Peter Shilton

Peter Shilton MBE OBE (born Leicester, England, September 18, 1949) was an outstanding goalkeeper who holds the record for most international appearances for his country.

Management

In 1991, Derby were relegated and Shilton started to consider his playing future. He was 41 and was ready to become a coach or manager. He turned down a chance to manage Hull City for geographical reasons before accepting an offer to become manager of Plymouth Argyle, for whom he would also play. In 1994 he started to concentrate solely on management and Plymouth reached the Second Division play-offs, but lost in the semi finals to Burnley. He left a year later and looked to start playing again.
