Gerard Anthony "Gerry" Daly (born 30 April 1954) is an Irish former footballer who played in the Football League for Manchester United, Derby County, Coventry City, Leicester City, Birmingham City, Shrewsbury Town, Stoke City, Doncaster Rovers as well as the Republic of Ireland national team. ==Career== Daly was born in Cabra, Dublin, and started his football career in Drumcondra with local youth club Stella Maris. His first senior club was Bohemians, for whom he scored in the UEFA Cup away to Köln in September 1972.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.soccer-ireland.com/manchester-united/gerry-daly.htm )〕 In 1973, Manchester United manager Tommy Docherty paid Bohemians £20,000 for Daly's services.〔 In Daly's first season at Old Trafford, the team was relegated to the Second Division after finishing 21st out of 22 teams.〔 Despite this setback, Manchester United gained an instant return to the top flight with Daly being a key player.〔 He continued his good form into the 1975–76 season, playing in 51 matches, including the 1976 FA Cup Final.〔 Mid-way through the 1976–77 season, Daly was sold to Derby County for a fee of £175,000.〔 Daly was soon reunited his old manager Docherty, who was appointed manager of the Rams in September 1977. Although they did not get on, Daly remained with Derby until 1980.〔 Daly scored a famous penalty for Derby in 1977 against Manchester City where the penalty spot had to be re-painted during the game, due to the poor condition of the Baseball Ground pitch.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.footballsite.co.uk/Statistics/Articles/DidYouKnow23.htm )〕 During his time with Derby, Daly spent time on loan with the New England Tea Men of the North American Soccer League in 1978 and 1979.〔(NASL stats )〕 Following Derby's relegation in 1980, Daly signed for Coventry City, with whom he spent four seasons, including a spell on loan to Leicester City in 1982.〔 He then spent a season at Birmingham City before signing for Shrewsbury Town in October 1985. His experience helped the "Shrews" remain in the second tier finishing in 17th position in 1985–86 and 18th in 1986–87.〔 This prompted Stoke City manager Mick Mills to sign Daly in March 1987. In 1987–88 Daly played 30 times for Stoke scoring three goals but fell out of favour in March 1988 and was released at the end of the season.〔 He then moved on to Fourth Division Doncaster Rovers where he spent the 1988–89 season playing in 44 matches.〔 He joined non-league Telford United in 1989 and later managed the club between 1990 to 1993. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gerry Daly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
