John Colin Askey (born 4 November 1964) is a former English footballer and current manager of Macclesfield Town. He is the son of former Port Vale player Colin Askey. ==Playing career== Askey was a youth player at Port Vale, but despite winning the club's Young Player of the Year award in 1982, he was never handed a first team debut.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mtfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10393~2153513,00.html )〕 He first joined Macclesfield Town in 1984 alongside his brother Bob to fill a gap when the club were short of players and went on to become a club legend. He remained as a player throughout the club's Northern Premier League title win in 1986–87 and subsequent promotion to the Vauxhall Conference. The successful times continued and John played a part in consolidation in the Conference, including a testimonial season in 1994 which featured a game against Manchester United, and then, in 1994–95 won the Conference title. The club were denied promotion that season, but John managed to add to his medal collection with a second Conference title two years later. Injury kept John out of the FA Trophy final win in 1996. John Askey turned to full-time football following the club's promotion to the Football League and continued as a regular part of the side who were promoted immediately to what was then known as the Second Division. As a League player, John played more than 170 matches, scoring 31 times whilst his non-League time with the club is often not reported by statistical sources. John's final match for the club came on the last day of the 2002–03 season against Rochdale. Although the match was meaningless in terms of either club's League position, it went down in Silkmen history when John followed up a Matthew Tipton shot to score in the 88th minute to level the scores at 2–2 before diving into the crowd to celebrate. Tipton himself then grabbed a late winner. By this time John was Assistant Manager to David Moss. 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「John Askey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
