Chris Waddle Detailed Biography -

Christopher Roland Waddle (born December 14, 1960) was a famous English footballer of the 1980s and 1990s. Born in Heworth, near Gateshead, Waddle began his career as a midfielder at non-league Tow Law Town after being rejected at trials for Sunderland, Coventry City and Newcastle United. From working in a sausage factory he was eventually taken on by Newcastle in 1980 for £1,000. He did well at the club, scoring 46 goals in 169 appearances, and was picked for the England Under-21s. He was part of the team which won promotion to the top flight of English football in 1984, in an attacking trio of some quality alongside Kevin Keegan and Peter Beardsley.
