Glenn Corcoran is an ex professional football player, now working as a licensed football agent with the company Code:4 Sports Ltd. (See www.thefa.com)

He started off as a schoolboy with West Bromwich Albion FC under the then manager Ron Atkinson and quickly developed as a very promising central defender under the tutelage of Ron Atkinson and Nobby Stiles.

Unfortunately injuries were to ravage his career and after suffering a double leg break as a teenager .... he moved to Swansea City FC and finished his modern apprenticeship with the South Wales Club. (see rothmans player guides 89 - 92)

A further injury, this time a broken leg and an achilles tendon rupture would ultimately end his career prematurely and after only a handful of appearances during a 3 year spell, saw him on the move again with brief spells at Wycombe Wanderers, Notts County and Walsall.

His injuries were never overcome and after 3 or 4 unsuccessful operations on the troublesome achilles injury, he announced his retirement at 24.
