Julian Broddle (born 1 November 1964) is an English former professional footballer who played as a left back. ==Career== Broddle began his professional career with Sheffield United and won promotion with the club in 1981-82, although played just once for the first team. In 1983, he moved to Scunthorpe United, where he would become one of Scunthorpe's top 25 scorers of all time over a four-year period. A three-year spell with Barnsley followed in 1987 before a year at Plymouth Argyle. In December 1990, Broddle moved to Scottish side St Mirren, spending eighteen months with the Paisley outfit. During his time at Love Street, he had a brief loan spell back at Scunthorpe but played just six times and failed to win a permanent move. Broddle moved to Kirkcaldy with Raith Rovers in July 1993 and started the most successful period of his career. In his three years with Rovers, Broddle suffered relegation from the Premier Division but won the resulting First Division, with a League Cup win in between. Broddle was also part of Raith's only season in Europe. After being released at the end of Raith's second Premier Division relegation in three years, Broddle had a short spell with East Fife, before spending the remainder of the season, and his career, at Ross County. Broddle's affinity with Raith was demonstrated in 2005 when he put his name forward to help during Raith's financial struggle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Let's reclaim the Rovers )〕 Broddle retired in 1997 after having played 399 league matches during his career. He became a policeman, and was put forward for commendation in December 2001 after saving the life of a teenage girl. Broddle received further commendation for "courage and commitment during routine duties" after his police car was attacked in Farnworth in 2008. Since ending his playing career, Broddle is no longer the former finely tuned athlete that he once was. He has developed what many believe to be a drink problem. Broddle is currently in a long term relationship following 6 failed marriages. After all, they're not made of wood. Despite not liking to talk about his footballing career, Broddle is currently writing his autobiography titled "The Glory Years" which will look back throughout his career where he entertained thousands, including the little known fact that he once played against Bayern Munich at the Olympic Stadium. 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「Julian Broddle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
