Autographs of Alan Curbishley
Llewellyn Charles "Alan" Curbishley (born 8 November 1957) is an English former football player and manager. He played as a midfielder for West Ham United, Birmingham City, Aston Villa, Charlton Athletic and Brighton & Hove Albion. He became manager of Charlton Athletic in 1991 and held the role until 2006, becoming the second-longest-serving manager of the club. He also managed West Ham United from 2006 to 2008, and had spells as both a technical director and coach at Fulham.
Curbishley was one of five children born to a London docker and his wife. He grew up a mile from West Ham station. He was educated at South West Ham Technical School. Curbishley is married. He is the younger brother of the rock band manager Bill Curbishley, who has been manager of The Who since the mid-1970s.
He began his football playing career with West Ham United, joining them as an apprentice on leaving school in the summer of 1974. After impressing in West Ham's South East Counties League side and owing to an injury crisis following pre-season training, he was named as substitute against Everton in August 1974 at the age of 16 and became the youngest-ever West Ham player to be named on the teamsheet, although he did not play. He made his first-team debut in a 1–0 home defeat against Chelsea in March 1975, coming into the team for the injured Billy Bonds, and in the summer, he was a member of the West Ham youth team, alongside Alvin Martin, Geoff Pike and Paul Brush which was beaten by Ipswich Town 5–1 on aggregate in the final of the FA Youth Cup.
