PROFILE
It was literally a red-letter day for Venison when he joined Liverpool from
Sunderland in July 1986 for J250,000. The full back wrote to every club in the old First
Division informing them that his Roker contract had ended and asking if they were
interested in signing him.
When Kenny Dalglish replied inviting him to Liverpool, he jumped at the chance.
Former England Youth and Under 21 skipper Venison had already earned himself a place in
the record books by becoming the youngest ever Wembley Cup Final captain. He led
Sunderland against Norwich City in the 1985 Milk Cup Final at the tender age of 20 years
220 days.
Wembley was also the venue for his competitive debut, a 1-1 Charity Shield draw
with Everton on his 22nd Birthday. His Anfield career was hampered by injury but in 158
appearances he won two League championships and an F A Cup winners medal.
Venison returned to his native North East to rejoin Newcastle for J250,000 in 1992
and two years later, at the age of 30 and playing in midfield, he won the first of two
England caps. He later joined Galatasaray and Southampton before becoming a television
football pundit.
