About Andy Gosney
Born 1963. Andy Gosney is a British association football player.
Career Gosney was born in Southampton, Hampshire, and began his football career as an apprentice with Portsmouth in 1979. He turned professional in November 1981, but never established himself as first choice for the club because of the consistency of Alan Knight. Over a 13-year career with the club Gosney made only 60 first-team appearances in all competitions. He spent a month on loan at York City in 1991 before eventually leaving Portsmouth to join Birmingham City at the start of the 1992β93 season. Gosney moved in the opposite direction. He was stretchered off during his only appearance for Exeter, a 6β4 home defeat to Reading, with an injury that ended his career.
Gosney was credited by Anderton himself as the man who gave Darren Anderton the "Sicknote" nickname.
