Eddie Clayton (born 7 May 1937) is an English former footballer.[1]
Clayton most famously played for Tottenham Hotspur as an inside forward. After graduating from the Spurs academy he served mostly as a stand-in for the more expensive signings of Bill Nicholson's famous 1960s side, making over 100 appearances in the process.[2]
After playing at Southend United he joined non-league Ashford Town in 1970[3] and subsequently went on to captain Margate.[4]
