From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ian Arkwright (born September 18, 1959) was an English professional footballer, playing primarily as a winger. He was born in Shafton, Barnsley, in Yorkshire.
Ian Arkwright began his career as an apprentice at Wolverhampton Wanderers, turning professional in September 1977. He failed to establish himself at Wolves however, and after only 4 league games, in which he failed to score, he was transferred to Wrexham for a fee of £100,000 in March 1980. In 4 years at the Racecourse Ground, he made 104 league appearances, scoring 10 goals. Towards the end of his time and Wrexham and effectively his league career, Ian moved to Torquay United on loan in March 1984, but made only two appearances for the Gulls, away to Chesterfield and at home to Mansfield Town on the 18th and 24th of March respectively, before returning to Wrexham.
