Paul Dalton was a professional footballer who played in the left midfielder position.
He started his career at non-league Brandon United, before moving to the academy of Manchester United. He failed to break into the frist team, so he was bought by Hartlepool United in 1988 for £20,000.
He made over 150 appearances for "The Pool", before he was sold to Plymouth Argyle for £250,000 in 1992, where he averaged nearly a goal every 4 games, before Huddersfield Town purchased him in 1995.
He had a hard time at the Alfred McAlpine Stadium, but he eventually found his feet and was Town's top scorer in the 1996-97 season. He had a short loan spell at Carlisle United in 1999, before leaving to join non-league Gateshead.
He currently works at Middlesbrough's academy.
