About Stuart Nethercott
Stuart Nethercott (born 21 March 1973) is an English football manager and former professional footballer. As a player, he was a defender who notably played in the Premier League for Tottenham Hotspur, and in the Football League with Barnet, Millwall and Wycombe Wanderers. He also played at non-league level for Maidstone United, Woking, Heybridge Swifts, Wivenhoe Town and Welling United. He was capped eight times at England U21 level. Following retirement, Nethercott moved into management and has had spells in charge of Maldon Town, Ware, Heybridge Swifts and currently Coggeshall Town. == Playing career == Nethercott grew up through the ranks at Tottenham Hotspur and made his debut on 20 March 1993 in a 1–1 draw at Chelsea. He was sent on loan to Maidstone and Barnet for experience during the early 1990s and ultimately played 54 games for Spurs, playing in the side which reached the FA Cup semi-finals in 1995. Unfortunately, he was targeted by Everton as a weak link and was given a hiding as Everton romped to a 4–1 victory. He scored once for Tottenham, in a 3-0 FA Cup win over Altrincham in January 1995. For a while it looked as though Nethercott would be the long-term successor to the ageing Gary Mabbutt, but by 1998 he had fallen out of favour in the first team and was transferred to Millwall.
