Marcus Gayle Biography

Marcus Gayle is one of the most popular and richest English-Football Player who was born on September 27, 1970 in Hammersmith, England, United Kingdom.

Born Hammersmith, London, Gayle started his career at Brentford in 1988, scoring 27 goals in 194 appearances for the Bees. He was loaned to KuPS in 1990, before becoming a regular player in the Brentford side under new manager Phil Holder in 1990–91, when the Bees qualified for the playoffs but lost to eventual promotion winners Tranmere Rovers in the semi finals. He played 33 games in the Third Division that season, scoring six goals. He was a key part in their Third Division title success for the 1991–92 season, scoring 6 goals in 38 games to give Brentford a place in the new First Division, as the old Second Division would be known from the start of the 1992–93 campaign due to the creation of the FA Premier League. The 1992–93 season looked as though it would be a successful one for the Bees, who entered the new year in 10th place and on the brink of the playoff zone, with all the talk at Griffin Park being about a second successive promotion and top division football for the first time since 1947. However, a collapse in the second half of the season saw the Bees relegated. Gayle initially remained loyal to the Bees, but on 24 March 1994 he linked up with his old Brentford striker partner Gary Blissett in a £250,000 move to Wimbledon, who were in the process of finishing a creditable sixth place in the Premier League. In May 2015, Gayle was inducted into the Brentford Hall of Fame.

Gayle was capped by England at U18 level but later decided to switch allegiance and play for Jamaica who he was eligible to represent through his father. When a player at Wimbledon, Gayle signed a contract in June 1997 with a clause that restricted him to only represent England at international level. Horace Reid of the Jamaica Football Federation complained to FIFA about the restriction and the FIFA Player Status Committee refused to recognise the clause and allowed Gayle to change allegiance to Jamaica in January 1998.

Marcus Anthony Gayle (born 27 September 1970) is an English-born Jamaican former professional footballer, who was most recently manager of Staines Town. Gayle’s primary position was as a striker but also played as a winger and central defender towards the end of his career. His most notable clubs included Wimbledon and Watford before he finished his playing career at AFC Wimbledon. He is a member of the Brentford Hall of Fame and made 230 appearances in two spells with the club. He won 14 caps for Jamaica and was a key player for his country at the 1998 World Cup tournament.

Gayle initially stayed loyal to the Dons in spite of their relegation, playing 32 league games and scoring three times in the 2000–01 campaign before he finally departed on 9 March 2001 in a £1million move to Scottish Premier League giants Rangers. He made his debut against Dundee United, adding just another three more appearances, before moving back down south to join Gianluca Vialli’s new look Watford side for £1million.

He started off brightly by scoring five goals in first 14 matches until a back injury hampered his season. He was as expected to leave, along with most of Vialli’s other unsuccessful signings, in the summer of 2002. However, he re-emerged as a centre-back under new manager Ray Lewington and won the Player of the Season award that year. He also scored in the club’s 2–1 defeat to Southampton in the FA Cup semi-finals and part of the group of players that deferred some of their wages to help the club out of their financial difficulties. Another good season followed in 2003–04 forging a good partnership alongside captain Neil cox, but injury plagued his 2004–05, and he left Watford two days after the sacking of Lewington in March 2005.

1997–98 was less successful. The Dons began the season well and were in the top five for much of the first half of the season, but a dismal second half of the campaign saw them finish 15th. Gayle was a regular player once again, appearing 30 times in the league, but scored just twice. Gayle’s form was good enough to make his debut for Jamaica in February vs Brazil in the gold cup and later featuring in the 1998 world cup in France that summer. He was their top scorer in 1998–99, scoring 10 league goals, but once again their good form tailed away to a late season slump and they finished 16th. He did manage seven goals in 1999–2000, but defeat to Southampton on the final day of the season and a surprise win for relegation rivals Bradford City over Liverpool meant that Wimbledon’s 14-year stay in the top flight was over. In seven years with the Dons, Gayle played 285 games scoring 48 goals.

He re-joined Brentford, his first club and made 37 appearances for the Bees helping them to two consecutive play off semi finals, scoring twice. Gayle was released from his Brentford contract on 17 May 2006.
