Danny Coid
Daniel John Coid (born 3 October 1981) is an English former professional footballer.
Born in Liverpool, Merseyside, Coid started his career with Blackpool in 1995 as 14-year-old . He then signed a 2-year YTS before making his professional Debut at Bloomfield road in the 1998/99 season. He signed his 1st professional contract with the Seasiders in 2000.
He was part of the Blackpool team that won promotion from the Third Division by winning the play-off final in 2000–01. On 25 March 2002, he signed a new two-year contract, with an option for a further two years. He scored in the final of the 2003–04 Football League Trophy, as Blackpool won the competition for the second time in three years, beating Southend United 2–0. In September 2002, the Sunday Mirror newspaper claimed that Coid was being watched by scouts from Liverpool, with them having seen every home match he had played up to that point in 2002–03, with Ron Yeats regularly at Bloomfield Road. However, late in the season, and after being a regular starter in the first team, he signed a new two-year contract on 24 March 2003, with an option for two more years at Blackpool. Coid said of the decision to sign the new contract, "I am pleased to have signed, I can now concentrate on my football. I never wanted to leave and I am delighted to have everything sorted out."
In the 2003–04 season, Coid scored three goals in as many games in one week for the Seasiders. The first came on 17 January 2004 in a 3–0 win over Wycome Wanderers at the Causeway Stadium in the Second Division; the second came three days later in the Northern area semi-final of the Football League Trophy at Bloomfield Road when Blackpool beat Halifax Town 3–2; and the third came on 27 January in a home league match against Oldham Athletic, which the teams drew 1–1.
In April 2005 Blackpool, under then-manager Colin Hendry, activated Coid's two-year contract extension option; however, Coid suffered a broken ankle eight months later, in a League One match against Tranmere Rovers on 11 December, and needed an operation. In October 2006, Coid was again out of action, when he suffered a knee injury that kept him out of action for three months.
On 27 February 2007, Coid returned to the Blackpool team after being out injured since 14 October 2006. On 27 May 2007, he was an unused substitute in Blackpool's League One play-off final victory over Yeovil Town at Wembley. Quashing rumours that he would leave the club in the summer, Coid signed a new one-year contract on 15 June 2007 with an option for another year. On 7 May 2008 Blackpool, Coid activated the option to extend his contract with the club by a further year. Coid said of the contract extension: "Just to be part of Blackpool still means a lot to me."
In the 2008–09 season Coid made eighteen League appearances as Blackpool spent a second season in the Championship, but was used mainly as a utility player covering for various positions in the team. After his contract expired at the end of the season, speculation arose that Coid might be released. However, he was offered a new contract, and on 19 June 2009 he signed a new two-year deal with an option for a further year.
"Everyone knows how much this place means to me. I'm not one of those lads who needs to go around kissing the badge – I've been at Blackpool since I was 14 years old and the club means everything to me, it's as simple as that."
