Graham John Anthony (born 9 August 1975) is an English former professional footballer who played as a midfielder for Sheffield United, Swindon Town, Plymouth Argyle and Carlisle United in The Football League.

Career

Born in South Shields, Anthony was a trainee at Sheffield United but failed to make the breakthrough into the first team squad, making only three league appearances as a substitute.[1] After brief spells at Swindon Town and Plymouth Argyle he settled at Carlisle United where he played regularly for three seasons.[1][2]

He subsequently dropped into non-league football before retiring some time after 2006 to run a guest house in Cumbria.[1]
