Ian Wright Biography

After all, until he made this programme, Wright had never sought therapy or talked about his childhood abuse with those who were in that room half a century ago. Nonetheless, he has become a loving and beloved husband and dad, so far as I can tell. On Match of the Day now, he cuts a mellow figure. How come he, rather than perpetuating the cycle of abuse, broke it?

On 18 May 2012, Wright was named as a first team coach at Milton Keynes Dons. [63] He left the role in 2013.

[119] Career statistics [ edit ] Club [ edit ] Appearances and goals by club, season and competition [120] Club On 17 April 2008, Wright quit his job on Match of the Day and criticised the programme for using him as a "comedy jester", saying "Fans want people who are dressed like them. They've got no one to relate to on TV and that's why I've said to them I don't want to do the England games any more." [87]In 2020, Wright was named TV/Radio Pundit of the Year by the Football Supporters' Association. [92] He won the award for a second time in 2022 as well as Pundit of the Year at the Broadcast Sports Awards and World Soccer 's Broadcaster of the Year. [93] Commercials [ edit ]
