Life and career

[edit | edit source]

Munday was born in Stratford, London, and raised in Shoeburyness, Essex. He played football for Essex Schools and attended Tottenham Hotspur's School Excellence before joining Brighton & Hove Albion as a trainee in 1989. He turned professional the following year, and made his debut in February 1992.[2] He is possibly best remembered for a goal from 30 yards (27 m) in the away leg of a 1994–95 League Cup tie against Premier League club Leicester City that Brighton, then a third-tier team, won 3–0 on aggregate.[3][4] Playing mainly as a right back, he made 107 appearances in all competitions, but his 1995–96 season was disrupted by a car accident and he was released.[2]

After leaving Brighton, Munday spent five seasons with Dover Athletic, combining semi-professional football with teacher training. He captained the team,[5] and made 135 appearances in the Conference.[6] He signed for Isthmian League club Kingstonian in 2001, but left after a few weeks citing work commitments.[7][8] In December 2002, he joined Great Wakering Rovers, another Isthmian League club.[9]

Munday has taught at schools including Shoeburyness High School and Palmer's College in Thurrock.[10][11] He is a committed Christian.[2][12]
