Brian Borrows height - How tall is Brian Borrows?

He was voted Coventry City 'Player of the Year' for the 1989/90 season. He also secured a representative honour as an England 'B' cap in 1990.

Far from being a 'workmanlike' full-back, Borrows possessed a great cross and burst of speed which was used to great effect for forwards like Houchen, Speedie and Regis. He was also to play a key defensive role during the 1987 cup run, which included outstanding battling away displays against the likes of Stoke City (5th Round) and Sheffield Wednesday (6th Round). Coventry would later go on to lift the trophy for the first time in their 104-year history against Tottenham Hotspur. Unfortunately for Borrows, he twisted his knee just seven days before the 1987 FA Cup Final, and was forced to miss the game. As a result, his name was chanted many times that afternoon on 16 May 1987 from the Coventry sections of Wembley Stadium. He did however play a part in the Charity Shield showpiece versus Everton later that same year.

Brian Borrows was born in Liverpool. He signed for Coventry City from Bolton Wanderers in 1985 and apart from the rare injury was the club's regular right back for nearly a decade, missing less than 20 games. Whilst the era produced such terrace favourites as Gibson, Bennett, Regis and Speedie, Borrows fell into that category of player who quietly went about their business season after season to an exceptionally high standard. A right back who was gifted with first class spatial awareness and close ball control. In another era, (some City fans say at a more fashionable club) he might possibly have been an England squad regular.

Brian Borrows (born 20 December 1960) is an English former professional footballer who played as a defender from 1980 until 1999.
