Timeline

2010

Thornley's spell at Huddersfield brought mixed fortunes. In his first season they finished 10th in the First Division and in his second they finished eighth (being in contention for a play-off place right up to the last match of the season), but in his final campaign they suffered relegation to the Second Division.

2008

Alongside his younger brother, Rod, a striker, Thornley played for Witton Albion in the Northern Premier League between 2008 and 2010. Rod is also employed by Manchester United as a sports therapist.

2006

He spent a season with Bacup Borough before joining Salford City at the beginning of 2006.

2004

Ben then joined Halifax Town on non-contract terms in March 2004, ending his professional career just before his 29th birthday to play in the Conference.

2003

Thornley signed for Bury in September 2003, but was released less than two months later after making just five appearances.

2002

He returned to England and signed for Second Division club Blackpool on an 18-month contract in November 2002, but was released from his contract at the end of the 2002–03 season.

2001

In August 2001 he signed a two-year deal at Aberdeen, which gave him another crack at top division football – this time north of the border in the Scottish Premier League. In 30 appearances for Aberdeen, he scored three goals – the opening goal in a 4–2 victory against Motherwell, and both goals in a 2–0 victory over Kilmarnock. He also scored in the Scottish Cup against St Johnstone, and in the Scottish League Cup against Queen of the South.

1998

After loan spells at Stockport County and Huddersfield Town, Thornley finally left United on a free transfer in May 1998 and went on to make 127 appearances for Huddersfield Town, scoring 8 goals and helping them come close to a First Division play-off place – and the chance of a place in the FA Premier League. From June 1999 until November 2000, he was playing under former Manchester United teammate Steve Bruce, who was Huddersfield's manager. When Bruce was dismissed, his successor was another former Manchester United player – Lou Macari, who had left United before Thornley joined them.

1997

In 1997, Thornley sued Marker and Blackburn Rovers for millions over the tackle, claiming a loss of earnings that resulted from him being kept out of the Manchester United first team because of the injury.

1996

In 1996, he won three caps for England at U-21 level.

1994

Thornley made his debut for United on 26 February 1994 as a substitute in the Premier League match against West Ham United which ended in a 2–2 draw at Boleyn Ground.

A quick and tricky right-footed left winger, he was highly regarded by Alex Ferguson and at one point was expected to become a regular player at Old Trafford. Although he did make nine league appearances for United, serious injury and increasing competition for places prevented him from making the expected impact at first-team level. The most notable injury came in April 1994, when he suffered knee ligament damage in a reserve match against Blackburn Rovers due to a reckless tackle by opposing defender Nicky Marker; the injury kept him out of action for over a year. This came days before the FA Cup semi-final against Oldham Athletic, for which Alex Ferguson was reportedly considering selecting Thornley (at least for a place on the bench) in case Ryan Giggs was not fully fit. Thornley was not fit again until the start of the 1995–96 season. He was rated by contemporaries including David Beckham (one of the players who went on to eclipse him in the first team), as well as club legend and former youth coach Nobby Stiles, as one of the finest young players at the club during that era.

1991

Thornley was born in Bury, Greater Manchester. He is most widely known for his career as a youth and reserve team player at Manchester United, where he played in the left wing position from 1991 to 1998 (becoming a professional in 1992 after helping United win the FA Youth Cup) but was occasionally used as a striker.

1975

Benjamin Lindsay Thornley (born 21 April 1975) is an English former professional footballer who played as a winger. He played in the Premier League for Manchester United, in the Football League for Stockport County, Huddersfield Town, Blackpool and Bury, and in the Scottish Premier League for Aberdeen.
