Career

edit

After joining the club as an apprentice, Glozier signed professional forms with West Ham United in 1966. In 1969, following failure to make a first team appearance for West Ham, Glozier joined Torquay United. During three years at the club, Glozier made 57 Football League, scoring once.[1] On 25 October 1972, Glozier was awarded a testimonial by Torquay following a cruciate ligament injury.[2] Following his spell at Torquay, Glozier dropped into non-League football, playing for Guildford City, Dartford, Dover, Maidstone United, Gravesend & Northfleet and Hastings United.[3] In 1983, Glozier joined Crawley Town, making 132 league appearances, scoring twice, over the course of three years.[4] Glozier later joined Bishop's Stortford and Chelmsford City, making a singular emergency league appearance for the latter, becoming one of the club's oldest players in the process.[3][5]

Following his playing days, Glozier temporarily took up the role of caretaker manager at former club Gravesend & Northfleet.[6]
