Career

Maskery was born in Stoke-on-Trent and played for the youth team of his local club Stoke City turning professional in 1982.[1] He made his debut away at Coventry City in December 1982.[1] He forced his way into the first team in 1983–84 and was a regular in 1984–85 playing in 36 matches.[1] Stoke however suffered an awful season being relegated with a record low points tally of 17.[1] Under new manager Mick Mills Maskery was first choice in midfield but injury against Sunderland at the end of November 1985 meant he missed the rest of the 1985–86 season.[1]

He made sporadic appearances in 1986–87 and was not offered a new contract by Mills at the end of the campaign.[1] Instead of joining another League side Maskery retired but he stayed local and made a U-turn and joined Stafford Rangers.[1] However, in 1990 he swallowed his tongue during a Rangers match and decided to retire from football again. He went on to join the Staffordshire Fire service.[1]
