Otulakowski, Anton Had a fantasy football team way ahead of its time thanks to Match magazine. Otulakowski wore the number 11 shirt, rotating with Robert Wilson who’d worn 10 until I signed Neil Webb. Was a key part and fondly remembered player in the team that pushed Everton for the league title in 1987

Otulakowski, Anton He played with me at Southend United in the title winning team. He followed me to MILLWALL. We were both signed by George Graham. He bought a house round the corner from me in Thorpebay, Southend, Essex. I couldn’t get rid of him! But where is he now? Keep well my Old Mukka. David x

Otulakowski, Anton I can go back to junior school in and around 1964/65/66. I was at school with Anton at St Paulines RC school Dewsbury. I can always remember at the time him being a great gymnast and sporty type. It didn't surprise me to come across him again on a post at Facebook only last week
to discover his talent at football. Well Done Anton. Charlie Collins, Thailand

Otulakowski, Anton He used to train us at Southend United training ground. We played for a local furniture shop every Sunday back in the 1980s. The was a lovely caring man. A great footballer. Great talent. We played a match it was him alone against at least 6 of us. The ran circles around us and we couldn't get near him. He slaughtered us at least 10 to 0.
Great times.

Otulakowski, Anton He once featured in the Southend Evening Echo performing a somersault throw in - I recall he was a former gymnast. Roots Hall touchline was too tight to attempt in a real match though!

Otulakowski, Anton The announcer at Roots Hall would try several times to pronounce his surname - in the end it would be 'Number 4, Anton'

Otulakowski, Anton I used to support West Ham back in the day when he played for them. I fancied him rotten & used to shout & scream his name from the stand. One day I got a bit carried away as he came bliss to the barriers to retrieve the ball & started to run down the steps calling his name when a policeman stopped me & said 'right any more of that young lady & you're out'! I was almost a football hooligan! Lol. Still got a thing for him but never got to meet him unfortunately :( xx
Otulakowski, Anton I named my teddy bear after him!!
