Emmerson Boyce had a good season for Luton Town in 2000-01 despite playing in a struggling team and was a near ever-present missing just four matches.
A calm and cultured defender who is equally at home either as a full back or central defender, he provided some invaluable experience to help the youngsters around him.
He is quick, strong in the tackle and makes effective surging runs deep into the opposition territory.
He won the young supporters' 'Player of the Season' award as a reward for his efforts.
Emmerson's contract at Crystal Palace was extended to June 2008 in March 2005.
He joined Wigan Athletic in July 2006 with a four-year contract that was extended to June 2012 in July 2009 and to June 2013 in August 2011.
Emmerson joined Blackpool in August 2015 with a one-year contract.
