Former Bolton Wanderers striker Dean Holdsworth said he was “humbled and honoured” to receive an honorary doctorate from the University of Bolton.
Mr Holdsworth was awarded a Doctor of the University for his outstanding contribution to sport.
He said: “I know how powerful education is and we have to treat every child equally whether that is in education or sport.
“I am very proud to have such a strong relationship with the University of Bolton and honoured to be in front of such special people today.”
Mr Holdsworth received the Honorary Doctorate in a unique Covid-secure ceremony which was filmed for a special movie documenting this year’s innovative ‘Alternative Graduation’.
The University is one of the only ones in the UK to have invited graduands from this year and last to be presented with their degrees in person and their gowns, giving them the chance to have official photographs of their special day.
Mr Holdsworth joined Bolton Wanderers Football Club in 1997 for a club-record £3.5m.
He stayed at the club for five years and played a big part in Wanderers’ promotion-winning team.
Off the pitch, he was voted by his peers to become Chairman of the Professional Footballers’ Association, a position he held for three years.
After his career, he became the founder of the Non-League Footballers’ Association (NLFA), recognising the needs of lower league players and being a cushion of support in their careers through education.
Mr Holdsworth became the record-breaking manager of Newport County FC in 2010 with 103 points in one season and went on to manage more than 100 games in league football.

Salford and Eccles MP Rebecca Long-Bailey received an honorary doctorate from the University of Bolton and described it as “the greatest honour so far in my political career”.
Former Shadow Cabinet member Mrs Long-Bailey was awarded a Doctor of Social Science for her outstanding contribution to local and national politics.
She said: “I am staggered and really honoured. I am delighted to be a part of the Bolton University community.”
Mrs Long-Bailey received the Honorary Doctorate in a unique Covid-secure ceremony which was filmed for a special movie documenting this year’s innovative ‘Alternative Graduation’.
The University of Bolton is one of the only ones in the UK to have invited graduands from this year and last to be presented with their degrees in person and their gowns, giving them the chance to have official photographs of their special day.
Mrs Long-Bailey has been the MP for Salford and Eccles since 2015 and has served in the Labour Shadow Cabinet as Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Shadow Secretary for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and Shadow Education Secretary.
She has fought to alter the narrative on green economics to focus on the potential of the green industry to revitalise areas that had suffered from decades of industrial decline.
She has campaigned to use the power of new and innovative publicly-led business structures to distribute the prosperity generated to local communities.
Mrs Long-Bailey grew up in Manchester, close to Old Trafford football ground. Her interest in politics came at an early age, from seeing her parents and other local families' struggles.

What the fuck goes on at that university, who chooses these people and what have they ever done for Bolton (apart from missing a sitter at Wembley and screwing the club out of £1m from his £1 purchase of the club)???
