Retired footballer turned Hollywood actor, Vinnie Jones, is available for a range of media engagements, brand ambassadorial roles as well as after dinner speaking, guest hosting and much more. The Englishman played for, and even captained, Wales having qualified via a Welsh grandparent. During his playing years, Jones was a hard and battling midfielder for Leeds United, Sheffield United, Queens Park rangers, Chelsea but most notably Wimbledon. With Wimbledon, Jones won the 1988 FA Cup Final as part of the so called ‘crazy gang’ (the name the media gave to the Wimbledon team of that era) and turned out over 200 times during two separate spells with the team.
The tough demeanour he had on the pitch has become his trademark on the big screen, often playing gangster characters in films like Snatch, Gone In 60 Seconds, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and The Longest Yard. Vinnie has also released Respect, an album of blues and soul on Telestar, and often turns up on TV hosting programmes like The Friday Night Project, on Top Gear and as an occasional football analyst for Fox Soccer Sunday. Jones has also been used in Ladbrokes and British Heart Foundation adverts and in 1998 published his autobiography, Vinnie: The Autobiography.
