It was due to a shortage of central defenders that he was moved to centre-back, the position he plays today. erry made his Chelsea debut on 28 October 1998 as a late substitute in a League Cup tie with Aston Villa; his first start came later that season in an FA Cup third round match, a 2--0 win over Oldham Athletic.

He was charged with assault and affray, but later cleared.[18] During the affair, he was given a temporary ban from the England national side by the FA.[19] Previously, along with Chelsea team-mates Frank Lampard, Jody Morris, Eiður Guðjohnsen and former team-mate Frank Sinclair, in September 2001 Terry was fined two weeks wages by Chelsea after drunkenly harassing grieving American tourists in the immediate aftermath of the 11 September attacks.[20][21] During his early days at Chelsea, Terry shared a flat with Andrew Crofts.[22] Terry's brother, Paul (born 1979), is also professional footballer currently with Conference South side Thurrock F.C..

He and his wife Toni (née Poole)[50] are the parents of twins, Georgie John and Summer Rose, born on 18 May 2006 in Westminster, London.[51] Terry celebrated their birth when scoring for England against Hungary, when he performed a baby-rocking celebration. The couple married at Blenheim Palace on 15 June 2007.[52] In 2009, Terry was named "Dad of the Year" after he came top of a poll of UK adults in a Daddies Sauce survey.[53] Despite being a one club man with Chelsea in his professional career, Terry was a Manchester United supporter growing up.[54] Terry revealed in a 2005 interview that he has to go through about 50 superstitious rituals before each game.[55] Terry is one of a very small group of footballers to have been paid more than £1 million for their autobiography.[56] His deal with publisher Harper Collins was negotiated in 2004 by Chris Nathaniel of NVA Management.[57] My Daily Newspapers : http://goo.gl/CUghq Please Subscribe To Me On Youtube By Clicking On The Following Link: http://goo.gl/fqhE8B -- Copyright © Nawaf Dandachi
