Ian Robert Bolton (born July 13, 1953) is an English former professional footballer, most renowned for his spell with Watford. He is currently a reporter on Sky Sports News.
Bolton was born in Leicester and began his career as an apprentice with Birmingham City. He turned professional on joining Notts County in March 1972. He moved to Lincoln City on loan in August 1976 and to Watford in August 1977 for a fee of £12,000.
He was described by Watford manager Graham Taylor as the best signing he made and played for Watford, in both midfield and defence, as they climbed from the Fourth Division to the top flight.
He moved to Brentford in December 1983, subsequently playing non-league football for Barnet and Kingsbury Town from whom he joined Hayes in 1987. After leaving Hayes he joined Chalfont St Peter.
He later turned to broadcasting, on the radio with Birmingham's Capital Gold and television presenting on East Midlands Today before joining Sky Sports.
