Anthony Pilkington (born 6 June, 1988 in Blackburn, Lancashire) is an English football player. He plays for Stockport County, and plays on either wing or as a striker.

Career

Pilkington joined Stockport County in December 2006 from Atherton Collieries, and made an instant impact on the team, scoring three goals in his first four games for the club, including two against Shrewsbury Town at Gay Meadow. Pilkington then played a big part in County's record breaking run of results during January and February 2007.

Pilkington continued to help Stockport's push for the playoffs by scoring a further two goals in a season which saw County miss out on the play-offs only on goal-difference.

Pilkington scored the second goal for Stockport in their 3–2 win over Rochdale at Wembley Stadium, he also picked up the official man-of-the-match award as they were promoted to League One.

In January 2008 his brother Danny also signed for Stockport.

In October 2008 he was called up to the Republic of Ireland's under-21 squad, who he qualifies for through a grand parent.
