Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on April 11, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Matt Holland! Just like your legendary midfield performances, may your celebrations today be tireless and full of class. Charlton Athletic fans still reminisce about those six glorious seasons when you bossed the pitch with style—your tackles sharper than birthday candles and passes smoother than icing on a cake.

Even though you've hung up the boots, you're forever etched in football folklore for that unforgettable goal against Cameroon at the 2002 World Cup. Here's hoping this year brings as much joy as you brought to fans throughout your stellar career. Cheers to another timeless classic from our favorite midfielder!
