Anthony Charles "Tony" Capaldi (born 12 August 1981) is a footballer who plays for Northern Premier League Premier Division side Rushall Olympic as a defender.
Born in Porsgrunn, Norway, Capaldi won 22 caps for Northern Ireland at full international level, 21 of which were as a Plymouth Argyle player, a total that made him the club's most-capped international. He played in the Football League for Plymouth Argyle, Cardiff City, Leeds United, Morecambe and Oxford United. Capaldi can play in defence as a left back and in midfield as a left winger.
Born in Porsgrunn, Telemark, Capaldi began his career at Birmingham City, where he came through the youth ranks as a trainee. During his time at Birmingham he spent time on loan at Hereford United before signing for Plymouth Argyle near the end of the 2001–02 season without making a first-team appearance for Birmingham.
Capaldi was forced to sit out for much of the first part of the 2004–05 season after breaking a leg during a game, but in December 2004 he signed a two-year extension to his contract, extending his career with Plymouth until June 2007.
