He made 24 appearances across his three years at Kenilworth Road and spent time on loan at Harrogate Town before joining National League North side Gloucester City and then Halifax.

Hide Ad“His career has gone really well. He’s had to take a step back to go again and in the last three seasons at Halifax, he’s just improved and got better.
“He’s got a real good mentality and he picked up a trophy last season with them, which was brilliant. Bringing people like him into the club - a winner, as well as his ability - I think it’s an excellent signing for us.”
