I made my premier league debut for Arsenal in March 1997 against Southampton winning 2-0 under the great Arsene Wenger. However despite Arsene offering me an additional two year contract I decided to move clubs mainly due to the fact that the England number one, the legend that is David Seaman, stood in my way.

I joined Queens Park Rangers in 1997, under the management team of Stewart Houston and Bruce Rioch (who were assistant manager and manager at Arsenal when I was there) for a fee of £250,000. I spent 4 years playing almost 180 league and cup matches and winning two player of the year awards. One of these awards was Players Player of the year which is a real honour for any professional footballer and more recently, on the 8th January 2017, I was honoured to be inducted into the Queens Park Rangers hall of fame, also known as "The Forever R's Club."

In the summer of 2007 I joined Kettering Town FC under Manager Mark Cooper. In our first season we went on to win the Blue Square North division gaining promotion to the Blue Square premier League. We managed to finish in the top half of the division. During the 2008/2009 season we had notable F.A. Cup victories against Lincoln City and Notts County, which resulted in a tie against Premier League Fulham FC managed by Roy Hodgson. We narrowly lost 3-2 in what was a tremendous effort for a non-league team. The following season we again had a successful run in the FA cup beating Hartlepool FC, this time earning a plum tie with Leeds United FC. Mark Cooper subsequently left his position as manager, and I took over as player manager. We managed to draw 1-1 at home, earning a replay at Elland Road. Unfortunately we lost away at Leeds in extra time, with a fourth round tie away to Manchester United awaiting the winner. The remainder of the season I managed to steer the team to a 6th place finish in the Blue Square Premier League. Sadly, I left in 2010 after a difficult period for everyone associated with the football club.
