A striker, he began his career with Leeholme Juniors, before joining Bishop Auckland in 1972. In 1977 he joined Blyth Spartans and featured in their run to the fifth round of the FA Cup.

In 1982 he joined Carlisle United on a free transfer, then in 1985 joined Hartlepool United, again on a free transfer.

He later became assistant manager at Gretna, and then a coach at Newcastle Blue Star.[1] He has since managed several clubs, including Coundon,[1] Crook Town,[2] Bishop Auckland,[3] Willington,[3] West Auckland Town[4] and Blyth Spartans.[citation needed]
