He helped the club to promotion in 1995 and 1999. He played primarily as a fullback but, due to his versatility, played in virtually every position on the field for Walsall. After only six months at Wycombe, he joined Northampton Town for a fee of £10,000 on a two-year contract, saying, "It has been a strange experience for me. I went to Wycombe last March but they have changed their system and I have been a victim of that. Lawrie Sanchez said he wanted me to stay but [Northampton manager] Kevin Wilson was a big factor in my decision." He made 43 appearances for Northampton in two seasons After Northampton were relegated at the end of the 2002–03 season, he was released by the club and retired from the game.
