Mark Hudson is a professional footballer who plays in central midfield for Coca-Cola League One side Huddersfield Town.
After failing to make a significant breakthrough into the Middlesbrough side, Hudson was sold to Chesterfield in 2003 after a short loan period there and at Carlisle United. He subsequently made a name of himself as a central midfielder at the Spireites.
Huddersfield snapped up Hudson on a free transfer in June 2005. After scoring a tremendous free kick against Bradford City, Hudson found it hard to cement a place in the Huddersfield central midfield, as he was up against captain Jon Worthington and youngsters Adnan Ahmed and Michael Collins. By the end of the 2005-06 season, Town manager Peter Jackson, started putting him in a holding midfield role.
On January 25, 2007, after several poor performances, the Huddersfield manager Peter Jackson put Hudson on the transfer list[1] and on March 3, 2007 Jackson announced on BBC Radio Leeds that he would never select Hudson or teammate Martin McIntosh again.[2]
Since the departure of Jackson, however, Hudson has returned to the side.
