[edit] Career

Pilkington joined Stockport County in December 2006 from Atherton Collieries, and made an instant impact on the team, scoring three goals in his first four games for the club, including two against Shrewsbury Town at Gay Meadow. Pilkington then played a big part in County's record breaking run of results during January and February 2007.
