James 'Jamie' Waite (born February 20, 1986 in Thailand) is a Thai professional football goalkeeper. He currently has signed for Premier League giants, Manchester City and has represented Thailand at full international level.
Waite, (the son of a British father and Thai mother), began his career as a junior in Thailand and made his debut for the national side aged just 15 years and 354 days when he came on as a second-half substitute in a game against Singapore in Bangkok. At the time it made him the second youngest player ever to appear in a full international.
His form for the Thai national team attracted the attention of Rotherham United with who Waite started a three year scholarship in 2003. He left Rotherham after just one year and subsequently played for a number of clubs, including Braintree Town, Leyton and Woking, before joining Kettering Town, moving on to Barrow in January 2005.[1]
He left Barrow to join Stevenage Borough in March 2005.[2] He joined Cambridge United in August 2005,[3] joining Chelmsford City on loan in September 2005[4] and moving to AFC Sudbury in January 2006.[5]
Waite joined Milton Keynes Dons in July 2006. He was unable to break into the Dons first team and was released in January 2007.
In August 2007 Waite signed for Conference South side St Albans City, but has now penned a deal with Manchester City.[6]
