Club career

Milne developed in Leeds United's Academy system, and was involved with the first team in the 2009 pre-season friendly matches.[2] On 26 November 2009, Milne signed for Darlington on loan for three months, at the same time as Chesterfield, defender Danny Hall and midfielder Paul Harsley.[3] Milne made his debut in the Football League on 5 December 2009, playing the whole of the 1–0 home defeat against Bradford City.[4] In his second game, a 5–0 defeat to Torquay United, he sustained an ankle injury and was replaced by midfielder Josh Gray.[5][6] He returned to Leeds to recover from his injury.

On 5 March 2010, Milne rejoined Darlington on loan until the end of the season.[7]

It was announced on 14 May 2010 that he would not be offered a new deal at Leeds and that he was free to find a new club.[8] He signed for Barrow AFC of the Conference National just two days before the start of the next season. After playing in the first two matches he lost his place in the team, and was soon loaned out to Gainsborough Trinity of the Blue Square North.

After impressing during his loan spell at Gainsborough, he joined Conference National side Altrincham F.C. on loan[9]

In January 2011 he signed for FC Halifax Town on a deal until the end of the season.[10] In May 2011 he was told by the club that we would not be offered a new deal and he was free to find another club.[11]

Personal life

In early 2010, Milne was living in Dunnington, near York. He attended Fulford School, in the York area.[12]
