Career

Chesterfield

Born in Sheffield, South Yorkshire,[3] Jackson started his career with Chesterfield after signing a three-year scholarship in 2003, before signing a two-year professional contract in April 2006.[4] He made his first team debut after coming on as a 71st minute substitute in a 3–1 defeat to Port Vale on 29 April.[5] He had loans with Matlock Town and Gainsborough Trinity, where he made four appearances during the 2007–08 season.[6]

Matlock Town

He joined Matlock permanently in August 2008.[7] He had a trial with Conference National team York City in July 2009 and played in the first-half of a 3–3 draw with Leeds United in a pre-season friendly.[8] He went on to score York's second goal in a 2–0 victory over Hartlepool United.[9] He was told to leave Matlock by manager Mark Atkins in October, who criticized Jackson's attitude and conduct after having a trial with York while still being contracted by Matlock.[10] He later had his contract cancelled by the club.[11]

Worksop Town

In February 2010 he signed for Worksop Town, initially until the end of the season.

Personal life

Jackson is half brother of Bolton Wanderers striker Kevin Davies.[4][12]
