He was watched by Sheffield United and scored in a trial game for Lincoln City late in the 2007–08 season. But it was Macclesfield Town manager Keith Alexander who secured his signature on 27 June 2008 when he joined the Silkmen on a one year deal. Harvey had also been tracked by League Two side Morecambe in January 2008.[2] He joined Macclesfield Town in League Two in June 2008.[3] He returned to Retford on loan in 2009, and then returned permanently in July 2009 after being one of the 13 players released by Macclesfield. On May 29, 2010 it was announced that Neil had signed a contract with Marine FC[4]
