Milsom began his career as a youth player at Fulham before he was promoted to the reserve team. During the 2005–06 season he played regularly for the reserves and also captained the side on several occasions.
Milsom made his league debut for Fulham on 18 February 2009 in a 3–0 defeat at Old Trafford against Manchester United, coming on as a replacement for Danny Murphy.[2]
After failing to break into the Fulham first team, and in order to gain some experience, he spent a month on loan at then Football League Two side Brentford in the second half of the 2007–08 season where he played six times. He returned to Fulham to make his full debut as a late substitute in the Carling Cup against Burnley. He again went out on loan, this time to Southend, making a further six appearances.
In March 2010, Fulham reported that Milsom will be joining Finnish club Turun Palloseura on loan from 19 April to 30 August 2010.[3]
Milsom signed for Scottish Premier League club Aberdeen on 13 January 2011 after a spell of 12 years contracted to Fulham.[4] On 22 April, Milsom signed a new two year contract with the Dons.[5]
