Career

Born in Bishop Auckland, Naisbitt began his career as a trainee with Middlesbrough, joining Walsall turning professional in 1997, but failed to make the Walsall first team and moved to Barnet in 1999. He had a loan spell with Carlisle United in August 2002[2] and was released by Barnet in September 2003.[3]

He joined Harlow Town, joining Brentford on non-contract forms as cover for Paul Smith in November 2003.[4] Later the same month he joined Cambridge City.[5] In June 2004 Naisbitt joined AFC Wimbledon,[6] leaving to rejoin Cambridge City in October 2005.[7] He left to join Histon in May 2007, making his competitive debut on 20 September 2007, in a televised game against Oxford United. In 2007 for Histon he kept 3 clean sheets and conceded 27 goals in 19 games, but despite that he kept his place over Marc Osborn in goal.

In March 2010, Naisbitt joined League One Brighton & Hove Albion, on loan until the end of the 2009–10 season.[8] On the season's conclusion he signed for Histon's near neighbours Cambridge United.[9] Naisbitt left Cambridge United on 15 May 2012 after the two parties failed to agree a new deal.[10]

In August 2012, he signed for Conference National side Braintree Town.[10]
