Football career

Gary is a right back who graduated from Rochdale's Youth Team on 7 January 2004. He was voted "Young Player of the Year" in the 2005/2006 season, and consequently became a regular for the side in the 2006/07 season. However, injuries halted his career progress after suffering a cruciate ligament injury, and was released at the end of the 2007/08 season.

Court case

Gary was found guilty of drunken behaviour at Blackburn Magistrates Court on 18 December 2008 after using threatening behaviour towards a policeman whilst drunk on a Darwen football pitch. He was ordered to do 150 hours community service and fined £100.[1]
