He started his career at Stoke City but after loan spells at Alfreton Town[2] and Stafford Rangers[3] he was released at the end of the 2008–09 season.[4] It was then that he was snapped up by Burton manager Paul Peschisolido.[5]

Burton Albion

He made his debut on the first day of the 2009–10 season, starting in the 3–1 defeat to Shrewsbury Town.[6] He scored his first goal for Burton in a first round League Cup defeat at Reading on 11 August 2009.[7] He scored his first Football League goal in a 2–1 win over Grimsby Town on 10 October 2009. His goal turned out to be the winning goal for Burton.[8] He scored his second league goal for the club, 4 years after his first, in a 2–0 win over Torquay United on 22 October 2013.[9] His fourth goal for the club came against Bournemouth in the FA Cup on 14 January 2014.[10]
