Career

Powell began his playing career at Tranmere Rovers, making a goalscoring debut for the club at the age of 17 on 1 March 1981 in a match against Torquay United.^[1] He left the club in 1984 having made 86 appearances for the Prenton Park club, scoring four goals.^[2] He went on to spend eight years with Bangor City, playing for the club in the first season of the Welsh Premier League.

In 1993, he took over as player-manager of Connah's Quay Nomads, where his playing career came to an end following a broken leg sustained during a game against Llansantffraid on the opening day of the 1996–97 season.^[1] After 14 years in charge at Connah's Quay, Powell took over as manager of Bangor City in 2007, replacing Steve Bleasdale.^[3]
