Born in Prescot, which was then in Lancashire, he joined Everton from school, and remained with the club for ten years, but played relatively infrequently; only in his last two seasons did he play more than 13 games a season for the first team.[1] He joined Birmingham City in 1976, spending two seasons with the club before finishing his playing career with Fort Lauderdale Strikers in the North American Soccer League.[2][3]
