Versatile Football League Veteran & Pro Project Promotions Athlete

Why I'm Doing This


I have played nearly every position in football. I adapted. I endured. I kept showing up.


Now I am using that same mindset to help others find stability and direction. That is what this is about.

Career Highlights


I was never the typical player. My strength was versatility. I played across defence, midfield and attack whenever the team needed it.


Throughout my career, I played for a number of clubs across the Premier League, Championship and beyond, including:


  • Colchester United

  • Reading

  • Sunderland

  • Charlton Athletic

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers

  • Portsmouth

  • Nottingham Forest

  • Brighton and Hove Albion

  • Rotherham United

  • Cardiff City

  • Southend United

  • Aberdeen

  • Waterford


Every club taught me something different. Each challenge shaped the way I view the game and my life beyond it.

Life After Football

The quiet hit me. I had spent years chasing the next game. Suddenly, there was no matchday, no build-up.


But I have learned to enjoy a slower pace. I have focused on supporting younger players and coaching wherever I can.


Football was just one chapter. The next one matters just as much

The Challenges I Have Faced


Letting go of competition is tough. It is part of who you are.


But I have channelled that energy into helping others find their rhythm.

The Support That Got Me Here


My teammates became brothers. That bond helped me through every phase of my career.


Now I want to create that sense of brotherhood for someone else.


Why I Am Supporting Pro Project Promotions


It is about movement. Positivity. New beginnings. I believe in second chances. That is why I am part of this.
