Josh Low began the 2000-01 campaign on a high by scoring the winner for Cardiff City on the opening day of the season at Exeter City.
His general play improved as he added composure and an ability to deliver the ball into dangerous areas to his electric pace.
He worked hard at the defensive side of his game and made the right-wing-back position his own.
He was voted Most Improved Player at Ninian Park and was also selected for the PFA's Third Division team.
Josh joined Oldham Athletic in August 2002 before joining Northampton Town for a club record £165,000 in July 2003 on a three-year contract.
He joined Peterborough United in January 2007 with a contract to June 2010 but was made available for transfer in May 2008.
Josh joined Cheltenham Town in August 2008 with a two-year contract but was made available for transfer in September 2008.
His contract at Cheltenham was extended to June 2012 in June 2010.
