PositionDefender/Centre back

Westwood gave some solid performances at the heart of the Hartlepool United defence in the 2000-01 campaign when he was one of the club's most consistent players.

An ever-present in what was usually a three-man central defence, he was a key figure for Pool providing stability at a time when other senior defenders were sidelined for long spells through injury.

He is a hard-working and stylish defender who has great composure on the ball.

With Hartlepool United heading the Third Division, Westwood extended his contract in February 2003 up to the end of the 2004-05 season.

Westwood joined Peterborough United in July 2007 with a three-year contract but was made available for transfer in May 2009.

He joined Wycombe Wanderers in July 2009 with a two-year contract.
