PositionForward

This young Macclesfield striker remained a favourite with the club's supporters in 2000-01 for his goal-scoring ability and unpredictability although he mostly featured from the subs' bench. His pace within the 18-yard box upsets defenders and he certainly has an eye for goal, scoring regularly with a mixture of headers and close-range efforts. However, Damien was placed on the Moss Rose transfer list shortly after David Moss took over as manager.
