Unable to displace Michael Oakes in goal he was restricted to a couple of outings in the cup competitions before coming off the subs' bench on the final day of the season for an emotional farewell. A vastly experienced 'keeper he was released by the club at the end of the season and joined Bristol City. He began his League career with Preston North End, who he joined from Leyland Motors.
