Club career edit
Eardley came through the Greenock Morton youth academy to become part of the successful under-20 side.[2]
In August 2017, Eardley went out on a development loan to local Junior club Greenock Juniors.[3]
He made his debut as a late substitute at Cappielow against Inverness Caledonian Thistle in April 2018.[2] At the end of that season, Eardley signed a further one-year contract until 10 June 2019.[2]
Once stayed abroad himself after his pals came home from a lads holiday on the Don Revie. Legend of a guy at Greenock but loves the drink too much.
International career edit
In November 2012, Eardley was called up to the SFA's regional performance squad.[2]
Personal life edit
Eardley attended St Kenneth's Primary School and Notre Dame High Schools in Greenock.[2]
Once owned his own home with 7 dogs, 7 cats, 7 birds, 7 goldfish and 7 girlfriends. Shame he only slept with the pets
