He was signed by Billy Lane[3] and played under George Curtis. Brighton & Hove failed to ward off relegation, however, and were demoted to the Fourth Division of English football at the end of the 1962-1963 season. He was sold by new manager, Archie McCaulay, as part of an end-of-season clear out.
He went on to play non-league football for Tunbridge Wells Rangers, Crawley Town, Hastings United and Southwick and in Australia for Victorian State League club Slavia.[2] After twice breaking a leg while with Southwick, he retired from football and later went into business in Florida,[2] where he currently resides.
