Career edit

Cook was born in High Wycombe,[2] and joined Wycombe Wanderers at the age of 14,[3] and went on to make his Football League debut for the club on 17 August 2002, as a second-half substitute in a 3–3 draw at home to Mansfield Town.[4] He spent time on loan to Southern League clubs Weymouth and Cambridge City in early 2004,[4][5] and then joined Windsor & Eton of the Isthmian League at the end of the 2003–04 season.[6]

He followed manager Dennis Greene to Maidenhead United in February 2005,[7] moving on to fellow Conference South side Basingstoke Town for the 2005–06 season.[8][9] After a brief spell with Conference South Lewes and a loan to Worthing,[10] in October 2006 Cook joined AFC Wimbledon, where he spent the remainder of the 2006–07 season.[11][12]

Cook moved on to Staines Town,[13] where he stayed for two seasons. After a spell on loan to Boreham Wood at the end of the 2008–09 season,[14] he signed for Kingstonian of the Isthmian League before the 2009–10 season.[15] and joined St Neots Town of the United Counties League on a month's loan in January 2010.[16]

Shortly after moving on loan, Cook signed for Harrow Borough on 18 January 2010.
