Biography: An England schoolboy international hailing from Merseyside, was picked up by United when he left school. After making his way through the junior teams, he was selected for the Central League side. He was a FA Youth Cup winner in 1963-1964 season. His only appearance for the first team came in place of the injured Denis Law for an FA Cup tie against Chester in January 1965, which saw him score in a 2-1 victory. But frustrated by a lack of first team opportunities, he asked for a transfer and moved to Wrexham, managed by former United star Jack Rowley. He emigrated to Australia in 1974 and after he finished playing for local clubs in the Sydney area, he worked for a couple of pharmaceutical companies as a supervisor in the manufacturing process. For over a decade, he has been running his own carpet and flooring retailing business based in Shelly Beach, New South Wales.
