He joined Southern League club Fulham in October 1904 and was part of their back-to-back Southern League Championship winning teams of 1905-06 and 1906-07, by when he had scored 23 goals in 79 appearances for The Cottagers.

In February 1912 he joined First Division Middlesbrough and played 5 League matches between April and September, subsequently joining non league Newcastle City and then returning to Darlington in 1913 before his retirement.
