He joined their nursery club, Northfleet, in 1936 and played for Enfield in 1937 before signing for Second Division West Bromwich Albion in October 1937, making his Football League debut at Burnley in September 1938. He became a regular in The Baggies’ starting eleven during the final season before the Second World War, which substantially interrupted his career, and by the time of its outbreak he had scored 3 times in 36 appearances for Albion.

Wales lost the remaining two matches, 3-0 to England at Maine Road in November 1946 and 2-1 to Ireland.at Windsor Park Belfast in March 1947, however these proved his only caps for Wales.
He transferred to Second Division Sheffield Wednesday in March 1947 and spent the next 6 and a half years at Hillsborough, helping them to promotion as Second Division runners up in 1950, and, after their immediate relegation a year later, to the Second Division Championship in 1952. He remained a regular in the Wednesday first team as they consolidated their top flight status in 1952-53 before joining Newport County in November 1953 after 12 goals in 230 appearances for The Owls.
