One notable game he played for Barnet was in the FA Cup against Chelsea in 1994, who were at the time managed by his older brother. He later worked in the used car trade and as a pub landlord before joining his older brother as a coach and scout at Wolverhampton Wanderers between 2004 and 2006. He died on 2 March 2008 after he was found collapsed in his home from what was initially suspected to be a heart attack but later confirmed as a brain aneurysm.
