He made his debut for Manchester United away to Gainsborough Trinity on 6 September 1902, before then scoring in three consecutive games, against Burton United, Bristol City and Glossop. His only other goal for the club came in a 3–1 win over Lincoln City on 8 November 1902. He left Manchester United at the end of the 1902–03 season, before retiring from football.
