[5] He then suffered a serious injury and was loaned to Boreham Wood to aid his recovery.

He moved to Dagenham & Redbridge in May 2004 for a £20,000 fee – a club record for Bishop's Stortford [6] [3] – and was part of their side that won promotion to the Football League in 2007. He made his Football League debut on 11 August 2007, in Dagenham's first ever Football League game, a 1–0 defeat away to Stockport County.

On 11 May 2009, Southam was released by Dagenham and Redbridge after agreeing a mutual departure with manager John Still. [7]

On deadline day in the January 2010 transfer window, he joined Conference National club Histon on an 18-month contract. However, amidst financial trouble, Southam agreed a mutual termination of his contract at Histon at the end of the 2009–10 season. [10] Southam joined Barnet in June 2010. [11] He made his debut on the opening day of the 2010–11 season in a 2–1 loss at Chesterfield and scored his first goal for the club from the penalty spot in a 2–2 draw at Morecambe on 25 September 2010. [12] [13] He left Barnet at the end of the 2010–11 season. [14]

In August 2011, he joined Dover Athletic on a one-year contract. [15] At the end of his contract in May 2012, Southam left Dover, signing for fellow Conference South side Eastleigh. [16]

After skippering the Spitfires to promotion, Southam left Eastleigh on 3 July 2014 and joined Conference South side Chelmsford City a week later, [17] before signing for Basingstoke Town on dual registration terms with Farnborough. [18] Southam was released by Basingstoke Town in April 2016, [19] signing for Brighton-based National League South side Whitehawk in September 2016, to play under his former manager at Eastleigh, Richard Hill [20] Southam joined Farnborough for the 2017–18 season.
