In August 1996 he joined Carlisle United, but failed to appear in their league team. In August 1997 he joined Rotherham United, but again struggled to make regular appearances. He finally forced his way into the team towards the end of the 2000–01 season, at one point playing a career best six football league games in a row, as Rotherham won promotion.

In July 2001 he joined Lincoln City on a free transfer, [10] but played just five times in two years.
