Career
After being released after three years at Glentoran, 'Mags' joined Bangor, spending a successful season there, before signing for Crusaders in the summer of 2003. He initially established himself as first choice centre-back, but was loaned out to Comber Recreation in 2006, and it looked like his Crusaders days may have been at an end, yet managed to re-establish himself in the side.
He scored his first Crusaders goal on 20 December 2008 against Dungannon Swifts.[1] and his second against Coleraine F.C. on 23 November 2013. He missed the 2009 Irish Cup final due to suspension.[2] Despite this, he was still named in the 2008–09 Irish League Team of the Year, along with teammates Colin Coates, Gareth McKeown, and Martin Donnelly.[3]
