In 1984 when he was 19 years old, he began his football career at Alliance Premier League side Wealdstone. In 1986 he played one season with Swedish club IFK Holmsund, helping to lead the team to a Division 3 victory.

In 1986, he moved to full-time professional status with Wimbledon, who paid Wealdstone £10,000 for him. He scored on only his second appearance for Wimbledon on 29 November 1986, in a 1–0 win over Manchester United in the First Division. He was a member of the Wimbledon team which won the FA Cup in 1988, beating league champions Liverpool 1–0 in the final.

In 1989, he was transferred to Leeds United and was part of the team which finished as champions of the old Second Division, winning promotion to Division One.

After just one year at Stamford Bridge, he was back with Wimbledon in the 1992-93 season, when the FA Premier League had just been formed. He helped Wimbledon equal their best ever league finish in 1993-94, when they finished sixth in the Premier League. Three seasons later, he contributed to another strong season for the club, who reached the semi-finals of both cups and finished eighth in the league. That season he scored the winning goal as Wimbledon won 1-0 against Arsenal at Highbury.

In 1998, he became a player/coach of QPR scoring on his debut against Huddersfield Town. On 14th December 1994 he made his debut under Mike Smith for Wales in a 3–0 home defeat to Bulgaria in the Euro 96 qualifiers. The last of his nine caps came on 29 March 1997 in a 2–1 defeat to Belgium in a World Cup qualifier, also at Cardiff Arms Park.
