Bradley Middleton (born 4 March 1989 in Somerset) is an English footballer currently playing with Bridgwater Town FC
Middleton worked his way up through the youth ranks at Cardiff City, captaining the U18's and the reserves on numerous occasions, although his only first team appearances for the team were in the FAW Premier Cup when he helped a reserve Cardiff side reach the semi-final in the 2006/07 season before being beaten by League of Wales side TNS.
On 19 December 2007, he joined Dorchester Town on a work experience loan deal until 29 January.[1][2] He made his debut for the magpies on 26 December in a 1-1 draw with Bath City.[3] He went on to play eight times for the club before returning to Cardiff.
He was released by Cardiff City at the end of the 2007/8 season.
After setting an up a number of trials with league teams, he unfortunately broke his nose in the 1st match whilst playing with Aldershot Res against Millwall Res. this unfortunately meant that he missed out on the latter part of the season (2007–2008)
It was announced 20 August 2008 that Middleton had moved to Conference South side Weston-super-Mare. After featuring in 2 pre-season games and then after four games had been played of the new season he was signed on a Non-contract basis. However after only being on the bench once in the subsequent four games and not having kicked a ball at all in the new season he decided that it was not in his interest to stay at the club.
After leaving Weston, Middleton found a new home with Southern League Division One South & West team Bridgwater Town.
