Career
Born in Manchester, Lydiate who played as a right-back, began his career as a trainee with Alex Ferguson's Manchester United in 1990. After two years at Old Trafford, he joined Bolton Wanderers on a free transfer.
After averaging just ten league appearances per season for Wanderers in three seasons, in 1995 Lydiate was snapped up by Sam Allardyce at Blackpool for a fee of £75,000. He went on to make 87 appearances for the Seasiders in three years, before moving to the east coast to join Scarborough.
Towards the end of his stay at the McCain Stadium, Lydiate was loaned out to Rochdale. He was one of three players owed money by 'Boro upon their release from the club. A transfer embargo was placed on the club until the debts to the players were paid.[2] He later joined Finn Harps, before joining Hyde United in 2003, where he made 10 appearances.[3]
