Career

Price began his career with Leicester City, but his contract was not renewed through his latter term and undertook a month's loan at Boston United in February 2003.^[1] Price then featured in Darlington's pre-season fixtures of 2003, earning him a short-term contract and kept a clean sheet in each of his first three of his 39 League and League Cup appearances for the Quakers.^[2][3][4] He was nonetheless allowed to move to Harrogate Town in 2005, joining Gateshead a year later in 2006,^[5] only to be hit with a serious injury after a mere 8 games and then represented Bridlington Town.
