He definitely played for Longwell Green, not sure if he came directly from there now you mention it.
Just checked the Tim Clark bible. Longwell Green to Trowbridge to City.

Thanks for that Neil.
I'll not have a bad word say against him, as a key member of the 1989/90 Championship winning team, and a goalscorer in the Cardiff FA Cup misomemory. I was lucky enough not to see his return to MP, and I like to think that with his move into the Football League he made the most of his ability.

You were lucky. He was a totally different player. When he went to Wimbledon he was a Robbie Earle type attacking midfielder, the only problem was that they already had Robbie Earle. There's a good interview with him here.
