[8] He went on to score eight goals in seventeen league (and three cup) games in 2010–11. [9]

In July 2011, he signed with Stafford Rangers of the Northern Premier League Premier Division [10] but left in October 2011 and joined Sutton Coldfield Town. The club finished 12th in the Northern Premier League Division One South in 2011–12, and then sixth in 2012–13 and 2013–14.

In the League Cup Vale defeated two Championship sides to reach the Third Round stage. They also exited the Football League Trophy at the Third Round, and the FA Cup at the Second Round, whilst the reserve team finished as Staffordshire Senior Cup runners-up.
