Career
Playing career
After being told he was too short (at 5 ft 7) to play football by Doncaster Rovers, Walker played youth football with Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham United.[4] After a spell in non-league football with Bourne Town, he turned professional with Bradford City in October 1964.[5] He made 20 appearances in the Football League (scoring 1 goal) for Bradford City,[6] before returning to Rotherham United in March 1966.[5] He then moved to Sligo Rovers in Ireland later in 1966.[4]
He spent the 1968 season with the Los Angeles Wolves of the North American Soccer League, scoring 7 goals in 22 games.[7]
He later played for Mansfield Town, Altrincham, Stockport County, Chesterfield and Macclesfield Town.[1]
Coaching career
Walker worked as a scout for Liverpool and Rangers, and as a youth team coach at Leeds United and Nottingham Forest.[8] After leaving his role as Assistant Manager at Nottingham Forest,[2] Walker has held a number of positions at Doncaster Rovers, including Assistant Manager,[9] Director of Football,[10] and Caretaker Manager.[11] He was Director of Football at Doncaster from 2006 until July 2012 when he was released as part of the club's cost cutting restructuring after relegation from the Championship.[8]
A testimonial match was held by Doncaster Rovers on 1 August 2009 in honour of Walker.[12]
