Playing career

A former Arsenal trainee, he began his professional career at Blackburn Rovers, where his father, Ray Harford, was assistant manager to Kenny Dalglish. He was loaned out to Wigan Athletic at the start of the 1994–95 season, and made three Third Division appearances. He joined Fred Davies's Shrewsbury Town on loan in December, and played six Second Division games. He left Ewood Park at the end of 1995–96, despite his father having by then taken the management reins from Dalglish.
