Jon Hallworth

He left the club in 1997 to sign for Cardiff City on a free transfer. He was first choice goalkeeper for three years before being replaced by Neil Alexander. One of his most notable games at Cardiff occurred in December 1999 away at Cambridge United; Cardiff had picked up three red cards and were reduced to eight men. Cambridge were awarded a late penalty but Hallworth saved from Martin Butler to help his side secure an unlikely 0-0 draw. He left Cardiff in 2001 and went on to play for fellow Welsh clubs Newport County and Bangor City.

In 1989, he joined Oldham Athletic in a deal worth £75,000. He went on to spend the majority of his career at Oldham and was the club's first choice goalkeeper for most of his eight years there. He helped them reach the FA Cup semi-finals and the Football League Cup final in his first season, promotion to the First Division after a 68-year exile in 1991 as Second Division champions, and to another FA Cup semi-final in 1994. In both FA Cup semi-finals, the Latics held Manchester United to a draw before losing in a replay. He also helped the Latics survive three years in the top flight (FA Premier League from 1992) before relegation in 1994.
