Belle played in the Football League for Chester City during the 2004–05 season, having signed in January 2004. He was red carded three times between September and January and only made one first-team appearance after this.
In January 2008, Belle signed for Northwich Victoria[2] but left the club later that year to sign for Chippenham Town who made Belle their record signing. Belle only spent a short time at Chippenham though after his contract was terminated due to breach of conduct in December 2008.[3] However the club still hold his registration meaning he cannot play for another English club without them compensating Chippenham (though he can still play for Welsh clubs in the English football pyramid).
In August 2011 he moved to Port Talbot Town.[4] In June 2013 he moved to Carmarthen Town
