Club career

"Cush" began his career at Ballymena United where he featured very little and in 2010 he moved to Lisburn Distillery and most notably won the League Cup in 2011 when they defeated Portadown[1]. Following Distillery's relegation, Cushley rejoined Ballymena United where he became famous for his long range goals, with his long distance strike against Linfield getting several thousand views online from Fox Sports[2]. Cushley also had his goal against Portadown in 2013 broadcast on Soccer AM. His most famous moment as a Ballymena player came when, in the Irish Cup against Cliftonville, with United losing 1-0 in the last few minutes, Cushley equalised with a deflected free kick and then almost immediately after scored a free kick to win the game. In January 2016, Crusaders beat off competition from Linfield to bring him to Seaview.[3]

In April 2018 Cushley assisted and scored in a 2-1 victory over Ballymena United which sealed the league title for Crusaders.[4]

gollark: Except for another computer and some network cards, but latency.
gollark: Well, it's a shame there's no way to have some sort of controller system group together a bunch of floppies so they can be accessed as one peripheral.
gollark: Hmm.
gollark: How much data do OC floppies store? 1.44MB?
