Career

Born in Leeds, West Yorkshire, Maloney started his career at Doncaster Rovers.[2] He joined York City on a month's loan on 5 January 2005.[3] This loan was extended for another month in late January.[4] This was extended for a third month in late February.[5] Maloney was released by Doncaster at the end of the 2004–05 season.[6]

Following his release by Doncaster, Maloney went to the United States to play for the University of Montevallo men's soccer team.[7] After four years at the University he returned to England and was invited to pre-season training with former club Doncaster, although he stated he was looking to earn a contract with another former club, York.[8]

Following a successful trial he signed for Conference North side Harrogate Town on 27 July.[9][10] Maloney would make 33 appearances, scoring his only goal of the season against Vauxhall Motors. He went on to sign for Harrogate Railway Athletic.[11]

gollark: Probably should have done that earlier but I forgot.
gollark: I'll try and pin down the precise ToD before then then.
gollark: Great!
gollark: Is anyone available as a catcher in about two hours?
gollark: Here's version 1.8 of the DragonCave Egg Time Finder Firefox addon. Changes: it starts minimized by default because I realized the UI was actually pretty big, and I got rid of some debugging code which snuck into the build by accident. I'm pretty sure all the actual logic should work the same, but do mention it if there are any issues.EDIT: Please note that if you have queries or need support you should probably ping me; I'm not very active here so I won't see random references to problems and such but will be able to respond directly quite fast.
