Career

In 1984, O'Brien signed for hometown club Southend United on non-contract terms, after playing for Maldon Town and Tilbury. After new manager Bobby Moore was appointed Southend manager, O'Brien was invited to train with the first team. On 10 November 1984, O'Brien made his Southend debut in a 2–1 home victory against Peterborough United.[2] Following another ten Football League appearances for Southend,[1] O'Brien dropped back into non-league, playing for Chelmsford City, Dartford, Barking, Hitchin Town, Wivenhoe Town and Great Wakering Rovers.[3]

gollark: Not RNG...
gollark: BUT that would take... ten years? or so.
