Career

Queens Park Rangers

Fleming began his career as a left back at First Division club Queens Park Rangers, making two appearances during the 1987–88 season.[3] He also made an appearance in Rangers' 1988 President's Cup campaign.[4] After just one appearance during the 1988–89 season,[5] Fleming departed Loftus Road.[2]

Brentford

Fleming joined Third Division club Brentford in July 1989.[1] He deputised for the injured Roger Stanislaus during the 1989–90 season and after the departure of Stanislaus in 1990, Fleming was expected to make the left back position his own in 1990–91.[2] He failed to secure a place in the team and was replaced by loanees Stuart Cash and Jim Carstairs.[2] Fleming rejected a monthly contract and departed at the end of the 1990–91 season,[6] having made 45 appearances and scored one goal during his two years at Griffin Park.[2]

Farnborough Town

After his release from Brentford, Fleming dropped into non-league football and joined Conference club Farnborough Town.[2] In 1992, he joined divisional rivals Woking and later played for Isthmian League Premier Division clubs Aylesbury United and Staines Town, captaining the latter club.[7]

gollark: I had issues porting my v1 config to the v2 caddyfile because the syntax was kind of ambiguous, and I posted on the forum and got a response eventually and stuff, but then it had annoyed me enough that I just renginced.
