- Biography
- Josh was signed by Darlington after he failed to agree a new contract with Gateshead during the summer ahead of the 2016/17 season. Josh started his career at Northern League Sunderland Nissan, before moving on to Newcastle Blue Star, Blyth and Whitley Bay, for whom he scored in their 6-1 win over Wroxham in the 2010 Vase final. He moved to Gateshead soon after that final, and he was top scorer for them with 15 goals in the 2012-13, a scoring rate that earned him two England C caps and a move to Football League club Carlisle. In November 2013 he had a loan spell at Cambridge and then later another at Gateshead, whom he rejoined in the summer of 2015. However, after a good start at the club, he suffered a shoulder injury which meant that he missed most of the season.
