English - Biography
- Broke into the Coventry City first-team for his debut at the end of the 2003/04 season, when he came on as a late substitute in the final match of the season against Crystal Palace. Giddings represented England at all youth age groups up to under-19 level, but missed out on the 2005 Under 19 European Championships because of injury. Giddings struggled once again with injury during the 2007/08 season. Once he regained fitness, he was sent out on loan to Oldham Athletic. New Coventry manager Chris Coleman announced that Giddings would be one of eight players whose contracts would not be renewed at the end of the season so he was released. In September 2008, Giddings joined Hinckley United debuting in the 4–1 FA Cup second qualifying round home victory over Solihull Moors. In November 2009, Giddings left Hinckley United to go on a week-long trial with Darlington where he earned a contract until the end of the season. Following the conclusion of the 2009/10 season he was released by the club.
