He was to make just 3 League appearances during his stay at Springfield Park before being released at the end of the 1995/96 season. After retining from the game as a player he had a short spell as the assistant manager of Rossendale United before a stint as the goalkeeping coach at Manchester City’s youth academy. 

A bit of Dave Felgate trivia – did you know that he would have added to his solo international cap, but for the infamous Bobby Sands hunger strike in 1981?
