Career
Born in Nuneaton, Faulconbridge played youth football with Coventry City, before playing league football for Dunfermline Athletic, Hull City, Wrexham and Wycombe Wanderers.[1][2]
Faulconbridge notably scored a dramatic goal during the 1997–98 Scottish Premier Division season for Dunfermline against Celtic, a goal which denied Celtic the league championship that weekend.[3] Celtic eventually clinched the championship, which denied Rangers a tenth successive championship, on the final day of the season by beating St. Johnstone 2–0.[4]
He later played non-league football with Wingate & Finchley, Maidenhead United, Oxford City, Carshalton Athletic and Woking,[5] before joining Didcot Town as a player-coach in June 2011.[6]
