Liam Needham

Liam Needham (Born October 19, 1985) is a soccer player currently playing for Gainsborough Trinity.

He made his professional debut at Hillsborough on the 29th September 2004 coming on as a substitute in the 82nd minute in an embarrassing 1-0 defeat in a Football League Trophy match against Chester City. He said of his debut, "I'm disappointed to lose but to make my debut for Sheffield Wednesday is a dream come true." "I've supported them all my life. But the result is the most important thing of the night. I had butterflies in my stomach for a moment. I couldn't believe I was actually going on. It is a big thing for me which I have now reached. I have set my stall out, this is where I want to be - the first team. I've had my debut from the bench, now it's progressing. I want to get a start for the team now."

Liam never played for Sheffield Wednesday again and was released from the club later that year.He then signed for Gainsborough Trinity on a free transfer , briefly before impressive performances landed him a contract with Notts County , where he started twenty two games and played four as a substitute. After losing his place in the first team he was loaned back to former club Trinity and then later, returned there on a permanent basis in December 2006.
