Club career

Manchester United, loans at Swansea City and Barnsley

Born in Coventry, West Midlands, Nardiello was a product of the Academy of Wolverhampton Wanderers, but signed trainee terms for Manchester United in 1999.[2] They were ordered by the Football League Appeals Committee to pay £200,000 as compensation. He progressed quickly through the clubs Under-17 and Under-19 teams,[3] turning professional on 22 October 1999. He made his debut for them on 5 November 2001 in a 4–0 Worthington Cup defeat to Arsenal.[2][4] In the 2002–03 season, he played in a UEFA Champions League match against Maccabi Haifa.[5][6]

After scoring twelve goals for Manchester United reserves, he was sent on a one month loan to Swansea City on 24 October 2003[7] where he scored one goal in a Football League Trophy defeat to Southend United.[8]

Nardiello spent the second half of the 2003–04 season on loan to Barnsley. He made his debut for the Tykes on 27 January 2004, scoring two goals as they beat Blackpool 3–0 at home.[9] He scored seven goals in 16 games during his loan spell at the club before returning to Old Trafford.[4] Having become a firm favourite with the Barnsley fans, he returned again to Oakwell on a season long loan for the 2004–05 season. Dogged with injuries, Nardiello still managed to play in 30 games, scoring seven goals.

Barnsley

In July 2005, Nardiello signed a two-year permanent contract with Barnsley after being released by Manchester United.[4][10] He scored two vital goals in Barnsley's League One play-off games. The first was the winning goal against Huddersfield Town in the second leg of the play off semi finals on 15 May 2006[11] and the second was the goal that fired Barnsley into a penalty shootout at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff against the club where he had previously been on loan, Swansea City, which Barnsley won 4–3 on 27 May 2006.[12]

Queens Park Rangers, back at Barnsley on loan

In June 2007, Nardiello turned down a new contract at Barnsley, and shunned interest from Norwich City to sign a two-year contract with fellow Championship side Queens Park Rangers,[13] in a move that was criticised by Barnsley's then chairman Gordon Shepherd.[14]

In January 2008, Nardiello returned to Barnsley on loan, the club he left in the summer of 2007. He signed a loan deal with Barnsley until the end of the 2007–08 season.[10] After scoring just one goal in thirteen appearances he returned to QPR in May 2008.[15]

Blackpool

Back at Loftus Road, Nardiello was linked with a move in July 2008 to fellow Championship side Blackpool, after struggling to make an impact at QPR.[16] It was believed that QPR offered the player, team mate Zesh Rehman on loan, as well as £250,000 in return for highly-sought after Blackpool defender Kaspars Gorkss.[17] The move was completed on 30 July when Nardiello signed a two year contract with the Seasiders.[18]

After being injured shortly after coming on in a pre-season friendly at Tranmere Rovers, Nardiello made his league debut for the club on 13 September, when he came on as a second half substitute as Blackpool beat his former club Barnsley 1–0 at Bloomfield Road.[19] He finally made his full debut for the Seasiders on 9 January 2009, again after recovering from injury, in their 1-0 FA Cup defeat to Conference National club Torquay United.[20][21]

Loan move to Hartlepool United

After missing most of the Seasiders' campaign through injury, on 29 January 2009 he joined League One club Hartlepool United on loan until the end of the season.[22] Despite scoring three goals in eight starts he returned to his parent club at the end of the loan period.

Back at Blackpool and Bury loan move

Nardiello scored his first goal for the Seasiders in a 2-1 win over Crewe Alexandra in the first round of the 2009–10 League Cup on 11 August 2009.[23] Four days later he made his first league appearance for Blackpool since 16 September 2008, as a second half substitute in a 1-1 draw with Cardiff City at Bloomfield Road.

He then underwent an operation to cure a hip problem[24] and did not play first team football again until he joined League Two side Bury on 13 November on loan until 19 December.[25] He scored on his debut the following day in a 3-3 draw with Notts County at Gigg Lane. He was denied a second goal when his shot stuck in a puddle, inches from the goal line, enabling County goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel to retrieve the ball.[26] He scored again in his second game, a 1-1 draw with Shrewsbury Town at the New Meadow on 21 November. His third goal came in his fifth match on 5 December, a 2-0 home win over Barnet. After scoring four goals in six league games, Nardiello was recalled by Blackpool on 14 December to cover for injuries.

Return to Blackpool and Oldham Athletic loan move

On his return to Blackpool, Nardiello was an unused substitute a number of games, before making his second league appearance of the season on 9 January 2010 as a 77th-minute substitute in a 1–1 draw with Cardiff City at the Cardiff City Stadium. He made a late substitute appearance in the 2–2 home draw with Queens Park Rangers on 16 January, then three days later Nardiello made his first league start for Blackpool - over 17 months after he signed for the club – in the 1–2 defeat at home to Sheffield Wednesday.

On 4 March, he joined League One side Oldham Athletic on loan until the end of the season.[27] Two days later, he made his debut in the 1–1 draw with Exeter City at St James Park. Three days later, on his home debut at Boundary Park against Leyton Orient, Nardiello tore his hamstring early in the second half and was stretchered off the pitch.

Nardiello was allowed to leave Blackpool at the end of the 2009–10 season.[28]

Exeter City

On 5 July 2010, it was announced that Nardiello had signed for League One side Exeter City. He scored his first league goal for the club on the 21 August 2010 at St James Park against Bristol Rovers. He scored a last minute winner against arch rivals Plymouth Argyle in a Football League Trophy match on 9 November. Nardiello signed a new contract at Exeter City in June 2011.

International career

Because of his mixed heritage, Nardiello could have played international football for Wales, England, Italy, Puerto Rico or the United States.[citation needed] He played at under-15 and under-16 levels for England.[3] However, in the end he decided to follow his father, Donato, who played twice for Wales in the early 1980s.[5] He made his first appearance for Wales in a friendly against New Zealand on 26 May 2007.[29] coming on as a 65th minute substitute for Robert Earnshaw.[30]
