This week Tangerine-Planet takes a look at the short Blackpool career of Michael Flynn and his previous sporting achievements which includes 9 other clubs.
Flynn started his career playing for Newport County. A move to League of Wales club Barry Town beckoned in 2000. After forty goals in two seasons, he moved to Wigan Athletic in the 2002-03 season.
Flynn spent a lot of his time on the substitutes' bench as Wigan won the Division Two (now League One) title. He made seventeen appearances in the league, fourteen of which came from the bench, and scored one goal. The next season did not start any better for Flynn as he started just one game and made seven appearances from the bench before he was loaned to then League One side Blackpool, where he started six times in the league and once in in the FA Cup before returning to Wigan.
In the January transfer window of that season, Flynn joined Championship strugglers Gillingham on a free transfer. Despite his instant success, and his three goals in sixteen starts, Gillingham were relegated to League One on the last day of the season.
Although injury affected his 2005-06 season, Flynn scored six goals. He took over as captain for the 2006-07 season season and became top scorer with twelve goals.
It was announced on 8 May 2007 that Flynn had been offered a new contract with Gillingham. He chose not to sign, and left the club when his contract expired at the end of June 2007.
On 5 July 2007, Flynn signed a one-year contract with Blackpool, with an option for a further year.[1] On 3 December 2007, Flynn scored his first goal for Blackpool in the club's 1-1 away draw against Scunthorpe United. [2] On 7 May 2008 he was released by Blackpool.[3]
On July 23, 2008, he became Stan Ternent's fifth signing at Football League One side Huddersfield Town. He along with 5 other players made his Town debut in the 1-1 draw against Stockport County at the Galpharm Stadium on August 9, 2008. On August 27, he scored his first goal for Huddersfield in the second round of the League Cup against Sheffield United. Town went on to lose the game 2-1. His first league goals for Town came in the 3-2 win over Northampton Town at the Galpharm Stadium on September 20, 2008.
