Career

Fulham

Watts began his professional career at Fulham; however, he never went on to make a first team appearance for Fulham. In 2007, Watts signed his first professional contract with Fulham.[2] Yet, in the League Cup match against Shrewsbury Town, he was an unused substitute. He made a league appearance during a loan spell with Milton Keynes Dons in Football League Two.[3] On 10 September 2008, Watts signed a new contract with Fulham that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2010.[4] In April 2009 he signed for League One side Northampton Town, on loan until the end of the season.[5] He made a handful of appearances, but could not prevent Northampton being relegated, before he returned to Fulham. After starting the 2009/10 season in Fulham's first team squad, making the bench against CSKA Sofia and Manchester City, he departed the club.

Lincoln City

On 2 October 2009 he agreed to join Lincoln City on an initial month's loan,[6] becoming newly installed managed Chris Sutton's first signing for the club.[7] He made his debut in the club's 1–0 home victory over Aldershot Town the following day[8] and, after helping his side to two clean sheets in his first two games, his loan was extended until 2 January 2010.[9] Having impressed during his loan period, on 31 December 2009 the club announced that Watts had agreed terms on a permanent contract with the Imps that will run until the summer of 2012, joining for an undisclosed fee;[10] the paperwork being completed on 5 January 2010.[11] On 20 February 2010 his season was ended when he suffered a fracture of his left fibula in the 2–2 draw at Grimsby Town,[12] the injury seeing him undergo surgery to pin the fracture.[13] The following season, he returned to the side and scored his first and only goal for the club in a 4–3 win at Stockport County.[14]

In May 2011, he was made available on a free transfer by the club, after a mass clear out of players following relegation from the Football League.[15] On 27 December 2011 he departed Sincil Bank by mutual consent.[16]

Gainsborough Trinity

Watts signed with Conference North side Gainsborough Trinity on 6 January 2012[17] He was amongst the Trinity side that missed out on promotion to the Conference National after defeat to Nuneaton Town in the play-off final. He was released with three other players on 18 May 2012.[18]

Eastbourne Borough

Watts signed for Eastbourne Borough of the Conference South in October 2012.[19] He received the Manager's player and the Player's player of the year awards in his first season at the club, making 29 appearances in all competitions (26 league).[20] On 26 November 2015, he decided to take a break from the game to allow himself to recover from recurring injury problems.[21][22]
