Career

Canning started his career at Kilmarnock, making his debut on 23 August 2001 in a 1–0 win over Glenavon in the UEFA Cup. His league debut came nearly eight months later in May 2002 when he replaced Shaun Dillon during a 2–2 draw with Dundee United.[1] However Canning struggled to establish himself in the side and was released by Kilmarnock in 2005, joining Stirling Albion.[2]

He remained at Forthbank Stadium for a short time, later joining Dumbarton,[3] where he established himself in the first team, making over 90 appearances in all competitions during a three-year spell. Despite helping the side to the Scottish Third Division title, Canning was released by the club at the end of the season, instead signing with Albion Rovers.[4] He made his debut on 25 July 2009 as a last minute substitute during a 2–0 win over Ayr United in the Challenge Cup, his first goal coming on 10 October in a 2–0 win over Elgin City.[5]

On 27 August 2010, Canning left Albion Rovers he left and now he is playing amateur football.[6]
