Club career

Sunderland

Born in Downpatrick, Northern Ireland, Carson began his football career at Killyleagh Boys before he joined Sunderland in 2004.[4] He then progressed the ranks at the club's youth system.[5] Carson then became a backup to fellow teenager Ben Alnwick for the final three games of the campaign.[6] As a result, he signed professional terms with Sunderland and then signed a one–year contract extension the following year.[7]

Ahead of the 2006–07 season, Carson made his Sunderland debut on 16 July 2006 in a friendly match, coming on as an 80th-minute substitute, in a 2–0 win against Rotherham United.[8] He continued to remain as the club's backup goalkeeper behind Alnwick and then Darren Ward.[9] At one point, Carson missed one match, due to family bereavement.[10]

He made his debut for Sunderland on 16 July, against Darlington in a 4–0 win. Later that year, with Craig Gordon out through injury, manager Steve Bruce urged Carson to push Márton Fülöp for the No.1 spot in the squad.[11] He signed a new contract with Sunderland on 22 October 2009 which would keep him at the Stadium of Light until 2012.[12] Throughout his Sunderland's career, Carson continuously remained as the club's backup goalkeeper.[13]

However, in the 2010–11 season, Carson suffered a shoulder injury during Sunderland's pre–season tour and saw him sidelined for several months.[14] After showing promise at Sunderland, he was released by the Premier League club on 19 May 2012.[15]

Loan spells from Sunderland

On 14 August 2008, Carson joined Chesterfield on a season-long loan deal.[4] He made his professional début in a 1–0 victory against Grimsby Town keeping a clean sheet on 23 August 2008.[16] Since making his debut for the club, Carson quickly established himself in the starting eleven, becoming Chesterfield's first choice goalkeeper.[17] This lasted until he was dropped in favour of Tommy Lee.[18] As a result, Carson was recalled by Sunderland early in January 2009 after a shortage of keepers due to injuries.[19]

Carson was loaned out to Lincoln City on 20 January 2011 until the end of the season.[20] Two days later on 22 January 2011, he made his debut for the club against Stockport County in a 4–3 win.[21] Since joining Lincoln City, Carson quickly established himself in the first team as the club's first choice goalkeeper.[22] As a result, he had loan spell with the club extended until on 23 April 2011.[23] This lasted until Carson was recalled by his parent club, in which he said it was a risky move.[24]

It was announced on 24 March 2011 that Carson joined Brentford on loan until the rest of the 2010–11 season.[25] He made his only appearances for the club, coming against Sheffield Wednesday five days later on 29 March 2011.[26] However, Carson suffered a knee injury that saw him out for the remaining Brentford's matches.[27] He was then recalled by the club on 21 April 2011.[28]

It was announced on 12 September 2011 that Carson was loaned out to Bury on a two-month loan deal.[29] The following day, he made his debut for the club, starting the whole game, in a 1–0 loss against Chesterfield.[30] Since joining Bury, Carson quickly established as the club's first choice goalkeeper.[31] However, on 3 November 2011, Carson was recalled by his parent club, in which he made eight appearances in all competitions for the side.[32]

Shortly after leaving Hull City, Carson was loaned out to Bury on a month loan.[35] He made his second debut for the club, starting the whole game, in a 1–1 draw against Leyton Orient on 25 February 2012.[36] Since joining Bury for the second time, Carson continued to regain his first choice goalkeeper role until he left the club on 1 April 2012.[37] By the time Carson left Bury, he made 17 appearances over two loan spells either side of his time at Hull.[38]

At the start of the 2013–14 season, Carson lost his first choice goalkeeper role after Manager Blackwell signed Brian Jensen, Rob Lainton and Reice Charles-Cook.[50] Having appeared on the substitute bench, he made his first appearance of the season, starting the whole game, in a 4–1 win against Cheltenham Town on 31 August 2013.[51] As a result, Carson was told by Blackwell that he can leave the club.[52] By the time Carson was loaned out, he made a total of five appearances for the side.[53] At the end of the 2013–14 season, Carson was released by Bury on 30 April 2014.[54]

Following this, Carson returned to Bury when the season was concluded.[64] Once he was released by Bury, there were speculation on whether Portsmouth would make a move to sign him on a permanent basis.[65] However, the club did not make an effort to sign Carson, as Manager Andy Awford opted to sign Paul Jones and Michael Poke instead.[66] Two years after leaving Portsmouth, he spoke about his fondness on the club.[67]
