John Francis Miles (born 28 September 1981) is an English footballer.
Miles, who is a forward, was a product of the Liverpool Academy, and progressed as far as the reserve team, [2] but in 2002 he was told he had no future at the club.
He joined Stoke City in March 2002, [3] with a short-term contract until the end of the season. He only made one substitute appearance for the club in April replacing Bjarni Guðjónsson in a league match against Bristol City. [4] He was released by the club in the summer.
He subsequently moved to Crewe Alexandra, initially on a monthly contract [5] before signing on a season-long deal in October. [6] He made his club debut in August against Colchester. [7] He scored his only goal for Crewe on New Year's Day in 2003 in a 2–0 win against Mansfield Town. [8] In total, he played nine games for Crewe, but struggled to establish himself in the first-team.
In March 2003 he was loaned out to Macclesfield Town. [9] [10] He scored four goals in eight games during his loan spell, including scoring on his club debut against Kidderminster Harriers [11] and twice in an away victory over Shrewsbury Town, where he scored the winning goal during injury time. [12]
He joined Macclesfield Town in a permanent move in May 2003 after a successful trial [13] [14] and he remained at Macclesfield Town until May 2007. [15]
Although offered a new deal at Macclesfield Town in the summer of 2007, he rejected the contract [16] and opted to move to instead to league two rivals Accrington Stanley on a free transfer. [17]
On 24 January 2008 it was confirmed he had completed a loan move to Milton Keynes Dons with a view to a permanent deal, [18] re-uniting with his former Macclesfield Town boss Paul Ince, though after 12 games and no goals his loan spell ended and he returned to Accrington Stanley. [19] On his return from loan he still has one year left on his contract, but over the subsequent season he played regularly and in June 2009 re-signed for the club on a one-year contract extension. [20]
In May 2010 he was offered a new contract by Stanley [21] but in June he signed for newly promoted Conference National side Fleetwood Town. [22]
During his time with Fleetwood he went on loan to Droylsden [23] He was not offered a new contract by Fleetwood at the end of the season and was released, along with a number of other players. [24]
In July 2011 he joined Stockport County [25] but was released by the club on 31 January 2012. [26]
His next move was to join Altrincham a few days later. [27] [28] He was named man of the match on his club debut in February. [29] He was released by the club at the end of the season [30] having made 11 first-team appearances.
In September 2012 he joined Warrington Town, [31] making his debut in a 6–1 away victory over New Mills [32] and scoring on his home debut three days later as they beat Curzon Ashton 3–2. [33]
