[4] After leaving Stanley, Ged spent a short period playing for Radcliffe Borough before signing for Morecambe in November 2005,[4] making his debut against Cambridge United.
[citation needed] Signed by Harvey as a midfielder, Brannan was soon dropped by caretaker manager Sammy McIlroy, but eventually made the right back position his own, after filling in for an injury and putting in several impressive performances.
Brannan filled in central defence during the absence of club captain Jim Bentley through injury and made several appearances in midfield.
However, Cook was sacked from Southport before the move could take place in the January transfer window, and subsequently Brannan decided to stay with Morecambe.
[citation needed] On 2 November 2007 Brannan came out of retirement and signed for Vauxhall Motors and made his debut the next day at Rivacre Park in their home game against Worcester City.
Brannan received a call up by the Cayman Islands national team due to a loophole in the regulations, on 29 February 2000 along with several other league players including Barry Hayles and Wayne Collins, at the time both at Fulham.
