A particular highlight came when Orient knocked Premier League club Fulham out of the 2005-06 FA Cup, a game in which Garner saved a penalty from Collins John to help his side progress.

[7] In May 2007, Garner turned down an extended contract at Leyton Orient to join League Two side Shrewsbury Town as their first choice goalkeeper.

[8][9] However, injuries led to Garner falling down the pecking order and having not played for the first team since November 2008, he left the club in January 2010 after reaching a financial agreement over the rest of his contract.

He left Cirencester Town in January 2016 after 151 appearances (including 51 clean sheets) citing the travel involved as his reason.

[19] Garner has been selected in the Wales national team on two occasions and won an international cap against Trinidad and Tobago in May 2006.

[20][21] Garner holds a BA Honours in Sports and Leisure Management, having graduated from Swansea Metropolitan University in 1999.
