He then moved to Huddersfield Town, but suffered a serious knee injury, and lost his place in the Terriers team.
He made his debut for Rotherham in Division 2 (now Championship), scoring two goals in a 4–3 defeat at Nottingham Forest on Good Friday 1953, and was unlucky not to get a hat-trick in his first Millers appearance.
In the next season he scored a hat-trick in the Millers 5–2 victory over Derby County on 5 December 1953, and repeated his achievement in a 7-0 thrashing of Oldham Athletic in March 1954.
In the 1954/55 season he scored all four Millers goals in a 4–2 victory against Bury in September 1954, but his knee injury problems flared up again and he was made available for transfer in summer 1955.
