In April 2005 he was given his chance within the Shakers first team after rave reviews from his performances for the reserve's and youth team.
Since breaking into the first team, David has gone onto make 173 appearances though has yet to find the back of the net - though it's not for the lack of trying. During his early days, he was known to have scored the odd spectacular goal or two for the second string.
