Career

Born in Lewisham, Greater London, Wilson came through the youth setup of the Crystal Palace where he had been since the age of 9. However, despite being reserve team captain he found first team opportunities limited at Selhurst Park and was sent on loan to Isthmian League First Division side AFC Wimbledon on a month-long loan. Wilson signed for Conference National club Rushden & Diamonds in July 2006, where he found himself a first team regular under manager Paul Hart. However, Hart was sacked later on in the season, and Wilson fell out of favour at the club when Graham Westley was appointed. In March 2007, he was sent out on loan to fellow Conference side Kidderminster Harriers for the rest of the season. In the summer of 2007 Wilson joined Crawley Town on a free transfer. In May 2012, Wilson was released by the club after being deemed surplus to requirements.
