[edit] Career
Born in Bedford, Bedfordshire, Howe was educated in Bedford at Mark Rutherford School. He also has trained as an electrician. He was signed by Kettering Town in 2006 from his home town club, Bedford Town, after impressing for them. After scoring 25 goals and helping Kettering to finish as runners-up in the Conference North, he was signed by Peterborough United on 2 May 2007 for an undisclosed fee.[3] He scored his first Posh goal against Brentford in November 2007.
With few appearances in his first Peterborough season, Howe went out on loan at Rochdale. After impressing, Howe later joined Morecambe on loan for the 2008–09 season on 22 July 2008.[4] He returned to Peterborough on 28 April 2009, one game before the end of Morecambe's season.[5] On 3 August Howe signed a six-month loan deal with Lincoln City. He scored for Lincoln in their 3–1 defeat to Morecambe. In December 2009, he was sent back to Peterborough United after sustaining an injury.
On 20 January 2010, he joined Gillingham on loan until the end of the season.[6] He scored his first goal for the Gills in his twelfth appearance during a 3–0 win against Southend United on 5 April.[7]
