Michael Anthony Timlin (born 19 March 1985 in New Cross, London) is an English-born Irish international footballer currently playing for Southend United

Career

Timlin joined the Fulham Academy at a young age and has since spent loan spells at Scunthorpe United and Doncaster Rovers, first-team opportunities being limited at Fulham. Since making his debut in a cup match against Boston United in 2004, he has only played a few competitive games.

That debut season was otherwise one of frustration, as injuries to the back and metatarsal ruled the Irishman out for long period. Having initially played as a winger while at the Fulham Academy, he has now matured into central midfield, and captained the Ireland U-21s to victory in the 2006 Madeira Cup.

In November 2006, he joined League Two promotion chasers Swindon Town. He made his debut for Swindon against Bury on November 25. Timlin quickly became a favourite at the County Ground with his fantastic performances. He scored his first goal for Swindon at home to Notts County which earned them a point. Timlin's impressive performances saw Paul Sturrock attempt to extend the loan deal. Chris Coleman agreed to the extension on the terms that Timlin extended his full contract with Fulham.

On 13 March 2008, Timlin rejoined Swindon on loan for the remainder of the season making 10 appearances. On 3 May, mere hours after the conclusion of the 2007–08 League One season, it was announced that he had joined Swindon on a permanent two year deal. He officially joined his new club on 1 July 2008.[3]

Timlin began the 2008/2009 season in his preferred central midfield role. However, Maurice Malpas took Timlin out for the visit of Leeds United, and on his return to the squad a week later he appeared on the left side of midfield. Towards the end of October, Malpas' defensive minded approach hadn't appeared to work, Timlin was moved to yet another new position on the left side of defence to fill the gap of injured Jamie Vincent. Adapting well, Timlin also stood in as Captain in the absence of Hasney Aljofree. Maurice Malpas was sacked in November, and Timlin moved back to Central Midfield under caretaker manager David Byrne.

As Danny Wilson took charge Timlin was playing at left side of defence again, but after Wilson"s first game in charge Timlin was moved to left side of midfield and then back to central midfield. Timlin was ever present in the middle of midfield for the remainder of the season, only missing two games through suspension.

At the start of the 2010–11 season, Timlin signed a new one year deal. On 15 September 2010, Timlin joined League Two side Southend United on a one-month loan.

He signed a new two year contract with Swindon on 23 June 2011. On 31 August 2011 Timlin rejoined Southend United on loan for a 4 month spell.[4]

His last match on loan to Southend United was on Monday 2 January 2012 against Dagenham and Redbridge.[5] In the evening of Thursday 5 January it was confirmed that he would be moving to Southend for an 'undisclosed fee'[6]
