Dunfermline Athletic

While at Spartans at under-13 level, coach Paul Donnelly brought him to Dunfermline Athletic. where he spent four-years progressing through the club's youth academy before signing full-time with the under-19 squad in 2010. In 2012, he was promoted to the first team signing a one-year professional contract,[1] where he benefited from first team coaches such as Jim Jefferies, Neil McCann, John Potter, as well as goalkeeping coaches Brian Potter and Andy Goram.

During the 2012–13 season he was a regular in the under-20 side that reached the Scottish Youth Cup Final [2] against Celtic at Hampden Park on 1 May 2013. The Pars lost in the final 3–1, in which Goodfellow played the full match.

On 16 April 2016 East Fife drew 1–1 away to Clyde winning the league. Goodfellow made 19 league appearances in the 2015–16 season.
