Joseph "Joe" Cardle (born 7 February 1987) is an English footballer who plays for Scottish Championship side Dunfermline Athletic. He tends to be played as a winger, and can play on either side.
Starting his career at Port Vale in 2005, he made occasional appearances in his three years as a senior player at the club. Following a loan spell with Clyde in 2007, he signed with Scottish club Airdrie United in 2008, winning that year's Scottish Challenge Cup. The following year he moved on to Dunfermline Athletic, and helped the club to the First Division title in 2010–11. He switched to Raith Rovers in March 2013, after Dunfermline Athletic hit a financial crisis. He helped Raith to win the Scottish Challenge Cup in 2014, and won a move to top-flight club Ross County in May 2014. He rejoined Dunfermline Athletic in July 2015, and helped the club to win the League One title in 2015–16.
Playing career
Port Vale
Born in Blackpool, Cardle played for Lytham Juniors in his youth alongside Joe Anyon. Both players signed for Burnley as schoolboys. In July 2003, 16-year-old Cardle signed for League One club Port Vale as an apprentice. Cardle made his senior debut on 10 September 2005, in a 2–0 defeat to Scunthorpe United. He made nine appearances in the 2005–06 campaign, and ten appearances in 2006–07. In May 2007, he signed a one-year extension to his contract.[1]
In August 2007, Cardle signed on loan for Scottish First Division outfit Clyde until Christmas.[2] He made his debut on 1 September against Dundee, but was sent off 25 minutes into the game.[3] He made ten appearances in all competitions, the final one being against Montrose in the Scottish Cup in November 2007. He was taken off with an injury, and failed to recover before his loan spell ended. Back at Vale Park, he played nine games in 2007–08.
Airdrie United
Cardle was released by new Vale manager Lee Sinnott in May 2008,[4] and subsequently returned to Scotland to join Airdrie United.[5] He played for Airdrie in the final of the Scottish Challenge Cup at McDiarmid Park, helping his new club to beat Ross County on penalties to claim their first trophy.[6]
Cardle was red-carded in his final match for Airdrie, against Livingston on 7 March 2009, after an on-field incident with captain Marc Smyth.[7][8] Cardle later said that "Big Marc got me mixed up with another Airdrie player who had lost possession which led to their [Livingston] fourth goal... Marc's verbal onslaught mistakenly directed at me, made me lose it".[3] Cardle left the Excelsior Stadium by mutual consent four days later, having made a total of 24 appearances on the right side of midfield for the "Diamonds", scoring three goals in cup competitions along with one league goal.
Dunfermline Athletic
In May 2009, Cardle signed with Airdrie's First Division rivals Dunfermline Athletic. On 23 January 2010, Cardle scored a hat-trick in Dunfermline's 4–1 win at Partick Thistle, after coming on as a substitute. He scored eight goals in 31 games over all competitions in the 2009–10 campaign. In 2010–11, he helped Jim McIntyre's "Pars" to promotion into the Scottish Premier League as First Division champions.[3] He also scored past Rangers at Ibrox in Dunfermline's 7–2 defeat in the League Cup.[9] However Athletic were relegated straight back out of the SPL in 2011–12, despite a late managerial change in putting Jim Jefferies in charge at East End Park.[10] He was made redundant by Dunfermline in March 2013 after the club suffered a financial crisis.[11]
Raith Rovers
On 31 March 2013, he joined Raith Rovers until the end of the season, after manager Grant Murray acted quickly to beat the player registration deadline.[12] In July 2013, Cardle signed a new contract to stay at Stark's Park for another year.[13] In February 2014, Cardle stated he had "fallen back in love with football" at Stark's Park.[14] He played in the final of the Scottish Challenge Cup at Easter Road as Rovers beat Rangers 1–0 in extra-time to claim his second winners medal in the competition.[15]
Ross County
Cardle signed a one-year deal with Scottish Premiership club Ross County in May 2014 as manager Derek Adams felt that he was "an out and out winger... very creative and direct which will suit our style of play."[16] He made his debut for Ross County on 10 August 2014, in a 2–1 home defeat against St Johnstone in the opening game of the season.[17] At the end of the 2014–15 season, Cardle was released by the "Staggies".[18]
Return to Dunfermline
After appearing and scoring for now League One side Dunfermline Athletic as a trialist against Berwick Rangers, Cardle re-signed for his former club in July 2015.[19] On his return, Cardle's first competitive goal came in a 6–1 defeat of Brechin City in the first league match of the season.[20] He scored a further 10 goals in 15 matches, including an important goal in the Scottish League Cup against Scottish Premiership side Dundee[21] and a hat-trick against Forfar Athletic.[22] In December 2015 however, he was sent-off against title rivals Ayr United for receiving a straight red card for violent conduct, shortly after he received a yellow card for simulation.[23] However, after appealing against referee Andrew Dallas' decision on the basis that there was no actual contact with Ayr player Peter Murphy, the card was rescinded.[24] He helped the "Pars" to win promotion as divisional champions in the 2015–16 season.[25]
Personal life
His brother, Scott, is a Lightweight boxer.[26]
