Sid began his senior career with Crusaders, before joining Linfield in October 1986. He scored 27 goals in 184 games for Linfield, before he was surprisingly sold to old club Crusaders in 1991, remaining there as captain until 1997 when a cruciate knee ligament injury sustained against Cliftonville ended his career.
