Defender Darren Bradshaw joined the Diamonds in 1997 from Blackpool after a poor start to that season resulted in a need to strengthen the side at short notice. Bradshaw had a long career in the Football League, with spells at York City, Newcastle and Peterborough United after starting as an apprentice with his home town club Sheffield Wednesday. He had moved to York after being released by the Owls, joining Matlock Town, from where he was spotted on loan at Chesterfield.
His Nene Park career started well, and he quickly became a first choice centre back, playing regularly duing 1997-98 and the following season, before various injuries from the autumn of 1999 onwards restricted his chances in the first team for the remainder of his Diamonds career. He left the club in 2001, spending a brief period with Stevenage Borough before dropping out of the game.
