Club career

edit

Stockport County

edit

Born in Salford, Mainwaring, came through Preston North End's Centre of Excellence youth system before signing a 12-month contract with Stockport in June 2008.[1] This was with the intention of being part of the development squad while trying to establish himself in Stockport's first team by the end of the season.[2]

He made his debut for the club on 30 August 2008, coming on as a substitute in a 0–3 defeat against Scunthorpe United.[3] Hard work in the development squad was rewarded with a string of full first-team games in late January 2009, and Mainwaring scored his first professional goal in a 4–1 victory over Hereford United on 31 January 2009.[4] Despite playing on the left wing throughout his youth career, he has preferred playing in central midfield for Stockport.[2] He was rewarded with the club's young player of the year award and with a contract extension in May 2009.[5]

Mainwaring was injured in a friendly pre-season match against Grimsby Town on 25 July 2009, spelled a lengthy period out of the matchday squad, being out of action for 9 months with a broken leg, in January 2010 he told the Stockport Express "I've been out for five months and I'm desperate to get back. I'm not back in training yet but I'm doing a lot of running and strength work and I've been doing a lot of exercises to rebuild my calf muscle.[6] In September 2011 he was released by the club by mutual consent having not featured in the team for the 2011–12 season.[7]

Hull City and Stockport return

edit

He went on trial with Hull City in November 2011 and subsequently signed a contract with the club in January 2012. But he returned to former club Stockport County on loan.[8] He stayed at the club until April 2012 and was subsequently released by Hull.[9] In September 2012 he re-joined Stockport on non-contract terms.[10] and in October he signed on contract terms until 1 January 2013.[11] He finished the 2012–13 season having played 31 games,[12] scoring just the one goal, scoring in a 3–1 win over Barrow.[13]

Hyde

edit

On 3 August 2013, he signed for Conference Premier side Hyde following Stockport's relegation to the Conference North.[14] He made his debut for Hyde on 24 August 2013, in a 2–2 drawe away at Wrexham.[15] On 28 November, he went on a month's loan to Conference Premier rivals Macclesfield Town.[16]

Chester

edit

In February 2014 he joined Chester on non-contract terms[17] and was added to the squad for the rest of the season.[18]

Stalybridge Celtic

edit

In July he joined Stalybridge Celtic[19] and retired on 28 October to become a professional boxer.

Mainwaring has been a member of the Republic of Ireland U19 squad,[20] after the Football Association of Ireland found out that he had Irish lineage on his father's side of the family.[21]

Personal life

edit

In 2004, Mainwaring won the chance to appear on the Children's TV show, 'Really Bend it Like Beckham' where he appeared as a young hotshot. He got the chance to meet at-the-time Manchester United player David Beckham.[1]

Speaking after the programme in 2004, David Beckham said: "What I think impressed me about Matthew was when he was up against another of the hotshots Mollie, he was giving her a little bit of a chance, whereas some young kids wouldn't care. They just want to do their best and go straight through whether it's a girl or a boy. But that's what impressed me, he was a caring person. He was congratulating Mollie and saying well done to her. That's what I realised and recognised throughout the day ... and he's a great talent of course."[1]
