Comment
Rangy forward given his first taste of the main show by Peter Taylor in a LDV Vans tie, he rewarded the faith with a debut goal. Continued good form saw Clayton complete a successful loan spell at Harrogate Town, score goals-a-plenty for the reserves and in February 2003 earn a first team call-up and a two year professional contract.  After a mixed 2003-04 pre-season Clayton joined Scarborough and Halifax on loan to gain further experience.  Spent much of 2004-05 on loan at Harrogate Town before being released that Summer.
November 2002 - Harrogate Town (loan)
August 2003 - Scarborough (loan)
February 2004 - Halifax Town (loan)
July 2004 - Harrogate Town (loan)
June 2005 - joined York City
After a goal-packed season in the Conference with York, Donaldson was given the chance to return to senior leagues with Scottish Premier side Hibernian.  But that lasted a season and a week, as Clayts made an early season move to Crewe in August 2008, where he carved out an unlikely reputation as a lower league goal machine, prompting a move to League 1 Brentford in June 2011.
