Football career

Millar started his career in Stoke City's youth academy system playing through from the youngest age bracket to the under 18's side where he failed to gain a YT contract. From there Millar went on several trials and open days to find a club resulting in his signing on with Macclesfield Town. He made his debut in January 2008 against Morecambe coming on as a substitute. In December 2008, Millar went to Stafford Rangers on a one month's loan spell. After impressing in his first month, his loan spell was extended to three months in which Millar was a valued member of the side contributing with two goals.

Millar signed for Buxton in August 2009 after being released by Macclesfield[2][3] despite being invited back by Stafford for pre-season training.[4]

He then joined Witton Albion[5] before moving to Leek Town in September 2010,[6] and then re-signing again on non-contract terms for the 2011 season.[7]

He left Leek in October 2012 having made 82 appearances scoring six goals.[8] He then moved to Newcastle Town.[9]
