[edit] Playing Career
[edit] Liverpool
Charnock began his career with Liverpool, and made his debut in 1992 in a Cup Winners' Cup game against Apollon Limassol. Charnock was just 17 years and 9 months old, which made him the youngest player ever to play for the club in European competition, breaking a record previously set by Jamie Redknapp one year earlier. Despite this promising start, Charnock did not break into the first team at Anfield.
[edit] Crewe Alexandra
In 1996 he left for Crewe Alexandra, following a successful loan spell. He spent six largely successful years at the Alex, playing in the third and second tiers, but his time was blighted by injury.
[edit] Later career
After leaving Crewe Alexandra in 2002, he spent a year with Port Vale. He also had a brief spell with Bury, before moving to Northern Ireland, playing for Linfield and Ballymena United. Again he suffered with injury, missing a whole year of action, and he returned to England in summer 2006, joining Fleetwood Town. A year later, Charnock signed for Conference North team Leigh RMI.
