Life and career

Andrews was born in Andover, Hampshire, in 1976. He played youth football for Basingstoke Town and Fleet Town before joining Brighton & Hove Albion as a trainee in 1993. He made his senior debut in April 1994 in a Second Division match away to Cambridge United. He turned professional a year later, but never established himself as a first-team player. Of his 36 appearances, all but 5 were as a substitute. He was released at the end of the 1996–97 season, and signed for Bashley of the Southern League, where he spent four years. He later played for clubs including Dorchester Town, Weymouth, Andover and Amesbury Town.
