In a career spanning 25 years, Morrissey played for Coventry City, Torquay United, Crewe Alexandra, Chester City, Watford, Aldershot (who signed him in exchange for Roger Joslyn), Swansea City, Dartford, Hayes, Slough Town, Carshalton Athletic, Hendon, Chesham United, Dunstable Town and Southall. He also played for the Republic of Ireland at under-23 level.[2]
