He went on to play for various teams in the football league including Newport County,[1] Cardiff City, Bristol City Swansea City and Merthyr Tydfil F.C. in the Conference League before moving into the Welsh football league with Barry Town.
At Newport County Boyle was selected in the 1986 Third Division PFA Team of the Year. He ended his playing career with player-manager roles at Ebbw Vale, Inter Cardiff and Cinderford Town.
