Green, a Sheffield Steelworker forged his career as a professional footballer at the second attempt. He joined Oldham Athletic in November 1928, but they did not think he would make the grade and released him the following summer. He drifted back into Non-League football with Mexborough Town, but Leeds gave him another crack at League football in April 1930. The presence of Internationals Bobby Turnbull and Harry Duggan kept him in the shadows, so he moved to Bristol City in April 1934, scoring once in twelve appearances. In June 1935, he signed for York City and was ever-present in his first season with them and scored eight goals. In March 1937 he joined Frickley Colliery.
