Signed from league rivals Kettering Town as the first signing for the 2006-7 campaign. Burgess has made a number of appearances in the Football League for both Northampton Town and Queens Park Rangers before his career was cut short by a serious knee injury. It was at QPR that he scored his first career goal in a 4–0 win over Swindon Town.[1]
But non-league football has seen him return to his best once again and he has been a regular scorer from the middle of the park in recent seasons. A versatile player who can operate on the right hand side and in a central role.
