Nathaniel Barrington Pinney (born 28 December 1990) is an English footballer who plays for Tonbridge Angels but is currently on loan at Dulwich Hamlet, south London's most exciting football team.
Club career
Pinney joined Crystal Palace and made his league debut on 11 April 2009, coming on in the 89th minute, as a substitute for Rui Fonte, in a 2–0 home defeat to Cardiff City.[2]
Having made only one other appearance for Crystal Palace, in a League Cup game against Yeovil Town in August 2010,[3] Pinney signed for Dagenham and Redbridge in October 2010 on a one-month loan and Conference South leaders Braintree Town on a short-term loan in March 2011.[4]
Pinney joined Ebbsfleet United of the Conference National on 5 November 2011 on an initial one-month loan. This was extended by a further month on 5 December 2011.[5] After impressing at Ebbsfleet his loan was extended to the end of the season, he has been used in a few roles, playing on both wings and as a striker. He was officially released by Crystal Palace on 30 April 2012.
Answering a call from newly appointed Carshalton Athletic manager Tommy Williams,[6] Pinney joined The Robins in October 2012. The forward hit 22 goals in 35 appearances overall for the Robins in a season dominated by the club's fight against the drop, eventually culminating in relegation on goal difference on the last day of the season.
Pinney gained some national notoriety in late 2012 when he was named in an interview by Crystal Palace and England winger Wilfried Zaha as the player he could not displace in the Palace youth set-up.[7] Two national papers, Daily Mail and The Guardian, carried the story and several local Surrey outlets picked up on it too.
