After 8 years with Perth Glory, Harold departed in January 2020 to join Central Coast Mariners on a short-term contract.[3][4] In July 2020, following the suspension of the 2019–20 A-League due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Mariners announced that Harold would not be rejoining the squad for the final four games of the season for personal reasons.[5]
