Having earlier been at Stockport County and Blackburn Rovers,  Fred Ingham made occasional appearances for Exeter City during the late 1970s after moving to the South West. He played for clubs such as Dawlish Town and Falmouth Town either side of his time with City. 

An apprentice with Stockport County, Fred moved into the full professional ranks in April 1972 and scored one goal in 19 league outings for County before being given a free transfer in August 1973 and signing for Blackburn Rovers. Fred never made the Blackburn first-team and had the misfortune to sustain a broken leg. He was eventually released and joined Witton Albion where he was leading goalscorer. Fred then moved to Devon and made appearances for Dawlish and Falmouth Town.  

Signed by Exeter City on non-contract forms in September 1977, he was given a full contract two months later and made his debut against Chester City on 2 January 1978. After making six appearances during 1977/78, he played twice during the following season before being released.
