Biographical Text

Exeter-born Jamie Harris made just over a dozen league appearances for Exeter City in the late 1980s having started as a trainee. He later played for Bideford and Exmouth.

Progressing via the Exeter City youth sides and becoming an apprentice, Jamie signed a full contract for the Grecians in August 1986. His first Football League opportunity came as a substitute when he appeared in a 4-1 defeat at Darlington in December 1987 although he had to wait until March 1988 for his first full start against Scarborough at St James’ Park when he scored the only goal in the 1-0 win.

Totalling five league starts - and four substitute appearances - in 1987/88, Jamie started one league game the following season (plus four more substitute appearances) ahead of being released on a free transfer in the summer of 1989. Joining Bideford for a short spell, he later switched to Exmouth Town and subsequently worked as a painter and decorator and for the Royal Mail.
