he started his career at Coventry City but after only two substitute appearances he was released to scuttle around the lower divisions, mainly at Orient and Mansfield.
Jan Molby bought him in to score goals, something other similar forwards have failed to do in previous years, but injuries wrecked his season with us and it wasn't until near the end that he started to make some appearances.
Following our relegation back to the Conference Christie managed to get his fitness levels back during the close season and started to produce the goods for us. By the time he left to join Rochdale in January 2006 he had banged in 13 goals for us.
His time at Spotland was not a successful one though and he only scored twice in twenty games and returned to Aggborough at the end of August 2006 eventually re-joining us on a free transfer in January 2007.
