Timeline
Desmond Lyttle (born 24 September 1971) is an English former football player and manager.
Born in Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, Lyttle started his professional football career with Leicester City in 1990, but after failing to make the first team, he was released at the end of 1991.
He started his career with Leicester City, but dropped into non-League football with Worcester City in 1991.
Lyttle was picked up by Worcester City in August 1991 on a free transfer.
He spent one season with Worcester, and a number of good performances alerted bigger clubs of Lyttle's ability.
In July 1992, he joined newly-promoted Second Division club Swansea City from Worcester for a fee of £12,500.
He spent a full season with City, and was part of the team that defied the odds to finish fifth in their first season back in the Second Division.
Lyttle made 46 appearances for Swansea and found the net on one occasion.
A good season earned him a move to Welsh side Swansea City, and in 1993 he moved on to Nottingham Forest.
After six years with the club, including a spell in the Premier League, he signed with Watford.
After just a season he switched to West Bromwich Albion.
Lyttle was signed by relegated Nottingham Forest for a fee of £375,000 in July 1993 to become one of Frank Clark's first signings, following the end of Brian Clough's 18-year reign.
Lyttle was a member of the team that won instant promotion back to the Premier League in the 1993–94 season, finishing second in the First Division.
Forest finished in third place the following season, in their return to the Premier League, before falling to ninth-place in 1995–96 and then suffering relegation in bottom place at the end of the 1996–97 season.
Lyttle stayed with Forest, despite the relegation.
Forest however, lost some other players, noticeably Lyttle's defensive partner Stuart Pearce, who joined Newcastle United.
Manager, Dave Bassett still managed to guide Forest back to the Premier League at the first time of asking, as they won promotion as champions.
Lyttle stayed on at Forest for another crack at the Premier League, although he spent a month out on loan at Port Vale, but after a dismal start to the season, Bassett was fired in January 1999.
Forest then appointed Ron Atkinson in a bid to save the club, although he was unable to steer the club away from relegation and for the third time in seven seasons Forest were relegated as the bottom club.
Lyttle vied for the right-back berth alongside French import Thierry Bonalair, and he left to pursue his career elsewhere at the end of the season.
Lyttle then joined newly promoted Premier League club Watford on July 1999.
He failed to fit in at the club however, and was often a substitute.
He made only eleven appearances for the club.
In March 2000, Lyttle was sent on loan to West Bromwich Albion for the remainder of the season, signing just two days before the transfer deadline.
He helped ensure the club's survival in the First Division, and in turn earned himself a permanent contract in June 2000.
He was a regular in the squad during the 2000–01 season, employed by manager Gary Megson as a right wing-back, and combined well with Ruel Fox down the right-hand side to help Albion reach the play-offs.
The following season Lyttle lost his place to Slovakian Igor Bališ, with Lyttle used mainly as a substitute during the second half of the season as Albion were promoted to the Premier League.
In all, Lyttle made 67 appearances for Albion, his only goal for the club coming in a 3–1 home defeat to Fulham on 9 December 2000.
He began training with AFC Telford United, and was linked to a longer stay at the club.
During 2002–03 Lyttle slipped even further down the pecking order, managing only two starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League.
In 2003, he transferred to Northampton Town, and a year later he left the Football League for the second and final time, signing with Forest Green Rovers.
Following the club's relegation back to the First Division, Lyttle was released by the club in May 2003.
However, he joined Northampton Town in November 2003.
He spent the remainder of the 2003–04 season with Northampton, making a total of 27 appearances before leaving at the end of the season.
His next move was to Conference National side Forest Green Rovers in September 2004, after rejecting fellow Conference club Burton Albion.
He transferred to Worcester City in 2005, before joining Tamworth in 2007.
In 2010, he was appointed caretaker manager at Tamworth, before being made player-manager on a full-time basis.
He resigned the following year, claiming he was being undermined by the club's directors.
He was appointed manager of Hucknall Town in October 2011, before departing seven months later.
He later had a spell as first team coach at York City, before becoming the head football coach at Thomas Telford School.
