Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Wembley, London,[1] Blanchett started his career with the Queens Park Rangers youth system, where he played from 2002 to 2004.[2] He trialled with Wigan Athletic and Wycombe Wanderers before signing for Isthmian League Premier Division Northwood at the start of the 2004–05 season.[2] After failing to make any appearances he joined Isthmian League Premier Division rivals Hendon in December 2004, making seven appearances before the end of the season.[2][3]

Blanchett signed for Harrow Borough in the summer of 2005, and having scored 1 goal in 33 appearances signed for Cambridge City of the Conference South on 3 March 2006.[2][4][5] However, he returned to Harrow as injury cover later in the same month, making one appearance during a loan spell.[2][4] He finished 2005–06 with 10 appearances and 1 goal for City.[6]

He was a regular for City throughout 2006–07, however a challenge by a Newport County player cracked Blanchett's calcaneus.[7] Spending months on the sidelines, he finally returned to fitness after some light therapy sessions.[7]

Peterborough United

[edit]

Blanchett had a two-week trial at Liverpool starting in February 2007 and the Premier League club considered a transfer for the player, who was rated between £25,000 and £50,000.[8] Having made 24 appearances for City in 2006–07,[9] Blanchett was signed by League Two club Peterborough United for an undisclosed fee on 19 March 2007.[10] His debut came on 9 April 2007 as an 89th-minute substitute for George Boyd in a 2–0 home win over Mansfield Town.[11] His first goal for the club came on his third appearance with a 22-yard shot, playing the second half of a 3–3 home draw with Rochdale on 5 May 2007.[11][12]

The 2007–08 season saw him make his first start for the club, in a 9 October 2007 Football League Trophy tie with Milton Keynes Dons at Stadium mk.[citation needed] Milton Keynes won 3–1. He made his first league start against Macclesfield Town on 23 February 2008.[citation needed] He was deputising for Jamie Day, who had injured his back before kick-off, Peterborough winning 3–0.[citation needed] Indeed, he made just two appearances for the promotion-winning League Two team that season and was placed on the transfer list in May 2008.[13] He made just three League One appearances and also played one FA Cup match in 2008–09, before again being transfer listed in May 2009.[14]

In July 2009, he joined Port Vale for pre-season training.[15] He played 90 minutes for Vale in what turned out to be a pre-season friendly defeat, Vale losing 1–0 to Biddulph Victoria of the Midland Football Alliance.[16] On 7 August 2009, Blanchett joined Conference Premier club Stevenage Borough on a one-month loan,[17] but did not make any first-team appearances.[18] Blanchett joined League Two club Hereford United on 17 September 2009 on loan,[19] making his debut two days later in a 2–0 victory at home to Accrington Stanley.[20] He was played out of position at centre-back, but following the game said "Centre-back isn't my usual position – I've played left back all my life – but I find it quite comfortable".[21] He stayed on loan with Hereford until December 2010, making 16 appearances.[20]

In January 2010, he joined Conference Premier club AFC Wimbledon on loan until the end of the season.[22][23] He finished the loan with 12 appearances[24] and after returning to Peterborough was released on 30 April 2010.[25]

Crewe Alexandra

[edit]

He signed a one-year contract with League Two club Crewe Alexandra on 23 July 2010 after a successful trial.[26][27] Despite making 44 appearances in 2010–11,[28] he was released by Crewe on 12 May 2011.[29]

Burton Albion

[edit]

Following his release by Crewe, Blanchett began training with Championship club Derby County at the start of July 2011.[30] He signed for Burton Albion of League Two on 30 July 2011 on a one-year contract.[31] He was released on 8 May 2012[32] after making 16 appearances in 2011–12.[33]

York City

[edit]

Blanchett signed for newly promoted League Two club York City on 2 July 2012 on a one-year contract.[34] He made his debut in York's 2–2 draw away to Morecambe on 21 August 2012.[35] Having made four appearances for York, he was released by the club on 24 January 2013 after his contract was cancelled by mutual consent.[36]

Later career

[edit]

On 30 January 2013, Blanchett returned to Cambridge City, now playing in the Southern League Premier Division, on non-contract terms for the remainder of 2012–13.[37]

Blanchett signed for Conference South club Havant & Waterlooville on 26 June 2013.[38]

On 27 May 2016, Blanchett become new manager Rod Stringer's first recruit, alongside fellow former Havant & Waterlooville teammate Shamir Mullings, for National League South club Chelmsford City.[39] After departing Chelmsford at the end of the season, Blanchett signed for Hayes & Yeading United ahead of the 2017–18 season. After starting in Hayes' first seven games in all competitions of the season, Blanchett left the club.[40]
