If not, I’ll look to go on loan.”[8] He moved on loan to struggling National League side Guiseley the following month.[9] He made his senior debut on 20 December, in a 2\u20131 defeat at Gateshead in the FA Trophy.[10] He made his league debut at Nethermoor Park three days later in a 1\u20131 draw with Aldershot Town.[11] Having established himself in the first-team for Paul Cox’s “Lions”, the loan was later extended until the end of the 2017\u201318 season.[12] However he was recalled by Forest manager Aitor Karanka in March 2018, after making 16 appearances.[13]He moved on loan to his hometown club, Lincoln City, in August 2018, after impressing manager Danny Cowley on trial.[6][14] He made his debut in the EFL Cup on 28 August, as the “Imps” fell to a 4\u20131 defeat at Championship side Blackburn Rovers.[15] However he failed to break into the first-team for the League Two leaders and was recalled to the City Ground in January 2019, having made only four further EFL Trophy appearances at Sincil Bank.[16]Port Vale[edit]On 14 January 2019, Crookes joined struggling League Two side Port Vale on loan for the remainder of the 2018\u201319 season.[17][18] Manager Neil Aspin state that “A natural left-footer in the defence is something we’ve not had and he’ll compete for a place”.[19] He made his debut in the English Football League in a 1\u20130 win at Crawley Town on 19 January.[20] He maintained his first-team place under new manager John Askey, impressing both playing on the left of a back three and at left-back in a back four.[21] Assistant manager Dave Kevan said that Crookes had good character and that the management team would monitor his availability in the summer.[22] Crookes was released by Nottingham Forest on 13 May 2019,[23] though his agent Phil Sproson revealed that he had received contract offers from Vale and another, unnamed club.[24] He signed a two-year deal with Port Vale on 31 May.[25]He began the 2019\u201320 season playing at left-back and said that he had been studying Liverpool full-back Andrew Robertson to improve his performance in the role.[26] He maintained his first-team place until a “freakish training accident” saw him sidelined in late-October.[27] He returned to training after a four-month layoff, but was unable to add to his 17 starts before the season was ended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England.[28][29]He struggled for playing time at the start of the 2020\u201321 season as he was behind centre-backs Nathan Smith, Leon Legge and Shaun Brisley in the pecking order, though impressed the management after filling in at left-back in the absence of Cristian Monta\u00f1o and David Fitzpatrick.[30] He scored his first goal in professional football on 30 January, in a 5\u20131 home win over Southend United.[31] He started new manager Darrell Clarke’s first two games in charge, playing left-back in a 4\u20134\u20132 and then left-sided centre-back in a 3\u20135\u20132 formation.[32] However he was one of 15 players released at the end of the season.[33]Grimsby Town[edit]He signed a one-year contract with National League club Grimsby Town on 9 July 2021; manager Paul Hurst said he had been aware of Crookes for some time and that former manager Clarke had spoken well of him.[34][35] He played 24 league games in the 2021\u201322 campaign, helping the “Mariners” to qualify for the play-offs with a sixth-place finish.[36] Grimsby secured promotion with victory in the play-off final, though Crookes was not in the matchday squad at London Stadium.[37] On 11 June, the club announced their retained list and confirmed that Crookes would be released upon the expiry of his contract at the end of the month.[38]York City[edit]On 30 June 2022, Crookes joined newly-promoted National League club York City, alongside Grimsby teammate Scott Burgess, both of whom had played under York manager John Askey at Port Vale.[39]Playing style[edit]Crookes has been described as “a left-sided defender equally comfortable playing left-sided centre back or at left back [who] can also play as a defensive midfielder if required”.[5]Career statistics[edit]As of match played 7 April 2023Honours[edit]Nottingham ForestReferences[edit]^ “Retained List 2016-17” (PDF).
