[edit] Playing career
[edit] Early career
Born in Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire, Cadamarteri is a product of the Everton Academy and made his debut as a substitute at the end of the 1996–97 season, in a 2-1 defeat against Chelsea. Cadamarteri began the next season as a regular and scored four goals in the first three months of the season, including one in the Merseyside derby against Liverpool. That goal – in October – was his last in the 1997-98 season, although he featured regularly throughout the campaign. Cadamarteri featured prominently during the following season, again netting four league goals
In June 2001, Cadamarteri appeared in court on a charge of assualt,[1] admitting in Septmber he was "ashamed" about the incident.[2] He was found guilty[3] and charged £2,000,[4] with Everton subsequently announcing he was free to leave Goodison Park.[5] Despite interest from First Division clubs Stoke City[6] and Bradford City,[7] Cadamarteri remained at Everton and featured as a late substitute in November, starting a further two matches in January.
[edit] Post-Everton
In February 2002, Cadamarteri left Everton to join Bradford City on loan, making the move permanent after scoring on his debut.[8] Featuring in most of the remaining games that season, Cadamarteri only scored one more goal, netting in late April. After receiving community service in July for admitting conspiracy to pervert the course of justice in his previous court case,[9] Cadamarteri failed to score a league goal during the 2002-03 season, with a contract dispute adding to a frustrating season.[10]
After scoring three league goals during the following season, Cadamarteri began the 2004-05 season with Leeds United, agreeing a move in June 2004.[11] Appearing in only a League Cup match, the winger moved to Sheffield United in September,[12] scoring once before injury ended his season in March. At the end of the season, Cadamarteri made a return to Bradford,[13] where – despite featuring regularly – scored just two league goals.
After incurring a six-month drugs ban and subsequently being released in the summer, Cadamarteri had a trial with Barnsley[14] before signing for Conference National side Grays Athletic in December on non-contract terms.[15] At the end of December, Cadamarteri signed a six-month deal with Leicester City,[16] scoring once before joining Doncaster Rovers on loan.[17] He was released by Leicester in May 2007 after his contract wasn't renewed.[18]
He signed for Huddersfield Town on 1 June 2007.[19] Most of Cadamarteri's Town career was hampered by injury,[20] with the winger making no more than a dozen league appearances in each of his first two seasons. The 2008-09 season saw Cadamarteri feature regularly, playing over thirty league matches. During April 2009, it was revealed that Cadamarteri had rejected a new contract at Huddersfield, due to the terms in the contract, which only gave him the option of a second year, dependent on appearances. In May, he agreed a pre-contract deal with Scottish Premier League side Dundee United, reuniting him with Craig Levein, who managed him at Leciester.[21]
