ANDY Ellis has enjoyed a hugely successful career in football with highlights including two Wembley visits, but the midfielder looks set to quit Worcester City at the end of the season.

The 34-year-old is struggling to combine the demands of family, work and football, and admits he is unlikely to be playing at St George's Lane next year.

"I'm giving up at the end of the season. I spoke to John at the end of last year and said this was probably going to be my last season," he said.

"I'm just finding it hard with family life, work and the travelling.

"I'm 95 per cent sure I'm going to stop unless I suddenly get fresh legs or become a bit fitter.

"I still love playing and the training but I do find it a bit of a struggle getting here."

During his career he has been to Wembley twice with Woking and also played in the European Cup Winners Cup with Barry and experienced football with Sunshine George Cross in Australia.

Ellis, who is in his third year at club, had an unfortunate start to his City career when he broke his leg at Christmas in his first year but has bounced back to help Worcester's resurgence under John Barton.

This season has been up and down for him as he has striven to find top form but Ellis's performance's have mirrored City's which have been characterised by inconsistency despite remaining unbeaten at St George's Lane.

"When we play well we can beat anybody but we have struggled against some of the lower teams which is a bad sign," he said.

"You can't talk about how well you are going to do in the league until you put a run together.

"We have not shown any consistency. There have been times when if we'd strung a couple of results together we could have been probably been in the top two.

"But we win two or three then lose a couple and to be honest I think we've drawn too many games.

"Our home form is OK and we're winning games if even we're not playing particularly well."
