He made his debut in a 1–1 draw with promotion rivals Leyton Orient, a match that Albion needed to win, and by the end of the following season had made 28 appearances in the Third Division South and scored six goals. He stayed with the club for a further two years, but Denis Foreman and Frankie Howard kept him out of the first team.[4] He settled in Lancing, West Sussex,[2] and spent three years as player-manager of County League club Bognor Regis Town, and also managed Southwick, Worthing and Steyning Town, before retiring from the game.[6] Neate died in West Sussex in 2014 at the age of 87.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Hugman|14439|accessdate=30 November 2018}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Neate, Derek}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://www.hyufc.com/features/a_z/hfc/n.html |title=A–Z of Hayes FC: N |publisher=Hayes & Yeading United F.C. |accessdate=30 November 2018}} 3. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/southtoday/content/articles/2008/10/11/telltom_ifonly_feature.shtml |title=Tell Tom: Derek's Olympics |publisher=BBC South Today |date=11 October 2008 |accessdate=30 November 2018}} 4. ^{{cite news |title=Hayes recall Neate to Cup team |newspaper=Middlesex Advertiser and County Gazette |date=18 December 1953 |page=10 |quote=Derek Neate, who lost his place to Robin Long early in October.
