Later, while studying at the University of Oxford, Goodliffe made a single first-class appearance for Oxford University Cricket Club against Somerset at University Parks in 1904.^[1] During this match, he was dismissed for a duck by Talbot Lewis in Oxford University's first-innings. He took two wickets during the match, those of George Barne in Somerset's first-innings, and Gerard Hodgkinson in their second-innings, with Oxford University winning by an innings and 45 runs.^[2] This was his only first-class appearance for the university. He continued to play for Berkshire during this period, with him playing for the county until 1907. He made a total of ten Minor Counties Championship appearances.^[3]

Having been on the Unattached List for Auxiliary Forces in 1906, during which he was granted the rank of 2nd Lieutenant,^[4] Goodliffe was enlisted in the Royal Fusiliers, still with the rank of 2nd Lieutenant in 1907.^[5] He later obtained the rank of Captain, and October 1916 he was an Acting Major.^[6] The following year he relinquished his rank of Acting Major and reverted to Captain.^[7] By this point he had been awarded the Military Cross. In 1918, he was again given the rank of Major on a temporary basis,^[8] Following the war, he became an instructor of English at French military schools.^[9] In 1926, he was seconded for duty as an officer of a Contingent of Gentlemen Cadets at the Royal Military College Sandhurst.^[10] His appointment to the college was relinquished in September 1930,^[11] retiring from active service in that same month.^[12] Upon retirement he was granted the rank of Major.^[13]

Despite retiring, his experience was later called upon when he served in World War II as a Major with the Royal Artillery.^[14] He retired for a second time in July 1948.^[15] He died on 29 May 1963 at Derry, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland.
