City missed out on promotion and as a result had to cut their wage budget.
Oldham Athletic
Colbeck left Bradford in September 2009, on the final day of the summer transfer window to join Penney at League One side Oldham Athletic. The transfer fee was undisclosed, with Bradford entitled to a sum because of Colbeck's age
Hereford United
Colbeck almost immediately left Oldham and dropped back into League Two to sign for Hereford United on a two-year contract.[61] His new manager Simon Davey described Colbeck as "just the ideal attacking winger we've been looking for throughout pre-season and I think he is the final piece in the jigsaw".[62] Two days later, Colbeck scored two goals in a pre-season friendly victory against Neath[63] before being named as one of six Hereford debutants on the opening day of the 2010–11 League Two season as his new side won 1–0 at Crewe Alexandra.[64][65] Colbeck scored his first goal with Hereford on 2 November 2010 in a 2–2 draw with Aldershot Town.[66] Hereford, however, recorded just one win from their first ten league games, and were bottom of the league by October when Davey was sacked.[67] Davey was replaced by Jamie Pitman,[68] who helped to improve Hereford's form. Colbeck received the first red card of his Hereford career for a professional foul during a 4–0 defeat to Southend United on 18 March 2011.[69] His ensuing suspension was one of only two games he missed all season helping him to 50 games in a single season for the first time in his career.[70]
However, early in the following season, he missed three months because of a knee injury.[71] He returned from injury on 17 December 2011.
Grimsby Town

Colbeck was released by Grimsby on 9 May 2014.[76]
Non League

Playing style
Colbeck is a pacy midfielder who normally plays on the right wing.[79][80] Talking about his game, Colbeck says: "I love taking players on, I think that's my best attribute."[81] At Bradford, his manager Stuart McCall praised his hard work and commitment, but said he became frustrated about his lack of end product. McCall also said Colbeck's crossing needed to be improved.[82] Another of his managers Dave Penney described Colbeck as being in "the Stanley Matthews mould", in reference to the former Blackpool winger.[51] However, Colbeck's performances at Oldham also earned mixed reviews akin to McCall's comments, with fans and journalists describing him as a "tireless worker" but his crossing had a "lack of quality".[54][55] Going into the 2007–08 season, Colbeck had yet to score a goal. Before the season, he admitted he needed to score more goals[79] and went on to score six goals during the campaign, although it remains a career high.[48]
