Biography

edit

Born in Islington, Mauge started his career as a trainee at Charlton Athletic, before moving on to Fulham on a free transfer.[3] Two years later he was bought by Bury for £40,000.[3] In 1991, he spent a brief spell as a loan player at Manchester City, where he made ten appearances. In 1995 Plymouth bought him for £40,000, with Mauge becoming the first Argyle player to score at Wembley as Plymouth defeated Darlington 1–0 in the Third Division play-off final in 1996.

He signed for Bristol Rovers on a free transfer in 1999. In 2000, he was called up to the Trinidad and Tobago squad, which he qualified for through his parents. He played in the Gold Cup, but broke his leg in a first round match against Mexico. Mauge retired from professional football in 2002.

He was later player/manager of non-League side Whitton United,[4] and worked as a Football Development Officer for Ipswich Borough Council.[5]
