and Northampton Town. He then went to Northern Ireland to play for Ards F.C.
before finding first team football at non-league club Yeovil Town
.
In the summer of 2001 Patmore moved to Rushden & Diamonds (who had beaten Yeovil Town
in the football league the previous season) supposedly for family reasons. Despite scoring on his league debut for Rushden, Patmore did not prove a popular figure with Rushden fans, earning the unwanted nickname of 'Warren Fatmore'. Patmore's time at R&D soon came to an end as he moved back into the conference with Woking.
Patmore has also played for the England non-league side (now known as the game-board 11) on a number of occasions before ending his career at Margate in 2003.
