An integral figure for the Bluebirds, Club Captain Joe burst onto the scene during the 2011/12 season after graduating from the Club's Academy setup.

Having made a handful of appearances in the League Cup, the Aldershot-born midfielder made his League debut as a substitute against Hull City at KC Stadium, scoring a sublime left-footed half volley from 30 yards out. He went on to make 14 first-team appearances that season as well as securing his first call-up to the England U19 squad.

After gaining experience at Yeovil Town in 2013/14, Joe returned to the Bluebirds to become a key member of the City side. He was voted as the Club's Young Player of the Season in 2015 and 2016 and was given the Club Captaincy ahead of the 2022/23 campaign.
