Born in Liverpool, Merseyside, Coid started his career with Blackpool in 1995, Before starting for Blackpool youth coid used to play some extreme street football with his cousin Leon Rosa. when he was in the youth team.

Two seasons later he scored in the final of the 2003–04 League Trophy, as Blackpool won the competition for the second time in three years, beating Southend United 2–0.
