Career
Vincent was spotted by Mick Beard then Wimbledon where he played most of his youth football, before he began his career with Crystal Palace.

In the summer of 2006, he was signed to Swindon Town by Dennis Wise who he had previously played for at Millwall. Under the subsequent management of Paul Sturrock, he was given the vice-captaincy. In July 2009, Vincent signed a one-year deal with league one club Walsall. He signed a new contract with Walsall in June 2010, but after discussions with the club he was released from his contract as he wanted to play for a club nearer to his home in Berkshire. In July 2010, Vincent signed a one-year contract with League Two side Aldershot Town.
