Career
He played over 400 league games, the majority of which came with Portsmouth and Exeter City. The following year he was forced to play in goal after Portsmouth keeper Graham Lloyd was injured late during the game against Preston North End. Viney was named player of the year by Pompey fans in the 1980-1981 season.
He left to join Exeter City in August 1982 where he would go on to make nearly 300 first team appearances.
That was his only appearance for the Gulls. Viney lost his place in the Exeter side again in the 1988-1989 season, joining Bristol Rovers on loan in September 1988.
On leaving Exeter he joined non-league Torrington. In October 2004, Viney was named as manager of Torrington, a position he held until being made Director of Football at the club in October 2005.
