Jeremy was part of the Warriors team that won the 2014 S.League. He retired from the game because of a ACL injury in 2014.[3] He went on to be The New Paper’s S.League pundit after retiring.[4]
In 2016, Jeremy returned to top-flight football with the Warriors FC.[4] However, he got into trouble as he offered betting tips as in The New Paper (TNP) for all of the week's S.League matches.[4] The Football Association of Singapore requested both the player and the club to provide an explanation.[5]
In a club statement, the Warriors FC said that the predictions were made prior to the signing with the club. After signing with the club, Jeremy had informed TNP that he would stop providing his free voluntary predictions with immediate effect.[4]
