Before Wilkinson joined Accrington he played for three clubs. In 1883 he signed for Blackpool F.C.. Today's Blackpool is not the Blackpool Wilkinson joined. Today's Blackpool was founded in 1887 but one source indicates Blackburn Rovers played a Blackpool club in 1880.

In the 1884–85 season Wilkinson played for a club called Accrington Grasshoppers F.C. There is no information about this club.

In the final three years before Wilkinson joined Accrington he signed and played for a club called Peel Bank F.C. (there is no data on this club).
