He played for Walsall and only made one first team appearance for Walsall at Brentford on 4 February 2006. The then manager of Walsall, Paul Merson, named Tilt on the substitutes bench for the first time in his career and after an injury to first choice keeper Andy Oakes, Merson was forced to put in Tilt for the second half where Brentford were winning 2–0 and lost the match 5–0, after Tilt conceded three goals from Paul Brooker, Sam Sodje and a Kevin O'Connor penalty.[1] Merson was sacked soon after this game[2] and Tilt was released in May 2006. He subsequently played for Northern Premier League team Willenhall Town.
