Club career
Straker playing for York City in 2014
Born in Ealing, London, Straker started his career in the youth system at Crystal Palace, and was a trainee with the club. He went on trial with League One club Yeovil Town in March 2007 before being released by Palace.
Straker signed a one-year contract with Conference Premier club Aldershot Town on 6 August 2007, after a successful pre-season trial. After impressing in the first half of the season, Straker signed a contract extension in February 2008, keeping him at Aldershot Town until June 2010. That season, he was a member of the team that won the Conference League Cup and the Conference Premier title. During the January transfer window of 2011, Straker completed a one-month loan deal with Wycombe Wanderers.
On 2 July 2012 Straker moved to Southend United, signing a two-year contract. Aldershot were entitled to a fee for his transfer as he was under the age of 23. This was agreed to be £17,500 plus add ons.
Straker signed for League Two club York City on 12 June 2014 on a two-year contract after rejecting a new deal with Southend. He made his debut in York's 1–1 away draw with Tranmere Rovers in the opening match of the 2014–15 season on 9 August 2014.
Having played infrequently for York under Russ Wilcox, Straker moved on loan to Scottish Premiership club Motherwell until the end of 2014–15 on 29 January 2015. He made his debut in a 1–1 draw at home to St Johnstone two days later. He made 13 appearances before returning to York. Straker left the club by mutual consent on 22 January 2016.
On 12 February 2016, Straker signed for National League club Grimsby Town on a contract until the end of 2015–16, after a successful trial. Straker was released when his contract expired at the end of the season.
On 21 June 2016, Straker returned to Aldershot Town after a four-year absence on a one-year contract.
On 20 May 2017, Straker dropped down a division by signing for National League South club Bath City, despite being offered a new contract by Aldershot.
On 14 May 2019, it was announced that Straker's contract had been mutually terminated, with the defender agreeing terms with newly relegated, Havant & Waterlooville.
