Borough in November 2013. Over the remainder of the season, he regained full fitness and made 21 appearances in the Conference South, playing in a variety of positions – full-back and holding midfielder as well as his more usual centre back – which he felt benefited his all-round game. Deaman signed a one-year contract with former club Cheltenham Town in July 2014 after a trial. He made his senior debut in the 2014–15 League Cup defeat at Championship club Brighton & Hove Albion on 12 August, playing the whole match having replaced rested captain Matt Taylor in the starting eleven. His second appearance, and home debut, was in the Football League Trophy first round win against Oxford United. Deputising for the suspended Troy Brown, Deaman made his Football League debut on 4 October, playing on the right of a back three against what the local newspaper's match report called "two of League Two's most dangerous front players", AFC Wimbledon's Adebayo Akinfenwa and Matt Tubbs. The match ended 1–1, Deaman was man of the match, and manager Mark Yates described his performance as outstanding. He kept his place in the starting eleven after Brown's return from suspension. Prior to the 2015–16 campaign he joined National League North club AFC Telford United on a six-month loan deal. After Cheltenham confirmed in December that his contract would not be renewed, Deaman signed for Basingstoke Town until the end of the season. Deaman moved on to Gloucester City of the National League North for the 2016–17 season, and spent a month on loan at Salford City before returning to his parent club where he became a regular in the side. He chose to leave at the end of the season to join Southern League club Hereford, where his one-year contract was not extended. Hereford's manager said that "for whatever reason it didn't work out for him here last season", and he rejoined Gloucester City, now of the National League South.
