At the start of the 1964-65 season, Arsenal manager Billy Wright switched Court to the right wing, and he became a regular there for that season, playing 35 times, before being switched to right back in 1965-66, where again he was a regular for the season, playing 38 times. Wright was dismissed as Arsenal manager and many players left the club as a result, but Court continued to stay at the club for the next three seasons as a utility player. Court played every position bar goalkeeper under Wright's successor Bertie Mee, although he played fewer matches - a total of only 31 over Mee's first two seasons. However, 1968-69 saw him return as a first-team regular – he played 51 matches that season, including the Gunners' League Cup Final loss to Swindon Town at Wembley Stadium. He continued to be a regular in 1969-70, until he suffered injury midway through, and as a result he missed both legs of the Gunners' Inter-Cities Fairs Cup final triumph that season.
