Tilney joined Milton Keynes Dons' academy in 2004, progressing through several age groups and featuring several times for the club's development squad. In an April 2013 interview, he revealed that Lionel Messi was his football idol, that La Liga was his favourite league and that his favourite position was in central attacking midfield.[3] In October 2014, he signed professional terms with the club until June 2016.[4] On 11 September 2015, he joined Southern Premier side Histon, initially on a one-month deal which was later extended.[5] On 13 October, he scored his first goal as a professional in a 4–1 win over AFC Rushden & Diamonds.[6] On 26 March 2016, Tilney joined National League North side Brackley Town on a one-month loan, and made three appearances for the club.[7][8]

He made his first team debut for the Dons on 9 August 2016, and marked his debut with a 25-yard goal in a 3–1 win over Newport County in an EFL Cup match at Rodney Parade.[9] On 14 February 2017, Tilney made his league debut, starting in a 0–0 draw away to Bury.[10] On 14 June 2017, Tilney's contract was extended until summer 2018.[11] On 8 August 2017, Tilney re-joined National League North club Brackley Town on a season-long loan, but was recalled early in January 2018.[12]
