Alan joined the club at the start of the 2008/09 season and made his debut from the bench for the reserves against Focus on the opening day of the season. Three days later he made his first start against Marshalls and scored his first goal for the club.

After this though Alan scored just once in the next ten matches, and he left midway through the season to play for West Cheshire League Two side Helsby. There he notched 7 goals in 12 games as he helped them to the treble of League, West Cheshire Bowl and Runcorn FA Cup.

He returned to Runcorn Town at the start of the 2009/10 season and we have hopes that he will be amongst the goals again this season.
