Biography

Born in Colchester in Essex in 1963,[1] McClean turned professional in 1987 after signing for Bristol Rovers from Essex non-League club Clacton Town. During his time at Rovers he played 51 league matches, scoring six goals.[2] He also played at Wembley Stadium when Rovers reached the final of the Football League Trophy,[3] losing 2–1 to Tranmere Rovers.

In 1991, he was transferred to Swansea City, but after making only four league appearances for the club, he moved to Northampton Town. In 1992, he returned to non-League football with Essex club Chelmsford City. He later played for Sudbury Town, scoring the goal that put them ahead against Brentford in the club's first appearance in the second round of the FA Cup.[4]

A popular player with Bristol Rovers supporters, he continues to regularly attend Rovers games.[3] In May 2016 he was knocked unconscious in a hit-and-run attack in Marks Tey in Essex.[5]
