We’re delighted to announce we’ve agreed terms with forward Alan Trouten to join the club on a 1-year deal.

36-year-old Alan made his senior debut for Queen’s Park in September 2005 and was part of Billy Stark’s 2006/07 side that won promotion to Division 2, via the play-offs in 2006/07 with Alan scored the 2nd for Spiders in a 3-0 victory at Bayview in the final. Next up was a move to Clyde in the summer of 2008 before joining Airdrie United the following season then Ayr United for the start of the 2010/11 season. Then followed two spells at Brechin City, with a return to Ayr United in 2015/16 sandwiched in between.

Alan signed for League One side Albion Rovers for the start of the 2017/18 season and almost single-handedly kept the Wee Rovers in the division scoring 28 goals in 39 appearances before moving on to Alloa Athletic in the summer of 2018 where he’s spent the past four seasons taking his career tally to over 500 senior appearance and over 175 goals.

Manager Stevie Crawford commented: “We are delighted to add someone with Alan’s undoubted quality and experience. He is a player I’ve always liked and another strong addition to our squad. I was impressed during the chat I had with Alan and I’m sure the other players in the squad will look to him for guidance both on and off the and I know he’s willing to pass on his knowledge and experience to help others improve."

Welcome to Bayview Alan!
