After rising through the ranks made his league debut, aged 19, against Crewe Alexandra in August 2004,[2] the first of three first team appearances for the club, achieving promotion to the Premier League.[3] He then went on to signing a 2-year extension, before leaving for more playing opportunities.[4][5] After his loan spell away from West Ham United, McClenahan left along with six players.[6]
