Alan Ogley (born February 4, 1946 in Darton ) is a former English football goalkeeper . He was between 1967 and 1975 regular goalkeeper of the lower-class professional club Stockport County and then until 1977 at Darlington FC . He had previously been part of the Manchester City squad , but rarely got beyond the role of substitute. At the beginning of the 1967/68 season, which ended for the "Citizens" by winning the English championship , he had stood between the posts twice in league games.
Athletic career
Ogley began his footballer career at the third division club Barnsley FC . There he played nine championship matches in the 1962/63 season before moving to Manchester City , which was then active in the second-highest English division. During his time in Manchester, the club succeeded in the first division promotion in 1966 , but Ogley was mostly only second choice behind Harry Dowd and only four times in the 1965/66 season in league games came to the train. In the first division season 1966/67 he then completed 17 games and at the beginning of the subsequent championship season 1967/68 for the injured Dowd also the first two encounters, but his appearance at 2: 3 away against Southampton FC was also the last. Shortly thereafter, he left Manchester for the third division club Stockport County as part of a swap deal with Ken Mulhearn , who in turn advanced to "number 1" in the championship race of the "Citziens".
Ogley spent eight years in Stockport, where he only played fourth class after relegation in 1970 . Finally, he was two years to 1977 with league rivals FC Darlington before he left professional football in the direction of the amateur club Wooley Miners Welfare .
