Career

Irwin played youth football in his native England with Liverpool. He trialled with Scottish club Aberdeen in January 2011, with a view to a loan deal. [2] He was released by Liverpool in June 2011. [3]

Later that summer he signed for Dutch club Telstar, making his senior professional debut for them during the 2011–12 season. [4]

On 17 November 2011, Telstar coach Jan Poortvliet confirmed Irwin had left the club, citing homesickness as a factor in his departure. [5]

In September 2012 he signed for Finnish Premier League club FF Jaro. [6]

After playing in Denmark in 2015 for AaB, in February 2017 he signed for English non-league side Skelmersdale United. [7] [8]

In August 2017 he signed for FC United of Manchester. [9] During his time at FC United, he made 28 league appearances scoring four goals. [1]

After a spell at Stalybridge Celtic, [10] Irwin joined Northern Premier League side Marine in September 2018. [11] [12]

He retired at the end of the 2019–20 season, [13] but returned to playing in January 2022 after re-signing with Marine. [14] [15] He left Marine for Warrington Rylands in March 2022. [16]

Irwin played as a goalkeeper for Warrington Rylands against their rivals Warrington Town on 4 October 2022 due to the club not having a recognised keeper. [17]

On 28 October 2022 Irwin signed for Widnes. [18]
