Club career
Rotherham United
Born in Rotherham, South Yorkshire,[1] Brogan broke into the Rotherham squad towards the end of the 2006–07 season, soon becoming an automatic choice making 18 starts. On 30 April 2007, Brogan signed a 2-year contract with the Millers. Brogan's consistent impressive displays the following season brought him much praise and frequent Man of the Match awards. As a result, it is reported that several Premier League clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, showed an interest in signing the player, sending scouts to watch his performances.[2]
Brogan was the forerunner to become player of the season 2007–08 until his horrific injury on 9 February, where he suffered a double fracture of his leg in a collision with MK Dons goalkeeper Willy Gueret.[3] Brogan's absence, along with the clubs financial problems, coincided with a huge dip in form for the Millers, who dropped out of the race for promotion. After fourteen months on the sidelines, Brogan came on as a substitute in the final game of the 2008–09 season vs Exeter City.[2]
Stalybridge Celtic loan
On 10 January 2011, Brogan joined Stalybridge on loan for a month.[4] He made his debut against Alfreton Town, in which he scored his first goal for the club in a 5–3 defeat.[5] He went on to play another eleven games, scoring in both of their local derby matches against Hyde and Droylsden.[6][7]
