Career

McAlpine joined Burslem Port Vale in December 1890, making his debut at the Athletic Ground in a 3–0 friendly defeat to rivals Stoke on 20 December 1890.[1] He was a first-team regular and helped the club share the North Staffordshire Charity Challenge Cup in 1891 and win the Staffordshire Charity Cup in 1892.[1] He managed to sign for Darlington and Vale in the summer of 1892 and was obliged to play for the former as he had given them his signature first; he also picked up a six-week suspension for his error.[1] He returned to Vale in October 1892. He was once more a first-team regular, playing ten Second Division games in 1892–93, before leaving for good in February 1893.[1]
