Career

McGlashan started out in the youth team at Tooting & Mitcham United before moving Staines Town youth team.

In October 2006, McGlashan signed for the Staines Town first team, before being loaned out to Bracknell Town on dual registration terms. In the summer of 2008, he joined Kingstonian before being loaned out to Raynes Park Vale for the 2008–09 season. In July 2009, McGlashan moved on to Merstham before moving on again, this time joining Ashford Town (Middlesex) in December 2009.[2]

In the summer of 2010, McGlashan trialed for Bristol Rovers, Hayes & Yeading United and Southampton before signing for Aldershot Town on a one-year deal.[3] On 10 August, he made his professional debut, when he came on as a second half substitute against Watford in the League Cup.[4]

On 20 January 2012, it was announced that Cheltenham Town had signed McGlashan on a two-and-a-half year contract, fighting off competition from League Two rivals Gillingham for a reported £60,000.[5] He was the first Cheltenham player to be signed in a January transfer window requiring a fee. On 25 February 2012, McGlashan got his first Cheltenham Town goal in a 2–0 win over Burton Albion at home. McGlashan also won the club's Man of the Match award that day.[6] McGlashan scored his second Cheltenham Town goal in their play-off semi-final first leg 2–0 victory at Whaddon Road against Torquay United, and his third in the second leg four days later as Cheltenham won 2–1, and 4–1 on aggregate.

Further goals have followed in the 2012/13 season against Dagenham and Redbridge, Southend United, Wycombe Wanderers and Rotherham United. McGlashan was part of the Cheltenham team in both legs of the 2012/13 play off defeats to Northampton, he finished the season with 4 goals in a total of 47 appearances.
