Biography
Aaron started his career at Ayr United. After being released he was due to join Inverness Caledonian Thistle, until financial difficulties arose causing the deal to fall through. Aaron then turned his sights to foreign fields and with the help of ex-Rangers player and Trinidadian international Russell Latapy a deal was sealed with the island's top team, W Connection.[1]
In 2005 he returned to Northern Ireland to play for Glenavon and Larne, before moving to Crusaders where he was a member of the Irish Cup winning team of 2009, scoring one of the goals in the semi-final against Institute. On 5 May 2010, Aaron signed a two-year deal with Coleraine.[2]
After an injury ravaged year, he signed for local rivals Ballymena United.[3] He played one game for the Braidmen, in which he was sent off in the 49th minute against old club Glenavon.[4] He never played for the club again and was released shortly after.
