Career

Hogan started his career at Greater Manchester club Woodley Sports (now known as Stockport Sports) in 2007, remaining in the club's youth setup for 3 years.

On 1 July 2010, Hogan left Woodley and signed with FC Halifax Town. In his time at the Shaymen he played 109 league games, scoring three times. His first goal came against Nantwich Town with his second coming a week and a half later at Retford United, a game that saw the Shaymen crowned champions of the Northern Premier League Premier Division. His third goal came against Eastwood Town on 18 February 2012.[4] He played almost every game at Halifax in a central defensive role.

On 22 May 2013, Hogan announced he was joining Lancashire club Fleetwood Town on a free transfer after his contract with Halifax ran out.[5] He made his professional debut on 3 August, in a 3–1 home win against Dagenham & Redbridge.[6]

On 3 November 2014, Hogan was loaned to Conference Premier side Macclesfield Town until 9 December.[7] On 11 December, his loan was extended until 10 January.[8]

On 17 May 2016, Hogan signed for National League club Gateshead on a Free Transfer from Tranmere Rovers. On 30 July 2016, Hogan scored his first goal for the club in a 3-2 preseason victory at home to Boston United which won Gateshead the game. Hogan became club Captain ahead of the 2016/17 season, making his competitive debut on the 6th August 2016, as Gateshead beat Chester 3-0 in the first game of the season.
