Although always listed with the English 'Alan' on team sheets Ross's birth certificate lists him as the Scottish 'Allan.' Ross holds the all-time appearance record for United, 466 games, and - despite his death - remains an often discussed and highly respected figure. Amongst his many achievements Ross was once called on during an injury crisis to play outfield as a substitute. Ross was part of the 'legends' team at Carlisle who were promoted to the First Division in 1974 and topped the division at the end of the first week. Their first place was secured on goal difference, an achievement aided by the fact Ross opened the season with three clean sheets. Ross could have been transferred to Celtic F.C. in the late sixties but Carlisle United blocked the move. Around the same time he trained with the Scotland squad but was never given a full-international cap. After his retirement Ross remained in Carlisle, working in housing for the city council. Details of Ross's career can be found in 'Legends of Carlisle United' by Mick Mitchell which features a lenghty interview, Paul Harrison's 'Lads in Blue' includes a statistical summary of Ross's career and a round up of every season during which he played. Neil Nixon's memoir; 'Singin' The Blues' is dedicated to Alan Ross.
