John Alan White (born 25 July, 1986, Colchester) is a professional footballer who currently plays for Colchester United.

Football career

John has come through the youth ranks with Colchester making his first team debut on the 24 August 2004 in the Football League Cup against Cheltenham Town. A versatile player, he has played in many positions for the team but is currently settled at left back.

He won the Young Player of the Year award for the 2005/2006 season, the year that the U's were promoted to the Championship. He made 32 appearance for the U's in the league that season, a season's total he is yet to ecclipse.

Despite being out of the team for much of the 2006/07 season, largely due to the good form of Greg Halford, he was given a vote of confidence by the club when they offered him a new contract in June 2007.

The loan spell was a success and on his return he has regularly been selected for the U's.
