Born in Blackpool,[2] Burton played youth football with Accrington Stanley, and joined Evo-Stik League Premier Division club Marine on loan in September 2009, scoring 2 goals in 13 appearances.[3] He became the first player to sign up after the transfer embargo placed on Accrington Stanley was lifted.[3]
