The 25-year-old penned a new three-and -half-year deal that will keep him with the Lilywhites until 2012 and Mellor is predicting success for the club under Irvine's reign.

"The major issue in signing the deal is the manager," Mellor told the club's official website.

"Alan has got the squad together and although we've had a tough time of late we're going to come out of it and there are plenty of good times to come that's for sure."

"Things are on the up here, and I'm just looking forward to being a part of the success at Preston North End."
