Career
Nantwich Town
Mellor started his career at Nantwich Town, before joining Crewe Alexandra in 2008.

Crewe Alexandra
After loan spells at Nantwich Town, Newcastle Town and Stafford Rangers, Mellor made his debut for the Alex on 27 November 2010, in the 2–1 win away at Morecambe at the Globe Arena. He came on as a second-half substitute for Byron Moore.

After several further loan spells away from Crewe at Leek Town and Icelandic team ÍBV, Mellor broke into the first team at Crewe towards the end of the 2011–12 season. He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–0 home win over Bristol Rovers. He then played the full game as Crewe won promotion in the League Two play off final at Wembley with a 2–0 win over Cheltenham Town. He was offered a new contract at the end of the season.

He signed a new two-year contract on 16 July 2012, despite interest from Championship side Derby County, who offered Mellor a three-year contract. Mellor with his father and representatives held talks with Derby after he was initially offered a one-year contract at Crewe, with an angry Derby manager Nigel Clough saying "It must be difficult for him going back to the dressing room after all the things he said to us. And then when everyone was starting back for pre-season he decided to go to Ibiza with his mates for five days."
