[animallittle3]

We have today signed Conor McCarthy on a 3 year deal , a defender who has been playing in Scotland .

Decent pedigree and Scottish PL to League One should be more than achievable .

Good age 24 .

Welcome Conor , the last centre back with your surname wasn't bad either .

Centre Back, RB,RWB,LB or LWB so we can work out who’s leaving next?

Looks a very good signing

Barnsley Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Conor McCarthy on a three-year deal from July 1.

The defender most recently spent time in Scotland with St Mirren, making 84 appearances with the Buddies.

Irishman McCarthy began his career with Cork City, featuring 88 times which included appearances in the Europa and Champions League.

Standing at 6'3", McCarthy has also featured for Republic of Ireland at both U18 and U21 level.

The Irishman spoke of his excitement after putting pen to paper: “Now that it’s all signed, sealed and delivered, it’s a great feeling.

“You only have to take one look around at the stadium, the facilities that this club has, and I needed no second invitation to sign for a massive club like this.”

Chief Executive Officer of Barnsley Football Club, Khaled El-Ahmad added: “We are happy to welcome Conor, who is a versatile defender with a strong character and leadership qualities to Oakwell as we add additional quality to our defensive unit."

Welcome to Oakwell, Conor!

Welcome to Oakwell Conor.
BTW is ‘versatile defender’ Khaledese for we don’t know his best position yet. Lol.��

[Olias1]

2 more recruits and were there I think.
A reliable EXPERIENCED midfielder and a striker..

And before the jokers jump in. By striker I don’t mean a railway worker or baggage handler, etc.

Looking likely we are playing with a back three in my opinion this season .

I don't actually expect Andersen to leave but I suspect Helik will with Moon dropping down to the under 23's .

Andersen , Kitching , Cundy and McCarthy battling for three spots with possibly J Williams too if needed .

Sure someone will correct me but I thought Georgi Hristov was still our record signing @ £1.5m.

Correct.

---Add "post administration" or "this century" to gain a perspective on the Luke Thomas transfer fee.
