Sean McClare

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sean McClare (born 1978) is a professional footballer from Rotherham in South Yorkshire.

McClare began his career with Barnsley, making over fifty first team appearances. After leaving Barnsley he played professionally for Port Vale F.C. and Rochdale. He returned to his native Ireland in 2004 to play for Drogheda, but it did not work out and he came back to England to play.

He signed for Halifax Town but made one appearance for the shaymen and saw out the 2004-2005 season with Bradford Park Avenue.

McClare signed for former Oakwell teammate Neil Redfearn's Scarborough making around 15 appearances, but the seadogs were relegated from the conference at the end of the 2005-2006 season and he was released alongside most of the squad.

McClare returned to the part-time game in autumn 2006, signing for Unibond Premier Division side Grantham Town. After only twenty-five appearances, and despite being one of the gingerbreads most experienced and impressive players, financial constraints resulted in him being released by Town in January 2007.

McClare's current whereabouts or whether he still intends to play football is unclear.
