Conneely (known as "Seamie" by Galway United fans) joined the club in 2007 from Mervue United. He completed a successful season in United's U21's before being given his senior competitive début against Shamrock Rovers in Terryland Park, replacing the injured Wesley Charles. This was Tony Cousins last game in charge of Galway United.
In January 2011 he signed an 18 month deal with English side Sheffield United.[2]
Conneely was capped for Ireland at several youth levels from U17s and made his Under 21s début against Switzerland in October 2009.[3] He also represented Ireland in an U23 team as part of the 2010 International Challenge Trophy.[4]
