Tim Clancy (born 8 June 1984 in Trim, County Meath) is an Irish professional football player who plays as a defender for Sligo Rovers. Clancy has previously played for Millwall, Walton & Hersham, Weymouth, Fisher Athletic, Kilmarnock, Motherwell, Hibernian, St. Johnstone and Shamrock Rovers.

Career

Clancy played for the Republic of Ireland under-19 team.[1] He played for his home town club Trim Celtic and then Belvedere in Dublin before signing for Millwall. He then had spells in English non-league football with Walton & Hersham, Weymouth and Fisher Athletic.[1]

Clancy joined Scottish Premier League (SPL) club Kilmarnock in early 2007 on amateur forms.[1] He then agreed a one-year professional contract with Kilmarnock in June 2007.[1] Clancy made his debut at left full back away to Gretna in September and made enough appearances during the 2007–08 season to trigger an automatic extension to his contract.[2] His progress at Kilmarnock was hindered by a series of injuries, however, as he missed over four months after suffering an ankle ligament injury in April 2008.[3]

Clancy also missed pre-season training in 2008–09 due to injury. He made a first team comeback in a goalless 0–0 draw at Aberdeen in February 2009. Clancy played regularly for Kilmarnock towards the end of the season and agreed a new two-year contract with the club.[4] He did not play regularly during the 2010–11 season, as manager Mixu Paatelainen used Jamie Hamill as his regular right back.[5] Later in the season, he scored an own goal which gave Rangers a 2–1 victory.[6] Clancy made 73 appearances for Killie in total. Manager Kenny Shiels allowed Clancy to leave the club in order to rebalance his defensive options, with Ryan O'Leary out injured.[7]

Clancy moved to Motherwell in August 2011 and agreed a one-year deal.[7][8] Motherwell signed Clancy to cover for the long-term injury suffered by Steven Saunders.[8] He played regularly in central defence for Mothewell, alongside Shaun Hutchinson. He also played both full back positions during the season. At the end of the season, Clancy rejected a new contract from Motherwell.[9]

Clancy signed a two-year contract with Hibernian in June 2012.[10] Clancy scored the first goal in a 2–2 draw against Celtic on 1 September, when he took advantage of a defensive mix-up.[11] It was the first goal he had scored since playing in English non-league football, over six years previously.[12] Clancy played regularly for Hibs before suffering from a groin injury that required specialist advice.[13] He continued to suffer from injury problems and was released by Hibs in January 2014.[14]

On 28 February 2014, Clancy signed for St. Johnstone on a contract until the end of the 2013–14 season despite interests from a return to the Irish side Derry City.[15][16] Clancy scored his first goal for the club, in a 3–3 draw against Celtic on 7 May 2014, which turns out to be his last appearance for the club.[17] Clancy sustained a serious Achilles injury during training and needed an operation that will ruled him out of the final of Scottish Cup.[18] At the end of the 2013–14 season, Clancy was among four players to be released by St. Johnstone.[19]
