Brian Connor (born 23 April 1969) is a footballer who most recently played for Slough Town in the English Southern Football League Division One South & West. He played international football for Anguilla.
Club career
[edit]Connor joined Maidenhead United from local rivals Marlow in November 1996. He became a regular, dependable and popular member of Alan Devonshire's team, playing mainly as a sweeper, and such was his level of consistency that he played in all 61 competitive matches in the 1998/99 season.[1]
An Isthmian League Division One promotion winner in 1999–2000, Connor also won a Full Members Cup winners medal and four County Cups during his spell at York Road, scoring a memorable match-winner in the Berks & Bucks Senior Cup final against Reading in 1998. Connor started 368 matches for the Magpies – sixth all-time – and, after leaving at the end of the 2004/05 season, was given the honour of a testimonial that saw Alan Devonshire return to manage a Maidenhead United XI versus a Wycombe Wanderers XI. Connor would join his former Magpies boss, Devonshire, at Hampton & Richmond Borough in 2005. He re-signed for Slough Town, his hometown club, in 2007. He was inducted into the Maidenhead United Hall of Fame, alongside Devonshire, in January 2010.
International career
[edit]Connor debuted for Anguilla, aged 38, in a February 2008 World Cup qualification match against El Salvador. He also played in the return match, his only two caps by December 2008.[2]
