Whitby Town Add Irish Midfielder

Wednesday, 6 August 2025 13:14

Whitby Town have announced that promising youngster Ronnie McGrath has joined the club from Tadcaster Albion.

McGrath, 20, will link up with Gary Liddle's squad for the 2025/26 Pitching In Northern Premier League season after impressing on trial in pre-season.

McGrath has risen through the youth ranks at Leeds United and, after relocating to the USA in 2024, returned to the UK earlier this year to play for the Tadcaster before now joining the Seasiders.

The attack-minded midfielder featured in Town's run-outs against Thornaby, Redcar Athletic and Blyth Spartans, scoring in the 3-3 draw with Redcar.

Whitby Town manager Liddle said:

"I'm really pleased to have been able to bring Ronnie to Whitby Town.

"I think over the few games he's been with us he's shown to not only myself, but to his team mates and fans, just how much of an asset he can be to us.

"His drive, technical qualities, versatility and energy has proven infectious and his attitude to all of training, games, and just wanting to be here means it was an easy deal to get done."
