Experienced defender, just what we need. Captain at Macclesfield and turned down a deal there in order to join us. Always good to see he wasn't't released as it shows Macs, a team high in the table, wanted to keep him. Macc fans seem gutted.
Very happy with that signing.

I'm really pleased with this. A good defender from a good club and it says something if he has turned down a new contract at Macc. Welcome to Chester Andy!! π΅βͺοΈπ΅βͺοΈ COYB.

Fair play to McCarthy this is the type of player we need and strengthened our weakest position last season. Experienced at this level but isn't 30+ year old clapped out player.
Seems to have been a bit of a exodus at Macc, no smoke without fire and all that.

That's a good signing that one. 3-4 more like that and we might start to sense some optimism.

Andy is a very good player, just the type we need. Hope we have more players of this quality lined up to come in over the next few weeks. Macs fans not happy well done Macca great signing

more signings expected in the next 24/48 hours as tarvin said a few more decent signings will boost season ticket sales

Excellent signing. Still only 25 and from Urmston, so no travelling problems. Lets hope he doesn't suffer the injury jinx.

if George has not resigned by next friday then Jon should tell him not to resign Higgins messed us about for weeks jon should of set a timescale for current players to resign so he can look elsewhere if they don't i know some are on holiday but they can do it via agents

Chill out pal, I said we need another 3 or 4 like that! Then we need to trust that JM can actually organise and motivate them. It's hardly time to start dancing on the Harry Mac just yet.

Well done Macca

Why only a 1 year contract tho? Sensible move for both parties imo. Sometimes things just don't work out. Hopefully they do and he's here a few seasons

Interesting reading the range of views on the Mac forum. To some losing Halls to Chester is the beginning of the end and relegation beckons. For others he's average at best and no loss. Nice to know we're not the only set of fans with widely differing opinions about their club π³

So do we draw the conclusion that we are offering better money than Mac, or just that he fancied a change? Would be strange if he'd come to us on less money.

He's a personal trainer and might want to focus on that more; us being part-time (or partially full-time) will help him, and I'd guess for similar money.
