Kilmarnock land deal for defender Mark Connolly
The 22-year-old Irishman has signed a three-year contract after leaving Sky Bet League One side Crawley Town.
Connolly cost Bolton a seven-figure sum when they took him from Wolves as a 17-year-old but he failed to make the first-team breakthrough and his senior debut came during a loan spell with St Johnstone in 2010, for whom he only played 45 minutes.
