In 1888, Connor signed for Warwick County, an association football off-shoot of Warwickshire CCC. However, due to its proximity to the City of Birmingham the club could not compete with clubs like Aston Villa, for whom Connor signed in 1889.
Football League career
Connor played one game in his first season at Wellington Road, the then home of Aston Villa, on 25 January 1890. Connor played left-half against Bolton Wanderers, a match which Villa lost 2–1. The Lancashire Evening Post described the match in its 25 January 1890 edition but did not mention Connor by name.<ref name="The British Newspaper Archive">"The British Newspaper Archive".
