Austin McCann has signed a pre-contract with Dunfermline (1st July 08 - 31st May 2010), he is currently with Notts County. Austin is a left back who likes to get forward and provide crosses into the opposition's penalty area. The 28 year old has played at Airdrie, Clyde (loan) and at Boston United but he is probably better known as a Hearts player. The Jambos paid Airdrie £50,000 for Austin in February 2001 but he moved on to Boston United in June 2004 for an undisclosed fee.

The Clydebank born player joined the Magpies in the summer of 2006 on a free transfer after failing to agree new terms with Boston United, and his performances during his two years at York Street showed enough for County Manager, Steve Thompson to move swiftly to take him to Meadow Lane. He is currently in his second season at Notts County has started 14 games this season and been used as sub in eight.
