Michael Andrew Carr (born 6 December 1983 in Crewe, England) is an English former footballer.
Career
Carr has previously played for Macclesfield Town, Northwich Victoria, Morecambe and Kidderminster Harriers . He has been capped seven times for England at semi-professional level, scoring one goal. In his time at Northwich Michael was known for his terrific engine and box to box midfield play which gave him the status as a fans favourite, this then led to interest from football league clubs. He then eventually left Vics to sign for Morecambe in a deal which would see Carr go full-time. After his move Carr found a regular starting place in the side hard to come by and this led to a months loan at former club Northwich, despite returning to Morecambe Carr was released from his contract and snapped up by Kidderminster Harriers. After Harriers decided not to retain his services at the end of the 08–09 season due to financial cutbacks Carr was found looking for a club. On 9 July 2009 Carr signed for Stalybridge Celtic and linked up with former boss Steve Burr.{{cite web| title=Carr reunites with Burr| url=http://www.nonleaguedaily.com/news/index.php?newsmode=FULL&nid=59179| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120918232402/http://www.nonleaguedaily.com/news/index.php?newsmode=FULL&nid=59179| url-status=usurped| archive-date=18 September 2012| publisher = nonleaguedaily.com| date=2009-07-11| accessdate=2009-07-18}} Carr then joined Nantwich Town.http://thenantwichnews.co.uk/2010/11/19/in-form-midfielder-michael-carr-agrees-nantwich-town-deal/{{dead link|date=January 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} In July 2011 it was announced that he had signed for FC United of Manchester of the Northern Premier League Premier Division{{Cite web|url=http://www.fc-utd.co.uk/story.php?story_id=3639|title = New faces for the new season}} where he stayed until he left the club at the beginning of December.
