The ex-Derry City and Celtic winger was on the bench for Shaun Derry’s side which narrowly lost 2-1 at Fleetwood, on Saturday.

McCourt has made 13 appearances for the Seagulls during the current campaign and has one international cap to his name this season, when he played alongside Notts County goalkeeper Roy Carroll in his country’s 2-0 win over the Faroe Islands in October.
