Barnsley
[edit]On 29 July 2014, Berry signed for Barnsley, who were newly relegated into League One on a three-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[3] He made his Football League debut in their 1–0 opening day defeat at home to Crawley Town, in which he was substituted for Nana Boakye-Yiadom in the 78th minute.[4][5] Berry scored his first goal for Barnsley in a Football League Trophy tie against Oldham Athletic on 7 October 2014, which they lost 4–2 in a penalty shoot-out after the match finished as a 2–2 draw.[5] He scored his first league goal with a stoppage time equaliser in a 1–1 draw at home to Peterborough United on 18 April 2015.[6]
