Club career
Blackburn Rovers
Born in Dublin, Ireland, Treacy started playing football with Belvedere for the youth team, before signing his first professional contract in 2005, keeping him until 2008.
On 23 November 2006, Treacy joined Stockport County on a one-month loan deal. He made his Stockport County debut, in a 1–1 draw against Macclesfield Town on 25 November 2006. After ending his loan spell at Stockport County, making four appearances, Treacy signed a new contract with the club on 12 June 2007, keeping him until 2011.
After signing a new contract with the club, Treacy was promoted to the Blackburn Rovers' first team ahead of the 2007–08 season. It was not until on 31 October 2007 when he made his debut for the club in a League Cup tie against Portsmouth as a substitute, as Blackburn Rovers won 2–1. Two months on 5 January 2008, Treacy made his first start against Coventry City in the FA Cup third round in a 4–1 defeat back on 5 January 2008, before being substituted off and replaced by striker Matt Derbyshire. He went on to make two appearances at the end of the 2007–08 season.
At the start of the 2008–09 season, Treacy was called up to the first team under the new management of Paul Ince. He then made his league debut for Blackburn Rovers in the opening game of the season, in a 3–2 win over Everton on 16 August 2008. Treacy found his playing time in the league, mostly coming from the substitute bench. At times, he was given starts in a number of matches for the side. Treacy went on to make twelve appearances throughout the 2008–09 season. Reflecting on his performance, local newspaper Lancashire Telegraph commented about the player, saying: "Next season will be an important season for the young Irishman after a disappointing campaign this time round. A hot prospect as he came through Rovers' youth ranks, has never really transformed that into first team ability. A direct and powerful runner, who has again showed his potential, but will need to deliver in earnest next season."
In July 2009, Treacy joined Sheffield United on a six-month loan deal, making his début for the club in a 0–0 draw with Middlesbrough on the first day of the 2009–2010 season. He soon followed his debut up with two assists for the Blades against Watford the following week and a stunning long range goal three days later in a midweek match against Leicester City. Since joining the club, Treacy started the season as a regular in the Blades side despite facing an injury that almost saw him sidelined for six months. By November, he had dropped out of the team and terminated his loan stay early to return to Blackburn in mid-December
Upon returning to his parent club, Treacy was soon placed on the transfer list in the January transfer window. Treacy later talked about his time at Blackburn Rovers, stating that only Manager Paul Ince have confidence in him and that under the management of Sam Allardyce lead Treacy considered quitting football.

After missing two matches due to injury, he returned to the first team against Watford on 3 April 2010, coming on as a 38th-minute substitute, and set up the equalising goal, in a 1–1 draw. This was followed up by scoring his first goal for the Lancashire outfit in a 3–1 defeat Crystal Palace on 5 April 2010, and another came against over Scunthorpe United five days later, as well as, setting up one of the goals, in a 3–2 win. In the second half of the season at Preston North End, Treacy scored twice in seventeen appearances. A few weeks after the 2009–10 season, he had a successful operation on his hernia.
At the start of the 2010–11 season, Treacy started things well when he scored the winning goal in a 2–1 win over Bradford City. In the local-rivalry against Burnley on 11 September 2010, Treacy scored and provided an assist for Jon Parkin, in a 4–3 loss. He scored his second League Cup goal of the season on 22 September 2010, in a 2–1 loss against Wigan Athletic, eliminating Preston North End from the League Cup. Treacy then scored two goals in two consecutive matches between 28 September 2010 and 2 October 2010 against Leeds United and Reading. However in a match against Derby County on 16 October 2010, he was sent–off for a second bookable offence after giving away a penalty at the last minutes, as the club lost 3–0. After serving a one match suspension, Treacy returned to the starting line–up against Crystal Palace on 23 October 2010, and "fired home from all of 35 yards for his sixth goal of the season", in a 4–3 win. His goal against Crystal Palace later earned him Goal of The Season Award at Preston North End's Award Ceremony. Since joining the club, he continued to regain his first team place throughout the 2010–11 season. Treacy then provided seven assists in nine matches between 15 February 2011 and 19 March 2011. During which, he scored his first goal in five months against Scunthorpe United, in a 3–0 win on 15 March 2011. A month later on 16 April 2011, Treacy scored a brace, in a 3–1 win against his old club, Sheffield United. However, Preston North End were relegated to League One, following a dismal season with only 42 points. Even though Preston North End were relegated to League One, Treacy finished the 2010–11 season with and making forty-one appearances and scoring nine times in all competitions.
Following Preston North End relegation to League One, Treacy announced his intention to leave the club, stating he prefer to play in higher level than League One. Manager Phil Brown later confirmed that four clubs were keen to sign him, though the bid is yet to be made.
Burnley
On 31 July 2011, Burnley confirmed that they had had an offer for Treacy accepted and that he would discuss personal terms with the Clarets. A day later, he signed a three-year deal after completing a medical.
He scored on his debut for the club, coming on as a substitute on the 65th minute against Watford, in a 2–2 draw at Turf Moor. After scoring on his debut, Manager Eddie Howe praised Treacy's performance. His second later came on 17 September 2011, in a 2–1 loss against Peterborough United. Unfortunately, Treacy suffered a hamstring injury in training that kept him out for two weeks. It was not until on 1 October 2011 when he made his return against Millwall, coming on as a substitute for Marvin Bartley in a 1–0 loss. Since joining Burnley, Treacy became a first team regular for Burnley, playing in the midfield position. He then provided a double assist on 29 November 2011, in a 4–0 win over Ipswich Town. However, Treacy's form and fitness began to falter, resulting him not being in the starting line-up, prompting Manager Howe insisted Treacy remained at the club throughout the transfer window. By the time he was loaned out to Sheffield Wednesday, Treacy went on to make twenty–seven appearances and scoring two times for Burnley at the end of the 2011–12 season.
Manager Howe expected Treacy to return to Burnley's pre-season training ahead of the 2012–13 season, having given him a second chance in the first team. However, he missed the first two games due to a groin injury. Treacy made his first appearance since returning from a loan spell at Sheffield Wednesday, coming on as a substitute for Joseph Mills in the 73rd minute, in a 2–0 loss against Huddersfield Town on 25 August 2012. However, his poor performance against Plymouth Argyle in the second round of the League Cup led Manager Howe to send him to the club's Development Squad. After spending months at Burnley's Development Squad, he was recalled to the first team under the new management of Sean Dyche It was not until on 15 December 2012 when Treacy made his first team return, coming on as a substitute for Danny Ings in a 1–1 draw against Watford. He then started his first game in a year for Burnley in the 1–0 defeat against Leicester City on 29 December 2012. This was followed up by scoring the opening goal in a 2–0 win against Sheffield Wednesday on the first day of 2013. After the match, Treacy praised Dyche for giving him a second chance at Burnley. His first team return saw him in and out of the starting line–up for the club. At the end of the 2012–13 season, he went on to make seventeen appearances and scoring once in all competitions.
Treacy started the season well when he scored his first goal of the season and his first appearance of the 2013–14 season, just three minutes after coming on as a substitute, in a 3–0 win over Yeovil Town on 17 August 2013. After the match, Treacy praised Dyche for putting his career on track and credited the fitness coach Mark Howard for helping him lose weight and improving his physique. Treacy then set up a goal for Jason Shackell on 31 August 2013, in a 3–0 win over Derby County. However throughout the 2013–14 season, Treacy's first team was largely restricted to substitute appearances, due to strong competitions in Burnley's midfield positions. He also faced sidelined, including a suspension following his sending off against West Ham United in the fourth round of the EFL Cup on 29 October 2013, as the club lost 2–0. Treacy's second goal later came on 15 February 2014, in a 1–1 draw against AFC Bournemouth. His contributions helped Burnley gain promotion to the Premier League for the first time since 2009. At the end of the 2013–14 season, he went on to make thirty–one appearances and scoring once in all competitions.
