[Town Legend]

How could I forget about Keego, his one and only goal for de Town in his first season just happened to be the winner in the Cup Final!!!! Ah the memories :o

[Iorfa2MaccaJim]

One of the best Blues players I've ever seen is currently playing in

CLASS PLAYER

[Martinho II]

How could I forget about Keego, his one and only goal for de Town in his first season just happened to be the winner in the Cup Final!!!! Ah the memories :o

[Town Legend]

[Mad Moose]

Wes Hoolahan is at Norwich City now.
Kevin Doyle of course with Reading
Stephen Ward is still flying along the wing at Wolves
Did Alan or Stephen Quinn at Sheffield Utd play for St Pats?
Richie Foran went to Southend. He was there this season as I went to see them in the cup at Telford.He didn't play though.
Michael Reddy is probably still fishing for goals about Grimsby. I'm sure he played in the League of Ireland before leaving.
Jonathon Douglas at Leeds Utd ('One time self professed big club now fading away in obscurity much to the enjoyment of football fans worldwide' Source. Anon ) played for Monaghan Utd.
John O Flynn is at Barnet and regularly among the goals.

And one for Finn Harps and the other LoI club a little up the road. Gordon Simms. He's about at Hednesford Town though I heard mention of another, much lesser known club again that he signed for.

Where is David Forde these days. He moved to Cardiff City didn't he.


On Burton Albion Saul Deeney is another of the Irish there but I presume he didn't play for his native Derry City. Certainly not at senior level as far as I know.

[Town Legend]

Ah thats why I said his only goal then!!! Cos I remember going up to the Cup Final on the bus and they had a pool on who'd score the first Town goal. So for the craic and to give him some confidence I said Keegan in the 88th minute!!! Damn Kirby anyways I would of won E200 :D

[sligoman]

Wes Hoolahan is at Norwich City now.Scored a great goal for them yesterday.

[Rocky77]

Danny Spiller (now Millwall) and Richard Rose (now Hereford United) both spent a portion of the 01/02 season with Longford on loan from Gillingham.

No mention of the Flansiro on Spiller's website though :o

http://www.dannyspiller.com/

[Longfordian]

Spiller was a class act in his few games. I remember Martin Lawlor severely annoying Gillingham by ringing them every day trying to get him back.

[gufct]

Damien Delaney is at QPR smashing bloke.

that explains why i havent heard of spillerover the last few years.. anyone remember his only goal against dundalk?

[Black and White]

Gary Dicker(UCD) and Leon McSweeney(Cork) are doing well with Stockport in League 1!Peter Murphy(Irish international) with Carlisle too!Didnt Barry Conlon(Bradford) play in LOI??

[Longfordian]

that explains why i havent heard of spillerover the last few years.. anyone remember his only goal against dundalk?

Yeah Dundalk at home, outside of the right boot effort. Missed a penalty after that which would have made it 2-3 I think. Still, we had the last laugh that year.

[Louth4sam]

Still, we had the last laugh that year.

Tell me about it, took seven years before we could laugh again.

[Black and White]

Colin Hawkins is playing with Brighton.

[Town Legend]

Dave Savage plays for Oxford City. He transferred to them from Brackley Town in October.

[CMcC]

Is Gareth O'Connor (Bohs & Shamrock Rovers) still playing with Bournemouth or Burnley or someone?

[Martinho II]

dont remember longfordian spiller missin the penalty at all..:(

[Longfordian]

You've a few more years brain cells killed than me Martinho!. He definitely missed a penalty at 1-3, he'd been our best player so stepped up and saw the keeper save it.

[Town Legend]

Yeah remembering Spiller missing the penalty, was behind the goals for it and all. In fairness it was a good penalty to the keepers right but the keeper made a great save.

Oxford City are in the same division as Brackley, British Gas Business League Premier Division!!! Think it used to be the Southern Conference or something like that. There currently in 12th spot and Brackley are 3 places ahead in 9th.

[Black and White]

Is Gareth O'Connor (Bohs & Shamrock Rovers) still playing with Bournemouth or Burnley or someone?
Nope Luton released him before xmas and hes in negotiations with us!

[Town Legend]

Spiller is with Millwall now although he's only played 9 games since he joined them in July of 2007. Apparently he was out of the game for 12 months with a hernia and made a comeback and it flared up again.

He was a great player when he was with us, one of the most skilful to of played for us imo.

And do yiz remember Richard Rose who came over with Spiller? He's playing with Hereford United at the moment.

Kevin McHugh has just scored for Linfield at Glenavon in the JJB Premiership

Rounded the goalkeeper and took it well.

[Eoingull]

I popped along to Hillsborough yesterday to watch Sheffield Wednesday play Birmingham...Keith Fahey came on as a sub with 17 minutes to go...I thought he did quite well, and played a big part in the equalising goal.
Another former LOI player, Darren Kelly, plays for my local team, York City. He's struggled to hold down a place, and the fans haven't really taken to him. To the best of my knowledge, Kelly was the first player in years that they actually paid a transfer fee for, and I think expectations were quite high.

[corkboy360]

Pat Dolan is with setanta

[Réiteoir]

That's Oxford United - Oxford City are in the British Gas Business League Premier Division

ex town player paul keegan now at scottish club dumbarton.. i think dave savage is at brackley town..
paul keegan was probably one of the worst players we've ever had... him and dean barrett.

[Rovers1]

I'm pretty sure he's been with them for a good few seasons Marty.

[PartySaint]

Dessie Byrne is currently playing for Hemel Hempstead

[Mad Moose]

I'm pretty sure he's been with them for a good few seasons Marty.

Correct. I've watched him in the Conference League in Burton Albion's romotion winning season and he's still hogging the wings. Liked the look of Keith.
