Dermot O'Neill was goalkeeper coach with Dundalk until a cull of backroom staff in May. Think that may have been his second or third spell as a coach with the club.
Mick Neville is involved with our youth teams

On another note, a lot of big name players have disappeared in the past few years.
Where's the likes of Steve Finnan, Gary Kelly, Matt Holland?

And a list of some coaches/managers;
Dave Connell
Mick Neville
Sean Francis
Harry McCue
Paul Osam
Alan Reyonolds
Trevor Scanlon
Thomas Donnolly
Dave Connell is Irish womens U.21 manager (maybe it's 19s)
Mick Neville if he is the same one I'm thinking of is a development officer for the FAI in Louth
Believe Sean Francis is involved with underage coaching at Newbridge Town
Harry McCue is involved with the FAI Fás course I think
Paul Osam is an FAI DO in Westmeath
Alan Reynolds is an FAI DO in Wicklow
Trevor Scanlon, FAI DO in Donegal
Thomas Donnolly was the Kildare District League team manager last year, not sure if he still is but definitely involved at coaching in some capacity within Kildare.

Did you know that the only LOI clubs he played for were Cork, Bohs and Rovers?

He played for Waterford United for a season in 2003.
On another note, a lot of big name players have disappeared in the past few years.

The last i seen of Steve Finnan was at Jamie Carraghers testimonial match in 2010. I think he was involved in some sort of property company with his brothers but open to correction. Would be interested to hear what he is up to.

Conor Sinnott is playing GAA for Wexford junior football champions St Fintans, they were beaten in the Leinster junior final a few weeks ago. If he's not on the county senior panel in the new year I wouldn't be surprised to see him back in the League of Ireland.

Just to pick a few of the ex-UCD players and give their last LoI clubs anyway; not what's being asked, but it's a start!
Lloyd Colfer - went to Wexford in 2007 I think
Sean L'Estrange - Jaysus! I think he played once for us before going to Kilkenny in the Scully season
Robbie Creevy - still at UCD (after a spell in Australia)
Shane Fitzgerald - was with Monaghan this year
Neil Gallagher - had been with Dundalk; was he released or is he still there?
Gallagher played one season with us in the First Division before packing in football. Plays in goal for his local GAA club Cooley Kickhams and the Louth county team.

I don't know, but the pace at which things started to degenerate was Supersonic. Although I haven't anything better to do than make puns, seeing as I'm not working, or Married with Children.

There's a Serie A referee called Carmine Russo. There was also a NY mob member of the same name.
If only the actress one were true he/she could actually be the first footballet nominated for an Oscar for a dive!

Sorry if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but what on Earth happened to Andrei Georgescu? Stumbled across his Wiki page and it's not very informative post-2011! Still says he plays for Drogs. He was the 'next big thing' while at Bray at one stage.

Drogheda never signed him. He was there in pre-season.

Cheers for that. He seems to have either given up the game or gone somewhere so obscure no one even noticed!
