Garreth O Connor (Bournemouth) is having a great season with them.

Shaun Maher (Bournemouth) has only got back into the side over the last few months

I think Roy Keane might get a game ;)
Jonathan Douglas - Blackburn, went on loan with Gillingham for a few months and looks like he has helped keep them up
Chris Adamson is now with Sheffield Wednesday; made at least one start. A 'keeper I always rated, but his kicking is terrible and the Cup Final a couple of years ago seemed to ruin his confidence completely.

Anyone ever know what happened to Ray Kelly? He went from Athlone to Man. City. Was with Bohs too. Also with some Norwegian outfit. Did he play for Shamrock Rovers as well? :confused:

Steve Staunton played in the President's Cup for Dundalk, but AFAIK never played a senior LoI game for them (I am open to correction on this)
BTW, is Curtis Fleming still playing?

Staunton could not get into the team ahead of Martin Lawlor, one of the best left-backs in EL/LOI history!

He (Stan) was probably only 16 at the time though, before he went to Liverpool

Richie Foran went to Carlisle when Collins was there but wasn't very prolific. He's with Motherwell now in Scottish pL, started off well there but haven't heard much of him in awhile (probably injured? or suspended). His temper always got the better of him.

Not true at all, at the start of his career with Carlisle he was very prolific espically when you consider the team he was playing for, then his ill discipline got to him and his Carlisle career went on a downward spiral.

One way of calling a guy a scumbag :D His 'ill discipline' has also got the better of him in Scotland but he's still hanging in there.

I'm also excluding loan players as widens the net too much.

This thread si like the eL rule book...i make it up as i go along ;)

Brian Carey and Kevin Nugent (ex Cork City) are two old pros still making a living in the lower divsions. Fair play to them.

Didn't Gary Kelly and Ian Harte both have appearances for Home Farm.

Patrick Dunne
09/05/2005, 9:34 PM
.. am fairly sure neither played at senior level.

Are Eddie Annand / Ian Gilzean still playing in Divsions 2/3 in Scotland ?

99% certain Gary Kelly played LoI football for Home Farm. This question was posed on the DC site recently, and someone insisted that Stephen McPhail had also made league appearances for Home Farm.
