Longford Town have confirmed the
signing of 26-year-old out-of-contract
midfielder Dessie Baker from Shelbourne
Baker, whose younger brother Richie was
also released and is currently looking
for a club in the United States, has
been given a two-year-deal by the 2003
FAI Cup winners, having spent seven
seasons at Tolka Park.
Town boss Alan Matthews said of his

seasons and know his potential.

something to prove to people after his
last two seasons which have seen him
play very little football.'
