I can understand him wanting to start his actuarial career and step back from full time training. He had a really difficult season with Dundalk due to two bad injuries. Spending so much time on the sidelines must have left him bored. However, I still think he could have given full time football a couple more seasons.
Pats have a really good player, in great physical condition, and with a terrific attitude.
Dundalk fans will always be grateful for his performances and commitment.
