Keely wasn't at Dublin City 3 years ago, he was at shels and Kildare during that year.

But there is a large crossover between his (and Gill's side at kildare two years ago) and Gillers side of last season at City.

Basically!

Kennedy, Browne, Whelehan, Keely, Scully, McGill, Collins, Mulcahy all played for DC in the last 2 years and have been signed by Keely. Also most of them came via Kildare, some (Kennedy&Scully) have gone from Kildare to Dublin to Kildare to Dublin in under 7 months

At least there is some consistency there and nearly all of the lads will know each other well from the start of pre-season. Also the quality of players like McGill, Collins, Whelehan with Trev Vaughan and others coming in means that the squad should be challenging.

You got any more quality players (e.g. Conor Kenna) you're not using?

Free agent list growing

The PFAI's daily updated list of free-agents has had a couple of interesting additions this week.
Phillip Hughes who started last season at Dublin City before being released by Roddy Collins prompted a move to UCD is available on a free. He scored nine goals last season.
Another striker apparently up for grabs is Frenchman Damien Dupuy. He burst on the scene with Galway United last season and netted thirteen times for the Tribesmen.

Aye, he was with us. From talking to him towards the end of the season I got the impression he was packing it in, surprised to see him sign for another club.

Looks like Athlone are the new DC Rejects XI...
