About Nathan Murphy
Nathan is a left-back who was called into the first-team setup by Sean Connor during the 2009 season after impressing for the club’s Youths team. Nathan initially joined Dundalk from local club Saint Dominic’s.

The young defender made his senior debut, aged just 16, with an injury-time appearance in a 3-0 defeat at Derry City on 4 September 2009, and he went on to make another seven outings between then and the end of the season.

In 2010 Nathan made 8 league appearances for Dundalk and was resigned for 2011, adding 32 league appearances in 2011 as he became a regular in Ian Foster's side. In 2012 had just 13 league outings in a turbulent season. Nathan left Oriel Park at the end of the season and in January 2013 he played with Roddy Collins' Athlone Town.

He has also appeared for the FAI Schools U18 side, putting in an eye-catching display in a 3-1 friendly win over Australia.
About Graham Kelly
Graham played under-age football with Lourdes Celtic before traveling to England where he joined Derby County, spending two years at the club's youth Academy. He signed his first professional contract in July 2010, before immediately going out on loan to Bray Wanderers.

He made his debut for Bray in the 3-0 defeat against Bohemians on 21 July and made 4 league appearances during his four month loan spell. He returned to Derby County at the end of the 2010 season but re-signed at the Carlisle Grounds for the start of 2011, this time on a permanent deal. He made 14 league appearances in 2011 and scored once, in the 6-0 win over Galway United on 21st October. 2012 was a disappointing year fro Graham and he made just 6 league appearances for Pat Devlin's side, leaving the Seagulls at the end of the season.

In January 2013 Graham joined up with Roddy Collins at Athlone Town.
About Cillian Corcoran
Cillian played for Monaghan United in 2012 and first made the bench as an unused substitute in the club's EA Sports Cup defeat away to Sligo Rovers on 9 April. A few months later Cillian was one of many players left without a club when Monaghan withdrew from the league on 18 June.

In January 2013 Cillian hooked up with Roddy Collins again, joining First Division Athlone Town.

About Robbie Clarke

Robbie is a left back who played under-age football at Cherry Orchard before beginning his League career at St Patrick's Athletic in 2002. In 2003 he went on loan to Dublin City where he helped the Vikings to the First Division title.

In 2004 Robbie signed for Dundalk, staying for just one season at Oriel Park before decamping to Kildare County in 2005. At the end of the '05 season he was part of a mini exodus with several players making their way from Kildare to Shamrock Rovers.

Robbie won his second First Division title with the Hoops in 2006, forming part of a back four that conceded just 13 league goals all season. In his two years at Rovers Robbie made 69 appearances, scoring once.

In 2008 Robbie joined Waterford United and made 35 league appearances for the Blues as they finished fourth in the First Division. 2009 saw Robbie return to Co Louth, this time signing for Drogheda United. It was a difficult season for Drogheda who finished second bottom of the Premier Division. Despite making 32 league appearances, he was released at the end of the season.

In 2010 Robbie signed for Dermot Keely at Shelbourne where he played with the club's A Championship side, leaving the club on 17 August without having made an first team appearance.

After several months out of league football, Robbie signed for a second spell at Drogheda United in June 2011. He made 6 league appearances and left the club at the end of the season.

Robbie next surfaced in January 2013 when he signed for Roddy Collins at Athlone Town.
About Owen Humphries

Owen started his League of Ireland career at Monaghan United, breaking into the first team at the start of 2012 and making his league debut on the opening night of the season against Dundalk at Gortakeegan on 2 March. Owen was left without a club when Monaghan withdrew from the league on 18 June 2012 but in January 2013 he was reunited with former boss, Roddy Collins, when he signed for Athlone Town
About Paul Skinner

Paul played schoolboys football at Lourdes Celtic before securing a move to the SPL with Celtic in 2005. He spent three years at Parkhead without making the first team and returned to Ireland to sign for Drogheda United in the summer of 2008.

Paul made his debut for Drogheda in a Setanta Cup game against Cork City on 15 September 2008 and made 3 league appearances in the final weeks of that season. He made a further 33 league and cup appearances over the next two seasons, before leaving Drogheda at the end of the 2010 season.

In February 2011 Paul signed for his former Drogheda boss Alan Mathews at Shelbourne and made 10 appearances in all competitions as the Reds won promotion to the Premier Division. He was also an unused substitute in the club's FAI Cup final defeat to Sligo Rovers. The following year Paul made just 6 league appearances and in December of 2012 he signed for Roddy Collins at Athlone Town.

seeems like a decent squad anybody know the odds for this year? say there better than the 50/1 last year

9/4 to win the League

Unfortunately, Graham Kelly has signed for UCD. Would have been a great signing but UCD thought so too. Apparently he really impressed during the recent friendly.

Do you not think Philly and Noelie will be able to exploit Big Macs lack of speed when we play Longball town.....when was the last time Big Mac looked fit......how many times was he caught for pace last season.....do you not think every team in the division are aware of his lack of pace

The Town didn't play a huge amount of games over the last while and I believe most of what they have been doing was fitness based and my guess is that Big Mac didn't cut the mustard. Such a pity really because he could be a decent player if he could address his fitness/pace issues he would be a class act. Sad to see him go though. I wonder will himself and Des Hope line out against us

Niall Scullion has been signed.

So have Paddy O'Boyle and Garbhan Coughlan actually been signed up?

As far as I know yes
