Sad news breaking tonight about the death of Bagatelle frontman Liam Reilly. One of Ireland's greatest songwriters, he leaves an unbelievable legacy of songs. Only set to turn 66 on Jan 29th, he has been taken far too soon. Hopefully he gets remembered in Dundalk as he should

Just spoke to my dad. He said do you know an Ailish Kelly? I said yeah she works for Dundalk FC in the office. Made his day that he got a call from her asking how he was and if there was anything the club could do for him. Little things matter. Fair play to Dundalk for doing them

No one has or probably ever will play more games for Dundalk than Tommy McConville. From his first game in 1964 to his last in 1986, Tommy made 580 appearances, scoring 26 goals.
The word legend is overused but it certainly applies to him

153 players have put on a Dundalk jersey since Chris Shields has been at the club. Some have gone on to become internationals and many more will be fondly remembered for playing their part in a special era but no player epitomised the last decade or so like Shieldsy.
Thank you.

Led to believe talented local teenager Ryan O'Kane has been offered a contract by Dundalk after impressing in pre-season. The former Bellurgan player was Player of the Tournament at the SuperCupNI in 2018 and made his NIFL Premiership debut for Warrenpoint at just 15 a year later

Thanks to Mark for meeting me. This was a dispute I never wished to happen but felt I had to fight my corner on issues I knew to be true for the sake of professional credibility and integrity. I'm happy to move on and work with Mark and others in Oriel for the good of the club
Despite our differences, I'm pleased to say that
