Rock solid performer that was part of the early foundations of the club.

-Blacky- moved from midfield anchor man to defensive stalwart. Good reader of the game, with a perfect timing heading ability.

Left the club during the summer of 2007 to test himself at a higher standard and unsurprisingly has gone on to play for Ballynure OB at Intermediate level along with Davey Johnston and Karl Woods.

He returned to North End in the summer of 2008 and went on to form a near perfect partnership with Billy Kehoe.
