I think really the players who were injured last season missed a lot.

Romuald Palmer was injured for the whole season, Aidan Keane missed a large part of the season, so did Zach Albacete.

Very good attacking players that I'm hopeful that can bring something to us this season for sure.

Yes, he's determined to do well but we have to look at different ways of playing, sometimes playing with a front two and these are things that we have to adapt and look at that.

Well I think you can't only have one way of playing but yeah I think definitely it's something that we've been working on.

Yeah, brilliant.

Great to see them back in.

Obviously I still live in the area there and delighted for Dundalk to get back up.

We have them early in the season.

We have them in their second home game in Richmond Park.

So yeah, I look forward to that.

It is, yeah, it is, it is, it is.

Particularly, obviously, Owen is playing for Dundalk and, you know, he was only six when I took over Dundalk.

So, you know, he joined our under.

under 14s or 15s so he's gone on to play in the first and get promoted last year so it's great for him and Ciarán Gooduff's done a fantastic job there done really well getting him promoted Did you always see Ciarán as a potential coach?

I think he's always quite an intelligent guy Ciarán always very considered you know

I didn't know that that was the path he wanted to go down.

You never can be sure.

People find different paths.

But he's had a fantastic start to his career.
