Peter Kelly calls time on Kildare career

The defender was a stalwart for the county for over a decade.

KILDARE”S PETER KELLY has brought the curtain down on his intercounty career. 

The Two Mile House clubman won an All Star in his debut season with the Lilywhites in 2010. 

“It has been an honour and a privilege to fulfil a childhood dream in wearing the white jersey for over a decade,” Kelly says. “I have soldiered with some of the best people I will ever meet and made lifelong friends.

“Firstly I would like to thank the supporters who were always there through thick and thin. Although we never reached the Promised Land in my time, there were many great days; sometimes it’s not about the destination but the journey itself.

“I would also like to thank the various management and backroom teams (particularly those acting in a voluntary capacity) who never left a stone unturned to ensure the players were given the best opportunity on the pitch.”

    He should have called ‘his dad’ before the Poland game to explain all this. Because yet again in the analysis Dunphy went for the most likely path to criticising the manager instead of listening to other opinion.

    Anyway feck it, love Wes, Dunphy is good craic too. Come on Ireland!!!

    So both the manager and the player have said it but the Dunph told us all Wes was fit last time and will tell the nation tonight that O’Neill doesn’t trust him…any chance of any research being done at all? Any? Bueller?

    Dunphy is the biggest spoofer around. He told us last season that Gareth bale was definitely returning to the premier league because of what he heard from ‘reliable’ source Marca.
