John Ryan is looking forward to this game having added Philly Hughes to his squad “I hope that Philly will convert the chances that our football has produced “ John told kildarecountyfc.com.
Philly last played for Kildare in 2003 and if he is half as successful as he was then, Kildare will begin to pull away from the bottom of the division.
Also included in the squad is David O’Connell although there is a doubt over Eoin Kavanagh who received a knock in last weeks match against Dundalk.
Our record against Athlone is good and the Team are looking forward to keep that run going to night
