In 2003 he returned to Ireland on loan, signing for Drogheda United in late August, where he made 16 league appearances over the final months of the 2003 season.
In 2004, he signed a permanent deal at Drogheda and made a further 24 league appearances, scoring three times.
He moved on at the end of the season, signing for Stephen Kenny at Derry City at the start of the 2005 season.
Since then, he has helped the Candystripes win five League Cups and the FAI Cup in 2006 and 2012.
He went on trial at Bristol Rovers at the end of the 2009 season but he returned home to continue playing with a reconstituted Derry City in the First Division helping he Brandywell club win the title and promotion back to the Premiership.
