Irish Football Online has closed with immediate effect.

I would like to thank those who have helped the site out over the last five years and without whose help this day might have come sooner.

I would like to especially thank the following people for their help:

I would like to thank the players and coaching staff at all the League of Ireland clubs for keeping things interesting over the last five years and for the most part doing their best to avoid hitting me on the sidelines.

I would like to thank all my fellow photographers who have put up with me on the sidelines and at press conferences. Keep up the good work everyone.

Before closing I would also like to acknowledge the good work done by Cork City, Dundalk, Finn Harps, Shelbourne, Waterford United and Wexford Youths this year with their regular team bulletins/press releases.

Thank you and goodbye
Tom Carey
