Keith Quinn (footballer) - Playing Career

Playing Career

Along with brother Stephen, Keith Quinn followed eldest brother Alan to England when he transferred to Sheffield United. Having captained the youth team at The Blades he progressed to becoming a regular fixture in the reserve team. In March 2009 Quinn was loaned to Central Coast Mariners in Australia's A League. This was a somewhat strange move, as the A League was not in season during Quinn's loan, and Quinn could not play in the Asian Champions League as he registered too late. After failing to make a first team appearance for the Blades he was released at the end of the 2008–09 season.

Quinn returned to Ireland to continue his career with Leinster Senior League side Bluebell United before signing professionally with League of Ireland club Sporting Fingal in January 2010.

He signed for First Division side Waterford United on the 19th of December to play for the 2011 season.

He joined Monaghan United in the summer transfer window and made 13 appearances scoring 1 goal. In December he agreed to stay on at the club in 2012. On 18 June 2012, the club announced their withdrawal from the League of Ireland and all of their playing staff were released by the club. August 2012 Quinn signs for Cork City .

After just three appearances for Cork, he signed for Longford Town in January 2013.

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or career:

    Is not the tremendous strength in men of the impulse to creative work in every field precisely due to their feeling of playing a relatively small part in the creation of living beings, which constantly impels them to an overcompensation in achievement?
    Karen Horney (1885–1952)

    The problem, thus, is not whether or not women are to combine marriage and motherhood with work or career but how they are to do so—concomitantly in a two-role continuous pattern or sequentially in a pattern involving job or career discontinuities.
    Jessie Bernard (20th century)
