Donnelly barely got a look in at first team football at the Swans and loan spells at Coventry (a very ill fated one) and Tranmere were the only real way he was getting first team football whilst he was at the Swans
It was time to move on with the Swans now looking elsewhere to fill the roles that Donnelly could have covered and so it was no surprise when the player and the club parted company at the end of last season.
Donnelly though is back with a new club and ready to get back into the action as he explained รขโฌลJustin (Edinburgh) has been trying to get me for a while and I came and talked to him and he told me about how the club are going to be run this season, fighting for promotion, so I was keen to come.
รขโฌลI would like to have played more (since moving from Cliftonville) which is why I have come here to get more games.
รขโฌลI could have gone somewhere else, where I could have taken it easy and chilled out but I want to play football and am happy to be here.
รขโฌลIt is a fresh start and what I needed. I needed to play football and will get my opportunity here. I am not saying it is going to be easy รขโฌโ I will have to work hard for it.”
