Willo McDonagh (born 14 March 1983) is an Irish footballer who plays for Shelbourne. The defensive midfield player has played for Bohemians, Carlisle United, Shamrock Rovers, Glentoran and Monaghan United. He made his Rovers debut on the 18th of March 2005 and went on to make a total of 31 appearances in all competitions scoring 6 goals. McDonagh arrived at The Oval in January 2006 from Shamrock Rovers, and was one of former manager Roy Coyle's final signings before resigning. McDonagh scored his first goal for the club in a 3-2 success against Newry City at the Oval in March, this would be his only for the season. 2006/2007 was a mixed year for McDonagh, with consistency being the main hindrance to him becoming a favourite with the Glentoran crowd. Arguably his best performance for the Glens came in a 4-1 win over Belfast rivals Cliftonville at the Oval in December 2006, where he made surging runs from midfield and scored with a directed header, and many hoped he would have continued this great form into the annual Boxing Day derby clash with arch rivals Linfield, but McDonagh was handed a two-game suspension by the IFA.〔(BBC News )〕 Infamous for his disciplinary record, with 11 bookings to his name this season, he has gained a reputation with officials up all over the country after his alleged two foot stamp on Cliftonville's Ronan Scannell in December's televised CIS League Cup Final, a game which Glentoran went on to win 1-0 thanks to a 32nd minute Gary Hamilton goal. This is McDonagh's only winners medal to date. In 2007 McDonagh was placed on the transfer list. In February 2008 he was loaned out to Armagh City for one season 〔http://armaghcityfc.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=70&Itemid=1〕 Following his release by the Glens, McDonagh signed for Glenavon.〔http://www.glenavonfc.com/pages/archive.htm〕 In August 2011, he signed for Monaghan United, again linking up with Roddy Collins.〔http://monaghanunited.tv/?p=1204〕〔http://www.newsletter.co.uk/irish-premiership/GLENAVON-Club-focus.4360149.jp〕 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.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Monaghan United withdraw from league )〕 He subsequently signed for Longford Town in June 2012, scoring on his debut against Mervue United, in a 5-4 win for his new club.
