Career
Club career
The well travelled O'Halloran joined Galway United in July 2007, signing from Derry City whom he had joined only a few months earlier in February 2007;[1] this was after a year-long spell with Shelbourne where he won a League winners medal. The player had joined Shelbourne in December 2005[2] after spending eight seasons at Cork City. Having spent the beginning of his career at Crosshaven AFC, he moved to Leeds United and then to Hull City before moving to his home country.
Formerly a captain with Cork City, he has previously had a loan spell at Longford Town, before speculation of a move to Waterford United was quashed following his move to Shelbourne.
O'Halloran rejoined former club Shelbourne on loan from Galway United for the first half of 2008 season[3]. O'Halloran was on the Galway United transfer list from July 1, 2008 when his loan period with Shelbourne ended.[4]. He immediately joined Cobh Ramblers in July 2008 for the remainder of the 2008 season.
On 2 March 2010, it was confirmed that he would be one of the first new singings by new League of Ireland club Cork City FORAS Co-op and would act as player/assistant Manager for the club signing a one-year contract.[5]
International career
O'Halloran has two Irish Under-21 caps under his belt - against Ghana and Portugal. In 1999, he picked up a bronze medal at the UEFA Under-18s Championship.
