Now in his role as goalkeeper, McNulty was a vital part of the side that won back-to-back U21 League titles in 2003 and 2004.
[edit] Professional
McNulty turned professional in 2006 and featured sporadically in vital matches such as the Setanta Cup. Injury deprived him of appearing in the UEFA Cup in 2005 as he lost the opportunity created by first-choice 'keeper Mick Devine's injury.
