Description

Longford Town F.C. is an Irish football club playing in the FAI League of Ireland.

The club, founded in 1924 and elected to the league in 1984, hails from Longford, County Longford and play their home matches at Flancare Park. Club colours are red and black, and the club goes by the nickname Town or De Town. The club asked Bohemians for permission to use these club colours in the year they were formed. The story goes that Longford didn't have jerseys for their first game against Bohs and had to use their rivals spare (home) jerseys.

Longford are currently bottom of the Premier League having been docked six points for administrative errors, but after a magnificent run, De Town have managed to close the gap at the bottom of the league from 13 points to a single point.
