CONNOLLY is a powerful right-back who loves to get forward. He has developed an excellent partnership on the right side with David Norris and is a superb crosser of the ball.
Shelly came through the youth ranks at Argyle to make his League debut in the final game of the 2000/01 season.
He was sent out on loan to non-league outfit Bideford during the following season, before returning to Home Park.
Connolly began to fully establish himself as an Argyle player in the 2003/04 season when he helped the Pilgrims to the Second Division title, and earned himself a new two-year deal with the club.
In Argyle's first season in the Coca-Cola Championship, Shelly shared the right-back role with David Worrell.
He lost his place to Anthony Barness at the beginning of the following season, but soon regained the right-back spot and kept it for the remainder of the season.
Last season was another excellent one for the young Scouser and there is no doubt he will be Argyle's first choice right-back this term.
