He also played in the FAI Cup final that year as Shels went down to Sligo Rovers at the Aviva Stadium after a penalty shootout.

The following year Kevin cemented his reputation as one of the leading young talents in the domestic game with another 24 league appearances as Shels returned to the top flight and at the end of 2012 he left The Reds to join for English League One side Yeovil Town, signing for manager Gary Johnson on 1st January 2013.
