They debated the pros and cons, devised a plan and, finally, resolved to start a football club. The club was originally known as <b>EMFA</b>, becoming Kilkenny City in 1989. Jim Rhatigan was appointed as the club's secretary a position he still holds and since then he has become closely associated with football in Kilkenny. <i>EM</i> stood for Emmett Street and <i>FA</i> for Fatima Place where Jim Rhatigan grew up.<sup id="cite_ref-sse1_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-sse1-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Initially EMFA competed in the U18 Kilkenny and District Youth League under the management of Donie Butler. Donie Butler served as Commercial Manager of the FAI during the <a href="/wiki/Jack_Charlton" title="Jack Charlton">Jack Charlton</a> years. The club was unable to afford a new set of jerseys and so agreed to play in an all white strip. The logic being that all the players had at least one white T-shirt or shirt they could wear. The club's colours changed to claret and blue before changing again to black and amber, coinciding with the renaming of the club. </p><p>EMFA graduated from junior football in 1971–72 season. Jim Rhatigan became their manager and the club remained in junior football until 1984. During this period the club purchased 5.7 acres (23,000 m<sup>2</sup>) of land from a local farmer by the name of Mick Murphy, owner of the adjacent Tennypark House, for £16,000 punts. They had previously played their home games at the Freshford Road grounds, St. James Park. The ground was originally called Tennypark and was later named Buckley Park in honour of Marty Buckley. A bid of One million was made for the club's grounds in the late eighties but was rejected in the favour of football. </p><p>In 1984 the club won the Junior league and cup remaining undefeated throughout the entire season. It was decided that he club should apply for admission to the then League of Ireland (now the Airtricity League). In their maiden season Kilkenny City then known as EMFA, (from 1985 to 1989) finished tenth in the First Division. Their first <a href="/wiki/League_of_Ireland" title="League of Ireland">League of Ireland</a> game was played on 8 October 1985 at home to Derry City and ended in a 1–1 draw. </p><p>EMFA won their first honour in 1987, winning the <a href="/wiki/League_of_Ireland_First_Division_Shield" title="League of Ireland First Division Shield">League of Ireland First Division Shield</a> defeating <a href="/wiki/Finn_Harps" class="mw-redirect" title="Finn Harps">Finn Harps</a> 4–2 in <a href="/wiki/Oriel_Park" title="Oriel Park">Oriel Park</a>. The club changed its name to Kilkenny City in 1989. Under <a href="/wiki/Joe_McGrath_(Irish_footballer)" title="Joe McGrath (Irish footballer)">Joe McGrath</a> they reached the FAI Cup semi-final in 1991, before suffering defeat to <a href="/wiki/Shamrock_Rovers" class="mw-redirect" title="Shamrock Rovers">Shamrock Rovers</a>. </p><p>In the 1996–97 season Kilkenny City won the First Division title with 11 points to spare over their nearest rivals Drogheda United thus gaining promotion to the Premier Division. Their stay in the premier was short however as they finished in eleventh the following season and were relegated back to the First Division. </p><p>In the 1999–2000 season Kilkenny city finished third and beat <a href="/wiki/Waterford_United" class="mw-redirect" title="Waterford United">Waterford United</a> in a promotion-relegation playoff returning to the Premier. However, Kilkenny city were unable to extend their stay in the top flight beyond a single season managing only a single league victory throughout the whole season. General manager Jim Rhatigan wrote "Mud, Sweat and Jeers" a semi autobiographical account of the founding of the club. </p><p>The club celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2006. The anniversary was celebrated with a memorial mass at Father Fiachra's Church presided over by Father Willie Purcell and complete with a gospel choir. <a href="/wiki/Dave_Bassett" title="Dave Bassett">Dave Bassett</a>, former <a href="/wiki/Wimbledon_F.C." title="Wimbledon F.C.">Wimbledon</a> manager was guest of honour with former <a href="/wiki/Northern_Ireland" title="Northern Ireland">Northern Ireland</a> international, <a href="/wiki/Gerry_Taggart" title="Gerry Taggart">Gerry Taggart</a> also attending the club's anniversary banquet at the Lyrath Estate Hotel. </p><p>2005 was notable for Kilkenny City by the arrival of <a href="/wiki/Pat_Scully" title="Pat Scully">Pat Scully</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was a season of two halves for the Black Cats. Their record before June read – played 15, won 1, drew 4 and lost 10. They sat on the bottom of the table with just 7 points out of a possible 45. The squad was bolstered in key areas with a handful of summer transfers including David Cassidy from <a href="/wiki/Derby_County_F.C." title="Derby County F.C.">Derby County</a>. The new signings turned things around and immediately went on a run of six victories in a row culminating with the 5–0 destruction of Dundalk at Dundalk's home patch.
