He made his competitive return as a late substitute in a 1–0 win over Cork City on 13 August, and scored his first competitive goal on his home debut in a 3–0 win over Derry City when he “swivelled onto a ball at the edge of the Derry box and unleashed a lethal finish that dipped over Doherty but under his crossbar”. This earned him his first start, away to Dublin rivals Bohemians. Faherty again scored in a Dublin derby for Pats with an injury-time header to complete a 2–0 win against Shelbourne at Tolka Park. Faherty scored a 90th-minute equaliser away to Drogheda United in the FAI Cup quarter-final replay to take the game into extra time, and converted his kick in the ensuing penalty shootout to help the Saints reach the semi-finals.

Faherty finished the 2010 league season as St. Patrick’s Athletic’s top scorer, with his goals including a diving header against rivals Shamrock Rovers and away to Bohemians.
After three years at Salthill Devon, Faherty chose not to go to university and, despite being a target for clubs such as Ipswich Town and Coventry City and Coventry City, he was signed by Galway United, his hometown teamin July of 2007. According to the Galway Advertiser as having “impressed when introduced for his debut” against Cork City, he appeared often throughout the season, occasionally as a starter, but usually as a sub. His first goal as a senior at the club was in Jeff Kenna’s debut match as manager, when Galway suffered a 3-2 defeat at home against Bray Wanderers in April 2008. The 2008 season ended scoring five times in league and in the year following, he was the club’s top goal scorer with eight goals in all competitions.
