First Division Run In

[TiocfaidhArmani]

It's a strange game for us, we're not used to being relaxed before games! While we obviously want to win, the main aim was to get up. Now that's done I don't know how that is going to affect us tbh. It's also tricky for Cork, if they push too hard and get caught out then the pressure is on. Has the makings of a cracking game with a good crowd. Whilst a draw will do us both (from a promotion point of view) Cork really seem to want to get the win......Looking forward to it!

It's worth about €12,500 extra in prize money for the club to win the league so I'd imagine it will be drilled to them it's still an important game that we need to win, although there's also a title up for grabs so I've no worries that we will try and assert ourselves in the game for a win.

Shels won't be busting a gut for the win but they won't want to lose either, whereas this game is all that's left for the City players to garner some glory. If City score first then Shels will do everything they can to at least equalize but if Shels score first I'd expect them to sit back and defend it.
Again, I don't know how to predict tomorrow night. Will be very interesting to see how having promotion wrapped up affects us. If we needed a draw to be promoted I'm highly confident we'd get it but I do think there is a high chance of us being set up for a draw and that can very often end up with negative results.

Circumstances are definitely in Cork's favour, but we do have enough in our squad to pull off at least a draw.

Being realistic the 12,500 isn't going to motivate the players unless they're getting a fairly decent portion of it. Those who would be properly motivated to actually win the league (Dawson, Casso etc.) won't need to even worry about the 12,500, and those who we suspect took part in underhanded dealings against Sheriff most likely won't care. But as I said, we've the quality in our squad to score 1-2 goals regardless, which should be enough to see us through.
