vs Sligo Rovers at home

There will be a live blog of this game on Action81.com from 7pm.

Both teams appear to be resting players for this one so it will be interesting to see who is weaker and where as a result.

I may be proven wrong when the team sheets go up, but I don't see us resting players. Our next three games are the three biggest for us in a long while. A win is crucial tonight, and it'll probably turn out a win next week against Pat's will be massive too. Don't see where posters here are getting the whole resting players line from.

Cook was ridiculed for resting players for a game before, he said he would never do it again. That said our bench is decent so there could be some changes, but a strong team expected none the least.

Your official Twitter seems to back up the view you guys will be going at full strength. With the cup final ahead I thought you might be taking it easy but there are still some important league games for ye.

Yeah, they can't really risk dropping down to fifth and then losing the Cup Final and missing out on Europe altogether.

Plus, I would have thought they want to get a bit of momentum going ahead of the final; changing the team entirely would hinder that.

That blog is now live here.

Highlights -


Fairly dull game really, though both sides playing nice ineffective ball made it seem better. Feck all highlights to show. But given we were resting five or six who'd otherwise have been ceratin starters (Mulhall, Ward, Corry, Nangle, Boyle - who's fit but played in the U-20s semi instead) and a couple of others like Karl Moore, it wasn't a bad showing.

You can blame Rusty for me missing Killer's goal...
