Always, as a manager, and
as a team, you want to go
into every game keeping a
clean sheet, and also scoring
as many goals as possible.
So to finally get a home win
last Friday, and in the process
keep a fifth clean sheet, was
pleasing for all concerned. We must now see that as
a step for us in the right direction, and it should give
us encouragement and belief to improve as the season
rolls into the second phase
of games. We all agree
we have had a stuttering
start to our campaign, so
we will look to last Friday’s
result to give us the kick start
we need.

lovely to see the 19s out in force at the Rovers game
on Friday. Some of these lads are now out of under 19
football, and so they will continue their pathway with
our first team squad – Mark Walsh, Andy and Dean
Reidy to name just a few.
Tonight we have Finn Harps down for the return of the
opening night fixture, and they will be a very tough
nut to crack. Under Ollie Horgan they are playing with
a steely determination, and have some very exciting
young players in their squad, Ruairi Keating and Carel
Tiofack to name just two. I do
know our supporters down
here have a very healthy
respect for Finn Harps and
their supporters, so it is a
very warm welcome I wish
