The ‘Bit ‘o Red’ got their own campaign off to a fantastic start at the weekend with an impressive win in Inchicore. They will no doubt look to carry that into this game, mindful however that they only took one point from four games against Ruaidhri Higgins’ side last season. The City boss confirmed yesterday that Ciaron Harkin will miss the first ‘derby’ of the campaign after the midfielder was forced off towards the end of Friday night’s match. “We’ll have him scanned this week to see the extent of the injury but he’ll play no part in this one. Other than that we’re working with the same squad from the weekend” said Higgins.
Reflecting on the first couple of games, the City boss said he was happy with the start, but it was only that. “Once we came off the field we were turning our attention to Monday night. We can’t afford to lose the momentum of nights like this” he said. “Of course it’s a tough start but every game in this league is a challenge. ” “Sligo have gone to St Pats and won and not many teams will do that this season.
