Bennett wants no more delays to title party

The delirious scenes in Cardiff on Monday night whetted Alan Bennett’s appetite for a repeat tomorrow evening in Dalymount Park.

Cork City can secure the Premier Division title with three games to spare with a win over Bohemians. And there is no sense that veteran Bennett would prefer to wait for a home coronation when City face Derry at Turner’s Cross on Monday.

Indeed, he’d happily have taken a low-key conclusion to the club’s quest last Saturday, had Dundalk stumbled in Ballybofey.
