It was an evening of upsets in the First Division last night as Cobh Ramblers sunk Shelbourne and Wexford prevailed against Bray Wanderers.

CORK CITY FORAS CO-OP will be looking to get their first home points on the board in the Airtricity First Division this evening when they take on Mervue United at Turner’s Cross (kick off 7.45pm).

WHEN Giovanni Trapattoni walks out at Croke Park this evening for his first game as manager of Ireland, the scene will be just a little bit different from the one he experienced on the only other occasion he was in the dug-out for a match in the Republic.

NOT A bad time to open an account.

IRELAND’S U-19 side were unlucky losers to an impressive Portugal in a friendly at Belfield last night.
