Success on Limerick front key to Con’s league progress

RUNAWAY AIB League leaders Cork Constitution set one goal at the start of the season — maximise their points take in Limerick.

With victories over Garryowen and UL Bohemian and a draw against champions Shannon, Constitution can’t be overhauled and are guaranteed a home semi-final, win, lose or draw against Ballymena at Temple Hill this afternoon (2.30).

But one of the three could yet come back to haunt Con, because it’s almost certain that a Limerick side (probably Shannon or Garryowen) will provide the opposition in the April 28 semi final at Temple Hill.
