Skipper Heary back for Shels as resurgent Cork face ultimate test

SHELBOURNE welcome back team skipper Owen Heary from suspension for their game against a resurgent Cork City at Tolka Park tonight (7.45) in the eircom league.

Heary was one of those who contributed most to Shelbourne’s dominance of Cork at Turner’s Cross when the teams last met. He and others like Dave Rogers, Stuart Byrne, Jim Crawford bossed Cork as they cruised to a two goal win.

Since then, however, much has changed with Cork. “I was surprised they took so long to get going,” said Shels manager Pat Fenlon, “but they are a good team and it will be hard.”
