O’Flynn a major doubt as Richardson’s City look to reclaim top spot

CORK CITY’S search for the goals that will deliver the eircom League title may have to come from a second-string strike force at Finn Harps tonight (7.45).

City will arrive at Ballybofey, home of the premier division’s bottom side, trailing leaders Derry City by three points with two games in hand, but possibly without two of the men whose goals have got them to that position.

Definitely out of action is Neale Fenn, who sustained ankle ligament damage during the 1-0 home win over Drogheda United at Turners Cross on Friday night. And manager Damien Richardson will wait until the very last minute before he rules out Fenn’s strike partner, leading scorer John O’Flynn, who travelled north from Leeside with the team yesterday but is carrying a groin injury.
