Blues look to new trio for inspiration

Ahead of their game against Bray, Waterford have been boosted by the addition of three players to their squad, reversing the recent trend which has seen an exodus of key players from the RSC. Willie Doyle, Willie Bruton and skipper John Frost all departed in the past seven days, following hot on the heels of Alan Reynolds and Daryl Murphy.

But now the embattled Blues have strengthened their ranks with the acquisition of former Drogheda and Bohemians midfielder John Lester and, on loan from Limerick FC, striker Derek McCarthy. PJ Banville also returns to the club after taking time out to concentrate on gaelic football with Wexford.
