City need ‘rub of the green’ to register first win of season

CORK CITY are still in search of their first win of the season as they take on Portadown in Group 2 of the Setanta Cup at Turner’s Cross tonight (7.45).

Manager Damien Richardson feels that his side haven’t enjoyed the ‘rub of the green’ so far, but, after four competitive outings, accepts that it’s time performance was matched with result.

“This is a big game for us,” he says. “Above and beyond doing well in the Setanta Cup itself, we want to get a win. Especially for the sake of the lads who I feel haven’t gotten their just desserts so far. What I don’t want is any of them harbouring doubts. I want to see a progressive performance and then the win should come.”
