Cork City aiming to derail Athlone’s winning start to season
With maximum points from their first two games under their belts, Brendan Place’s side are looking to make a little bit of club history by becoming the first Athlone team since the one managed by the legendary Turlough O’Connor in 1984/85 to win three games on the trot.
For City boss Tommy Dunne, the goal is to bounce back from the 0-2 loss to Waterford last Friday, a game which saw Greg O’ Halloran sent off and therefore ineligible for this evening’s match.
