Rovers braced for tough test at Drogs

Hoops manager Michael O’Neill has warned the fans that even though Drogheda have picked up just one point from four games, he is expecting a tough outing for his side as they bid to maintain their six-match unbeaten run in competitive games this season.

“Drogheda got a good result when they defeated Bray Wanderers 1-0 in the EA Sports Cup at the Carlisle Grounds on Monday night — a match I watched carefully. But I am confident we can do what we need to do and get a result,” said O’Neill.
