Sligo get chance to close on leaders

WITH leaders St Patrick’s Athletic not in league action until their clash with Shamrock Rovers at Tallaght on Sunday, Sligo Rovers can move within a point of the Inchicore men at the top of the Premier Division with victory over Bray Wanderers at the Carlisle Grounds tonight (7.45pm).

“We are on a good run of form at the minute although we didn’t play well in the EA Sports Cup tie against Shelbourne at Tolka Park on Monday. But we finished strongly for a 2-1 win,” said Sligo boss Paul Cook.

“That was an important victory as we want to be in competition for all the trophies.”
