Almost Dunne and dusted

SUPER Saturday has dawned at the top of the Airtricity League First Division as Shelbourne and Cork City prepare to go head to head at Tolka Park to decide the title on the last day of the season.

After an absence of five years, Shels are already celebrating their return to the top-flight with promotion having been secured thanks to their resounding 4-0 win over Finn Harps on Tuesday night. A draw tonight will be enough to see Shels crowned champions before they turn their attention to the FAI Cup final where they will meet Sligo Rovers.

For Cork City, it’s still everything to play for as even promotion is not yet guaranteed ahead of the final round of fixtures. But a draw for the visitors will be enough to see them go up while a win would secure the title for a club which, only two seasons ago, died and was reborn in the most turbulent episode in its history.
