North’s double ensures points go west

Danny North scored in each half as Sligo Rovers kept their unbeaten Premier Division run intact last night.

This was the former St Patrick’s Athletic striker’s 12th goal for Sligo since joining the club. North scored twice either side of half-time before Patrick Millien made in three in the 85th minute, 60 seconds after making his debut as a replacement for North.

Paddy Kavanagh forced Sligo keeper Gary Rogers into a smart save inside a minute of the first half as the Shelbourne man bore down on goal.
