Buckley’s early brace perfect tonic for City

Cork City 2 Waterford United 0

A beleaguered Waterford side went into the tie on the back on Sunday’s announcement by the board following a team meeting that the club may be forced to trim the playing staff and cut players wages due to the club being unable to attract sufficient financial support through sponsorship or gate receipts.

The players and staff are said to be considering the proposals and a further meeting is due to take place later in the week, when a further decision will be made by the board.
