Caulfield confident in back-up troops

Cork City manager John Caulfield is hopeful the absence of Darren Dennehy and Garry Buckley from Sunday’s trip to face Limerick will prove an opportunity for other squad members.

City travel to Thomond Park aiming to cut SSE Airtricity League Premier Division leaders Dundalk’s lead to three points. While Caulfield must manage without the suspended Dennehy and Buckley, he believes there is sufficient depth in the squad to cope with the losses.

“They’re a centre-half and a central midfielder so obviously they’re losses, but as well as that they’ve scored goals this season,” he said.
