Mick Cooke says Bray Wanderers relishing tilt with league champs Dundalk

As Dundalk know better than most in recent years, points win prizes.

This evening at the Carlisle Grounds, however, it’s as much about performance for Bray Wanderers’ boss Mick Cooke whose side has the honour of hosting the champions in the first defence of their 2015 title.

“Tonight will tell me where we really are,” said Cooke, who’s done well in bolstering his squad with the likes of Conor Kenna, Ryan Brennan and Dean Kelly ahead of the new campaign.
