‘Rebel Kante’ says invincibility has not crossed Cork City minds

Conor McCormack insists there’s no talk of records or invincibility in the Cork City dressing room, despite the runaway league leaders’ remarkable haul of maximum points with over a third of the season gone.

“People can talk about it but that’s not something that has crossed my mind,” he says. “We’re not thinking about records. We want to look back at the end of this season and be able to say it was successful. There is always someone ready to knock you down when you get too comfortable and take your eye off the ball. We won’t let that happen to us.

“We’re only concentrating on ourselves and we’re not bothered by what other teams are doing. It doesn’t interest us in the slightest. It doesn’t matter to us whether we are one point ahead or 20 points ahead: We will keep on doing what we’re doing.
