Hoops host Derry in relegation battle

Shamrock Rovers players will have to put their dispute with the club on hold to focus on the job of beating Derry City in what is sure to be a tense relegation battle at Richmond Park tonight (7.00).

The Hoops players refused to train on Tuesday night and issued a statement through their union, the PFAI, threatening increased industrial action over what they claim is a non-payment of outstanding wages.
