Bohs look to get points on table

Bottom-of-the-table Bohemians will be looking for their first points of the season tonight when they take on relegation favourites Waterford United at Dalymount Park.

With three successive defeats, the Gypsies have endured their worst ever start to the season since relegation was introduced though a promising performance in last week’s 1-0 defeat by Cork has lifted some of the gloom around the club.

But tonight, player-manager Gareth Farrelly has major worries with Des Byrne (hamstring), Fergal Harkin (groin), Jason McGuinness (groin), Vinny Arkins (flu) and Mark O’Brien (hip) all doubtful while Aidan Collins and John Paul Kelly are suspended.

Waterford, meanwhile, will be without suspended captain Chris Deans while new signing Paul Ometeso could make his debut.
