Robertson's Derry debut tonight

New boss John Robertson takes control of Derry City for the first time as they take on Sligo Rovers in tonight's eircom League of Ireland Premier Division clash at the Brandywell, kick-off 7.45pm.

City may have to plan without Pat McCourt, Ken Oman and Greg O'Halloran, while Neil McCafferty misses out through suspension.

New signing Sammy Morrow should be available for the Candystripes and Ciaran Martyn has returned from a loan spell in Norway.

Chris Turner misses out for Sligo and goalkeeper Richard Brush is carrying a knock so may not be risked for the trip to the Brandywell.
