New signings boost Sligo before St Pat's game

Sligo Rovers can move out of the bottom two should they beat St Patrick’s Athletic at The Showgrounds tonight 7.45pm.

Gavin Peers, Stephen Parkhouse and Richie Ryan remain absent but new signings and the return of players from injury and suspension mean there will be a host of changes in Paul Cook's side.

Danny Ventre and Conor O'Grady return from suspension. Rafael Creato, Owen Morrison and Danny Keohane are back from injury, while new signings Joe Kendrik and Eoin Doyle are also in contention.

Martin Nicolas Camano could make his debut after signing on Thursday, along with Michael McGrath who joins from Galway United.

St Pat’s travel to Sligo without Mark Quigley (jaw), Gints Friemanis (hand), Mark Leech (leg) and Gary Dempsey (leg), while boss Jeff Kenna is also likely to rest a few players after their midweek game in Malta.
