Vinny Perth insists Dundalk can survive its first season without European football in nine years, whether or not he’s still at the helm for the rebuild.

The Lilywhites will either have to win the FAI Cup or bridge an 11-point gap to third place over the remaining 15 matches to qualify for the Europa Conference League.
