Graham Cummins: Of course Caulfield would love to get one over on City

I still find it hard to take Caulfield’s comments from three weeks ago seriously - when he labelled City “overwhelming favourites” for the league.

The League of Ireland Premier Division would benefit from both Galway United and Cork City being in it. Unfortunately, there is only one guaranteed place in next season’s top-tier for teams in this year’s First Division. 

That’s likely to be one of the two, such has been their dominance this year. Tonight, they meet at Deacy Park and although the result will not determine who goes on to lift the league trophy, the psychological impact could be huge.
