Cork City manager Colin Healy has confirmed that he has received a three-match touchline ban from the FAI which includes Friday night’s potentially title-deciding encounter away to Galway United.

City, who haven’t lost away from home in the league this season, head to Eamonn Deacy Park knowing a victory will see them become first division champions and secure their automatic return to the top flight of Irish football in the process.
