Colin Healy: “It’s been a difficult start, but we keep going. We’re in it together."

After a slow start in their home defeat to Bohs, Healy is confident City will make a fast start to Friday's crucial match against UCD.

FAST START: SSE Airtricity League Premier Division, Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium, Derry 24/2/2023

Cork City’s first home match back in the top-flight of Irish football promised a lot but ultimately delivered very little.

Despite being roared on by a capacity crowd of 6,487, City’s first Premier Division fixture at Turner’s Cross since November 2020 ended in disappointment as they were comfortably beaten 2-1 by Bohemians on the opening night of the season two weeks ago.
