Noel King still believes he can oversee Dundalk’s escape from relegation despite a series of setbacks on Bank Holiday Monday.

The new Lilywhites boss had begun life back as a League of Ireland boss by beating Bohemians 1-0 and drawing 0-0 against Shelbourne but the basement side lost a tense Louth derby 2-1 to Drogheda United on Monday.
