Dundalk are facing critical battles on and off the pitch ahead of Thursday’s visit of St Patrick’s Athletic on Thursday (7.45pm).

While victory is needed for Jon Daly’s side at Oriel Park to leapfrog Drogheda United off the foot of the table, Irish-born US businessman Brian Ainscough is attempting to offload his shareholding.
