What They Say
Drogheda United manager Kevin Doherty: “We don't want to keep a lid on our momentum or confidence but there is no danger of complacency. The players would not allow it and we would not allow it. They are not a million miles away from us if you look at the league tables and we have no right to have complacency playing against any team.”
Wexford manager James Keddy: “Most people expect us to lose today but it’s who performs and who takes their chances. All I'm looking for is a performance. If we perform and we get beat, I'd be happy enough. There's nothing worse than coming back into a dressing room, knowing you haven't played to your full potential.”
