MANAGEMENT TEAM VIEW

Despite a recent run of three victories in their last four games, Cabinteely FC Assistant Manager/First Team coach Eddie Gormley is not underestimating the challenge of Wexford under new manager Ian Ryan.
“We are under no illusions. It is going to be a tough task against Wexford. They have been very unlucky not to get off the mark in recent games.”
He continued “We have done really well but it is only the first series of games that are over. We still have another two to go. There are a lot of points to play for. And a lot of tough games are coming up after the break.”
