The Rebel Army is all
set to make a strong stand in this campaign and look forward to continue their
perfect start in this edition of the League of Ireland.
After all this squad
has seen their luck dwindle down at the end of three campaigns, seeing their rivals,
the Dundalk Lilywhites raise the league shield and their efforts coming short.
I mean three years
straight!
With another
undefeated and resurgent in recently promoted Drogheda United squad, the city
squad unspoiled campaign that will be a test at United Park.
So far the Drogs squad, is looking like an
all-around contender and with a couple of wins in its first two matches of the
campaign, we may have a fighter in Peter Mahon Boys.
After back to back
wins in the opening first two matches of the campaign, as John Caulfield Boys
are riding high in the top spots in the league overall table.
After winning their
opening, matches against the Finn Harps and later Galway United felling prey of
the Rebel Army fury.
In week, three of the
2017 edition of the Airtricity League of Ireland many squads will put their
streaks in peril and one of them being Cork City, still many experts give the
City squad a certain edge and considered as the overall favorites to take the
win.
For Manager Caulfield,
seeing in three of his starters Sean Maguire, John Kavanagh and Johnny Dunleavy
with injuries and leaving an enormous hole in city initial eleven.
Still with these players
on a day to day with their injuries, for their Man at the helm improvising in
his starting eleven will be one tough but not impossible task, after all the
City crew have a one of a kind bench with plenty of hungry and talented
players.
That will be a test
of nerves for the Leesiders and a loss can be a coup for their plans of trying
to take the shield out of the Lilywhites and in the next Europa elimination rounds
try to make it into the fianl stage of the knockout rounds.
For now, they are
looking forward to succeed in each one of their matches and keep a close chase
on their archrivals the Dundalk Boys, still this squad can do the ultimate of efforts
and possibly crown itself as the league champion.
At the end, this is
one determined Rebel Army to make all sorts of headlines in this campaign, but
the base of their success will be of not undermining their foes and playing
them with all around respect.
Despite the odds
favoring the City bunch, still this can be anyone’s game.
