No holding back for United

Date Published: 23-May-2008

A BUSY week for Galway United kicks-off in Dublin tonight when Jeff Kenna brings his side to Dalymount Park to take on Bohemians in the first game of the second series in the league (kick-off 7.45pm).

United go into the game on the back of an unbeaten four game run, and while they will be anxious to extend that against one of the title favourites tonight, the real test comes in Terryland Park on Monday night when United host fellow strugglers Cobh Ramblers (kick-off 7.45pm).

Not having a large and experienced squad, Kenna won’t have the luxury of resting key players for tonight’s game, but even if he had that option, the manager is not considering going down that route, especially at this stage of the season.

“That might be something I would look at towards the end of the season if we were sitting pretty, and I wanted to take a look at a couple of players, but not at this stage of the season.

“We are on a good run now, and I want to bring a bit of continuity to the side. I don’t have a very big squad anyway, but no, I’ll be picking my strongest team for every game. We are confident of going to Dalymount, and if we do that will instill great confidence ahead of the game with Cobh on Monday.
