CORNWALL: FANS BACK BEHIND US

MOST League of Ireland players are hitting the beach this week but Rob Cornwall is working through a list of jobs the length of his arm.

But the busy schedule is all for a good cause as the Bohemians centre-back is tying the knot with his fiancé Brittany on Saturday.

The mid-season break divides opinion and Shelbourne boss Damien Duff has hit out at the “amateurish” approach of affording players “a week on the gargle”.

Other managers feel a few days of rest and relaxation will do their players no harm at all and welcome the chance to switch off.

But Cornwall has more on his mind with the wedding looming in Co Meath this weekend and laughed: “I'm up to my eyeballs, I don't want to go away!

“I just gambled (on the date) to be honest.

Gambled on a Saturday, hoping it wasn't Sligo away, so I was blessed.

“It's a small enough wedding but the lads (Bohs teammates) are all invited to the day two.
