Grit O'red Is Clear To See

Sligo dig in to down the Gypsies after being hauled level

SLIGO have come out of the blocks fast - and a strong finish at Dalymount Park keeps their unbeaten run going at the top of the table.

David Cawley’s 86th-minute strike was the icing on the cake for Liam Buckley’s side after Mark Byrne came off the bench to restore the Bit O’Red’s lead against Bohs.

But experienced Gypsy Keith Ward will have nightmares about his late miss that would have levelled it up at 2-2 just before Cawley scored.

After a rollicking start and then two superbly taken goals either side of half-time left the game in the balance, Byrne latched onto Johnny Kenny’s crucial flick on to beat James Talbot from close range.
