Former Galway United President, Michael D Higgins recently named his new puppy ‘Misneach’ and the Westerners will be certainly hoping to build on a strong finish to last season; after making a dismal start to the campaign.
The Tribesmen were ninth in the First Division when their manager Alan Murphy was sacked; but made a strong turnaround under John Caulfield, finishing fifth to book a playoff berth where they narrowly lost the play-off final to Longford Town, who subsequently gained promotion to the top-flight with a win over Shelbourne.
LOI clubs continue recruitment drives
As usual at this time of year SSE Airtricity League clubs continue to recruit players ahead of the new season and clubs in both divisions have been busy tying down their current players while looking to strengthen their squads for 2022.
Here's a full list of all players committed to the league for the 2022 season so far.
Kavanagh points Bray to final
Brandon Kavanagh’s brilliant strike in the first half sealed victory for Bray in the second leg clash against Galway United.
Galway’s attack was no match for Bray’s strong defensive performance.
