Ramblers target must-win game

Cobh Ramblers v Bray Wanderers:HAVING ALLOWED a couple of precious points to slip through their fingers at Belfield last weekend, Cobh Ramblers will be desperate to take all three at home to Bray this evening as the team embarks on what manager Stephen Henderson sees as a run of must-win games.

The hosts will again be without Michael Mulconry and Kieran O'Reilly with both still sidelined by hamstring injuries but Graham Cummins returns from injury and is in contention to start.

Wanderers must cope without Dane Massey (torn ligaments) but Colm Tresson is getting close to full fitness again after a long lay-off with a hamstring problem. Defenders Derek Foran and Kevin Doherty are battling ankle injuries but both should be fit to start.
