HE CONN TAKE THE HITS

Bray Wanderers v Limerick 7.30pm

HARRY KENNY believes Bray’s prized asset Dylan Connolly can withstand the attentions of Premier Division hardmen to keep the Seagulls soaring. The Wicklow club are aiming to extend their unbeaten home record to 12 games when they entertain last year’s First Division champions. But Kenny said of the winger (right) who is a doubt with a groin strain: “Dylan’s copping a lot of rough treatment from the opposition teams so far but he is keeping his feet on the ground. He enjoys great support from the rest of the lads so I am not worried about him. “We treat each game with the same deadly intent. Limerick are travelling needing points. I am expecting a physical game. The stakes are high on both sides. They have their own high profile striker in Rodrigo Tosi so it’ll be interesting to see his style in Bray.” The hosts are without injured left-back Kevin Lynch while midfielder Keith Buckley could also miss out. The Blues are boosted by the return of Dave O’connor and John O’flynn.
