Spirits are high, and Bray Wanderers players look forward to deserved night out

Wicklow People
When the Bray Wanderers squad head out tonight, they will have plenty to raise a glass to – and they'll have a few new faces to integrate into the group too.
They will enjoy a players' night out tonight (July 20). With their passage to the next round of the FAI Cup safely secured on Friday, Kilian Cantwell and co will soon shift their focus back to league matters but not before they let their hair down.

Life at the top with Rovers is over as Collie O'Neill steps down

Shamrock Rovers confirmed that Collie O'Neill resigned as the club's women's boss on Thursday. The Drogheda native was in charge of the Hoops for two and half years after Rovers returned to the women's top-flight in 2023 after a nine-year absence. Rovers, who had Ireland international Ruesha Littlejohn in their ranks for the first half of the season, currently sit mid-table in the Women's Premier Division having lost 1-0 at home to DLR Waves last weekend.

Tiernan Lynch explains why Derry fans are only seeing best of Liam Boyce now

Tiernan Lynch reckons Derry City fans are finally getting to see the real Liam Boyce. Lynch brought the 28-time capped Northern Ireland international to the Ryan McBride Brandywell from Hearts last winter, and it took the 34-year-old nine games o register his first goal. And when it came against Drogheda United, it was followed moments later by a red card! Since then, however, he has added 10 more goals to his tally, including hat-tricks in a 7-2 Premier Division win over Waterford and a 5-1 FAI Cup win against Treaty United. Lynch knew it would take a bit of time for Boyce to settle in after his arrival, but he never doubted the Belfastman's ability to deliver once he did. 'I think everybody knew the quality of Liam Boyce, but you can definitely see that out there in training at the moment,' said the Candystripes boss.

'There was always going to be that transition period for every player and any player that comes into a new league. 'They are trying to understand even a new system. He is probably playing in a slightly different position to what he made his name with for Hearts. 'I never had any doubts that his quality would shine through. As we all said, I think that's starting to show.' Even when the goals were hard to come by, Boyce's head didn't drop. 'Boycey was always the type of character where I don't think he lacked any confidence,' insisted Lynch. 'There is certainly no arrogance in him, but I don't think he ever lacked confidence. I think he always knew that he would settle and when the chances came that he would take them. 'We are starting to see that now. Even in the likes of training where he has got himself back, he is fit and hungry, and you are starting to see these wee bursts of class.' Derry are looking to return to winning ways in the league tonight, after their last Premier Division game ended in defeat to Sligo Rovers. 'Unfortunately we fell short against Sligo, which we are hugely disappointed with, but we have to put that behind us and get back on the horse for Bohs on Friday night,' said Lynch.
