Shamrock Rovers forward Graham Burke opens up on what he expects as the race for the 2023 League of Ireland Premier Division crown heats up.
Graham Burke says Shamrock Rovers will have to fight harder than ever if they are to achieve the coveted four-in-a-row this year.
Just behind the Saints are Derry City and Bohemians - and the Candystripes have a game-in-hand over their rivals. “As every year goes on, teams get stronger and everybody comes to try and take that prize away from you. There will be no let-up for Burke and his teammates, with a home game against Bohemians next week and a trip to Derry a fortnight later.
“As players, and as a group, with the experience that we have, we know how to put that behind us and move on. The FAI Cup defeat to tomorrow night’s opponents was another blow, with Burke admitting: “A goal of ours this season was to have a good Cup run and get back to the Aviva.
