This was just their second league win in 16 games, stretching all the way back to last September.
Drogheda United 3 Sligo Rovers 1 SLIGO ROVERS PROVED no match for Drogheda United as Kevin Doherty’s team roared back into winning form with an impressive come-from-behind victory at Weavers Park.
United — with five draws in 10 Premier Division outings — are league specialists in that regard. A share of the spoils would do little for them but at least maintain the status quo for Sligo two places above them. Sligo arrived on Boyneside without a win in four matches; their fine early season form tapering off of late. Without a host of key players including Max Mata, Fabrice Hartmann, Simon Power and Nando Pijnaker, they struggled to reassert themselves after a strong opening.
