St Patrick’s Athletic must play a league game in between their historic European play-off.
STEPHEN KENNY HAS again vented his frustration with the FAI over St Patrick’s Athletic’s League of Ireland fixture scheduling.
On Tuesday, the manager said it was “insane” that St Pat’s must play their Premier Division game with Dundalk this Sunday, in between the historic European play-off.St Pat’s submitted a request to the FAI for their Sunday trip to Oriel Park to be re-arranged given the significance of their European commitments, but they were informed that they must fulfill the fixture.
“They have a rest. We have a game against them in five-and-three-quarter days. We’ll have our boots on at 4.10pm Irish time on Wednesday but we have a game in between. Even apart from the game, preparation time is zero.” “I know more than anyone because I have been involved in more games than anyone as a manager. I have been involved in a team that came back from St Petersburg on a Friday and played the cup final on the Sunday. I have been involved in all of those things.
