St Patrick’s Athletic are 90 minutes away from Europa Conference League group stage football.
Stephen Kenny believes St Patrick’s Athletic are not getting the support they need from the FAI to pull off a historic European group stage qualification.
League officials could yet make the decision to pull the Oriel Park trip from the Saints’ manic schedule - with a decision allowed up to 24 hours before kick-off. “Dundalk wouldn’t have qualified but for Fran Gavin making the decision to cancel a couple of our games. That was pivotal for us at the time,” he said.
“It’s my opinion that we should get support and be able to prepare properly. You can’t prepare properly .“We have to play in the heat in Turkey on Wednesday, but we want to get through, we are desperate to get through, determined.“Turkey, that’s a high level. We have to go up levels, they don’t. The reason I think we should is because we have to go up levels. It’s extremely difficult.”
