Shels wary of hopeful Harps - February 16, 2001

Shelbourne v Finn Harps 19:45

Just as Galway's bogey team is Kilkenny, so Shelbourne will be wary of Finn Harps tonight. The Donegal sides have fared even worse than the Cats on their travels, winning only once - but that win came at Tolka Park against the reigning champions and Harps are well up for another crack at the Reds.

Shels striker Richie Foran is suspended - again! - and there's a minor doubt over James Keddy, who has a slight groin strain but should be able to play.

Manager Dermot Keely has hinted that centre backs Tony McCarthy and Pat Scully are looking tired, so Avery John might substitute for one or the other.

Jonathan Minnock is suspended for Harps, so Shane Bradley will switch to left back, with Trevor Scanlon coming in to the centre of the defence. James Marrow will start again in midfield.
