‘There has been a similar trait’ – OK

COLERAINE boss Oran Kearney spoke to the club’s media team after the Bannsiders were beaten by Dungannon Swifts…

A goal in each half gave the hosts all three points as the Stripes lost for a fourth successive game.

Kearney admits there has been a recent trend in those defeats as his side have conceded early goals and have to chase the game.

The boss values the first-team squad as the best he has managed during his two stints in charge but knows ‘hard work’ is required to overturn recent results.
