Wins for Rovers and Pats

Shamrock Rovers benefitted from some questionable refereeing to claim all three points in last night’s Dublin derby.

Graham Burke scored a controversially-awarded penalty to give Rovers a 2-1 win at home to Bohemians.

But Rovers are second in the SSE Airtricity Premier Division this morning.

Scottish pair Billy King and Matty Smith gave St. Pat’s a 2-nil win at Finn Harps to put them top.

Sligo can regain the leadership, with a big win this evening at home to Derry City.

There’s a County Louth derby meeting of Dundalk and Drogheda.

And Kevin Sheedy will look to put a turbulent week behind him when his Waterford side welcome Longford to the RSC.
