Madden aware of Hughes’ threat
DERRY City’s Simon Madden spoke to Sentinel Sport’s Editor Kevin McLaughlin, ahead of their trip to Shelbourne.
The Brandywell men have a number of injury doubts with Stephen McLaughlin struggling with a knee problem, while Mark Farren (calf) and Dermot McCaffrey (hamstring) will have late fitness tests.
However trio Stewart Greacen (suspended), Rory Patterson (hamstring) and Kevin Deery (knee) are all missing, but striker Conor Murphy returns to the squad after he missed last week’s FAI Cup win at UCD, as he was cup tied.
