He is giving players who have not had a regular run out in the 1st team, a chance to stake a claim for the Finn Harps fixture on Friday and beyond. Gerardo Bruna, Gianni Seraf, Nathan Gartside and Jamie McDonagh who will be coming back from suspension will all feature in tomorrow nights game. Whilst some 1st team regulars will be rested.

That said Declan Devine believes it will be a tough game and will be giving Neal Fenn's Longford team respect.
