Drogheda v Dundalk Tonight, 7.45pm
CONOR KEELEY has warned Drogheda United's league rivals that hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
Drogs have been tipped to struggle but are off to a solid start with two wins and two draws from their opening five games, going into tonight's sold-out Louth derby.
While the majority of Premier Division clubs have increased their budgets this season, Drogheda were forced to cut theirs.
Not that you would know it so far after a start that includes wins over UCD and Sligo Rovers and a draw with champions Shamrock Rovers.
Keeley, the ex-Cabinteely centre-back who arrived from Ballymena over the winter, knows Drogheda cannot afford to get carried at this early juncture.
