Five alive

Ronan Hale says Cliftonville will give everything they’ve got to book their passports to Europe.

The Reds kick off the first of five post-split Danske Bank Premiership outings when they welcome Coleraine to Solitude this evening and, with the campaign’s finishing line in sight, Hale is aware of the significance of every match over the course of the month ahead.

“There is a lot still to play for,” he asserts.

“European football is on the line and we’re going to do everything in our power to get that.

“We’ve five massive games and four at home. We’re going to try and give ourselves as best a chance as we can and see where it takes us.

“All we can do is put in the hard work and hopefully get on the right end of the results.”

Carrying pre-match views from the Manager’s Office, The Red Eye’s 24th issue of the campaign looks at the Bannsiders’ end-of-term ambitions and takes an extended trip down memory lane – plus plenty more besides.
