Russell: Avenue Have To Refocus Quickly For Title Showdown

Avenue United boss David Russell says his side have to refocus quickly after their Banner Carpets Clare Cup win.

A 2-1 victory over Newmarket Celtic saw the Ennis side crowned champions for the first time in over a decade, denying the holders their tenth consecutive title.

Thoughts now turn to Wednesday evening’s final round league game between the two sides, where a draw will be enough to see Avenue succeed Newmarket as league champions.

Russell says while their cup win is a huge moment for the club, they know the season is not over yet
