HARRY KENNY, the Bray Wanderers manager, wants his side to continue their march up the table following last night’s 1-0 win over Finn Harps.
Kenny took over from Mick Cooke in April, initially on a caretaker basis before taking permanent charge in June.

“We were disappointed with the first half of the season, but over the last few weeks we’ve got new players in and we’ve got a few results,” he told Donegal Sport Hub.
[adrotate group=”43″]“Confidence is better and people want to get on the ball now.
The first half tonight was one of our best performances of the season. If we can keep that up, we’d be confident of moving up the table. We played great football and created chances. We’re delighted.”
The win moves Bray to within seven points of Harps, with matters no pretty tight in the battle to avoid the relegation-promotion play-off spot.
Kenny said: “It narrows it even closer to Bohs – they’re the next up for us.”
Since a 2-0 loss to Derry City at The Brandywell in late May, Bray haven’t conceded in five games – a new club record.
Kenny said: “It’s very important. All the best defences have good defences and clean sheets. That was something I looked at when I got the job. Harps threw the kitchen sink at us late on. We held firm and Peter didn’t have too much to do.”
