Former Limerick FC boss Tommy Lynch has rejoined the eircom League First Division side as first team coach until the end of the season.

Under-21 assistant coach Eoin Killackey is also helping out with the first team after the departure of former manager Noel O'Connor and assistant manager Aidan Ryan last month.

Lynch, a former Waterford United manager, will be in the dugout for tonight's game against top of the table Dundalk at Hogan Park.

Drew, who took on the role as interim manager after O'Connor's departure, wants to have a full backroom staff installed before a new manager is appointed.

He said: 'Tommy and Eoin will be joint coaches of the first team as I want to build up a backroom staff. I also intend to appoint a goalkeeping coach as I want everything in place when we appoint a new manager.

'We have no injury worries or suspensions for this evening's game and we will be looking to build on our last two results,' he added.
