Speaking about the week-long Austria training camp on Saturday, manager Kieran McKenna said: "Really looking forward to that. The first time the club will have travelled away for a few years. The first time for me going out of the country with this group.
"We’re looking forward to that, it should be a really good training week and we’ll finish it off with a couple of fixtures that the club will confirm in due course and that will be a good week for us.”
