With a new contract at Dundalk in the bag, goalkeeper Gary Rogers will be adding to his league tally of 563 appearances. The great Al Finucane's tally of 634 looked untouchable, but Rogers is two more uninterrupted seasons away from getting there. His father, Dessie, was present at Oriel Park last Friday night as Rogers collected his fifth Premier Division medal. "I find it more difficult to watch somebody I'm coaching rather than go out there and play myself," he continues. "Last week was the 23rd clean sheet, which matches Alan O'Neill's record for clean sheets in a season," he asserts.
