RIVALS Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers have both had two matches called off because of international call-ups.
Bohs were due to play two Dublin derbies in the space of four days, hosting Shels on Bank Holiday Monday before travelling to Tallaght to take on Rovers next Friday.
But defender Michael Lilander and midfielder Martin Miller have been included in the Estonian squad for matches against Switzerland and the Faroe Islands.
Neither player is a regular for gaffer Alan Reynolds.
But the Gypsies have opted to exercise their right to postpone the matches with two players called up.
Rovers have done likewise with midfielder Markus Poom also called up by Estonia for those friendlies and Roberto Lopes selected for Cape Verde’s World Cup qualifiers against Cameroon and Libya.
As a result, Virgin Media will show the match between St Pat’s and Dundalk at Richmond Park on Monday which will now kick off at 5.15pm.
That will see Jon Daly return to Inchicore just four weeks after his sacking, with his replacement Stephen Kenny managing against his son Eoin.
And it will be an intriguing clash with the two sides marooned in the bottom half of the table.
The match between Derry City and Waterford on the same day has also been pushed back to a 6pm kick-off.
