Wexford FC vs Cobh Ramblers

What to Expect

Wexford FC host Cobh Ramblers at Ferrycarrig Park on Friday 18 September 2026, with a 7:45pm kick-off. It is a League of Ireland First Division fixture and one of the club’s closing home dates of the 2026 season, coming a week after the visit of Finn Harps and ahead of home games against Longford Town on 2 October and UCD AFC on 16 October. Cobh Ramblers travel from the harbour town in east Cork, a club Wexford have met regularly since both settled into the second tier, and the two sides had already played earlier in the campaign.

Friday night football at Ferrycarrig Park is a low key, close up way to watch senior league football. The ground is small enough that you hear the coaching from the technical areas and the ball off the boot, and the stand runs along one side of the pitch with terracing behind. Late September fixtures in the First Division tend to carry weight in the promotion play off and relegation picture, so both squads will arrive with something riding on the result. Team news, ticket arrangements and any change to the kick off time are posted by the club in the days beforehand, and the league does move fixtures for television or scheduling reasons, so it is worth a quick check before travelling.
