First 'home' match in Maginn Park on 5th March against Limerick

NIMAN · 02-01-2017 04:14PM

I'll be there!

Penfailed · 24-02-2017 11:15PM

Derry beat Bohemians 4 - 1 this evening

Next up, Limerick (who beat Sligo 5 - 1 this evening).

Working at the election this Friday so hoping there's no recounts or any holdups and I can get away in time. Fridays just aren't the same during the pre-season.

What happened to the Sunday afternoon game idea? Was it a non-runner?

Penfailed · 04-03-2017 09:17PM

Well that was a bit of a disaster! Lights out after 25mins. Match rescheduled for Tuesday 21st.

Still a runner. If you check the fixtures list you can see we switch to Sunday afternoons in July. http://www.derrycityfc.net/page/2017-fixtures-results.html

Who knows if they'll stick to that plan though...

Three wins on the trot

Second in the table with a game in hand - great start to the season

NIMAN · 14-03-2017 12:27AM

Great night tonight in buncrana.

Stephen Kenny, your boys took a hell of a beating.

Penfailed · 14-03-2017 09:01PM

I'll get to my first match on Saturday. Bought my ticket this evening. I was told that the kids (eight and ten) are free but I'd assume I'd need to be in early for them to get a decent view?

Penfailed · 18-03-2017 06:34PM

That was enjoyable

4-0

The two boys are buzzing.

RIP Ryan McBride

Shocking news

A tragic loss. RIP Ryan

It's going to be emotional in Maginn Park on Friday night. I'm unable to attend

Penfailed · 31-03-2017 10:40PM

I was following the match on the radio and then online...sounded like Derry were all over Bray. Bit of a disaster to get beaten 3:2 with Bray scoring with the last kick of the game

NIMAN · 01-04-2017 04:58AM

Its a funny old game as someone once said.

Sometimes you lose games you should win and vice versa.

But there are a lot of positives to take out of this young Derry team.

Good to see another big crowd at Maginn. I think Derry City has gained quite a few Donegal/Inishowen based supporters this season.....will be interesting to see who they cheer for when Derry play Harps soon!

Penfailed · 11-04-2017 07:16PM

I tried to get a ticket for the Finn Harps match this evening...sold out!

Penfailed · 15-04-2017 10:51AM

Oh dear...

NIMAN · 16-04-2017 09:35PM

A shockingly poor performance by Derry v Harps. Worst I have seen them play under this current manager.

But fair play to Harps, they did what they had to do to win. Some decent players, and definitely a more complete team than they have had in recent years.

Penfailed · 28-04-2017 10:25PM

I was sure they'd come away with a victory from Pats

They did well to draw even twice. It sounded like a great game (I was listening on Foyle).

NIMAN · 05-06-2017 08:17PM

So at the mid season break, 3rd position.

Very encouraging considering what the club and the players have had to go through this season.

Onwards and upwards.

Beaten 6-1 by FC Midtjylland in the first leg

NIMAN · 29-06-2017 09:06PM

Plenty of effort but they were a different class to us.

They'll score 4 or 5 next week too.

You called it...10-2 on aggregate. Outclassed.

I've a ticket for tomorrow afternoon against Limerick.

Penfailed · 30-07-2017 09:30PM

Enjoyable

3-0 to City. The ref was a bit too handy with the yellow card a couple of times but great result.

Penfailed · 04-08-2017 10:10PM

2-0 against Shamrock Rovers! Great stuff. I've just watched the two goals on Twitter - class long range shot from McNamee!

NIMAN · 04-08-2017 10:15PM

A big 3 pts.

Watched it live on Eir Sports, did you know it was on?

Kenny Shiels doing a great job this year.

Is that a Sky channel? Don't have Sky. I was listening on Radio Foyle

NIMAN · 05-08-2017 06:20PM

I don't have sky myself!

I think it used to be setanta.

Ah, okay. I don't have that either. Eir's Twitter feed was putting up highlights shortly after they happened

NIMAN · 05-08-2017 08:47PM

I don't have setanta either!

I watched it via iptv
