Oh right.....I don't think it counts as an urban legend if you just think it up as you type..

As opposed to the "legends" which have got their first airings in this thread, the11plus literacy/illiteracy (you have grasped the difference at this stage micls through the assistance of your internet mates?) legend is a hoary old fable usually propagated by the likes of L`Derry MLA Gregory Campbell and Sammmy Wilson to argue for the retention of the 11 plus system.

Any evidence for this Dodge? I would expecy that they would still have the begging bowls out like everyone else who has run Derry close to extinction over the years.
Are there organisational, fundraising and general business acumen among Derry fans that other clubs could tap into? We did have a Derry fan as CEO in Bohs for a short time who seemed like a nice man, is that who your referring to?

We could always try the Pats model and tie in the future of our club with the development of a skyscraper in Chicago which will only ever exist rendered in popsicle sticks and glass beads.
Here`s a quote from an architectural blog in the US
"Instead of being a beacon of luxury, the unbuilt sight is starting to become a constant reminder of the economic downturn"
