well isn't that a big bag of sh!te :(

Agreed.
It's because if we need a reply against Shels in the Cup, it has to be on the Saturday, since Shels are playing on Wednesday in the CL.

Reckon it would have been switched regardless though, the Club's trying out Thursday nights to see if it'll raise attendences.
IMO, Saturday's the better day though.

Suits me nicely!!! :D

Actually, just heard that if our match with Shels ends in a draw, the Cork game scheduled for Thursday will be postponed to allow us to play our Cup game on the Saturday.

Thursday nights suit the Derry public since none of them have to get up for work on the Friday! :D :D :p ;)

Thursday probably suits me but IMO clubs should be made nominate a day & not be allowed to change it just cos they feel like it.

Fair enough if Derry may need date for replay but the l;eague have to become more serious & not allow clubs change dates mid season on a whim.
