Great game despite the 0-0 scoreline at the Cross.
The largest away following of the season, fair play to Rovers, they sang throughout. Not many goalcsoring opportunities but a keenly fought contest
Rovers closed us down all over the park, we had a few chances near the end with Billy Dennehys the best when he fluffed a 1 on 1 with their keeper.
Biggest laugh of the night was for the official attendance announcement of 3691, there was easily between 4 and 5000.
No question ye deserved the win, we were shocking and created zippity in front of goal - one shot on target all game I think, a scuffed effort from Faherty when he was clear through on goal.Quote:

Still, I suppose it is only nit-picking. We are in serious need of a striker, and play the top 4 in our next four games - ouch
Played well enough in the second half. First half was pretty dire really.Quote:

Handy enough win for us last night I thought, with the exception of Quigley's shot which was a great save by Murphy he didnt have much too do last night. Still cant believe Crowe missed that header for 6 years out. Good home crowd there last night more than when we were there in June and also nice to see a club shop opened beside the ground fair play
Derry looked very solid at the back and very quick and slick going forward. Just glanced over the game again this morning and 7 or 8 nil would have been a fair result to be honest.Quote:

Sligo booed off at the end.
Good display from City and Sligo would need to improve drastiacally to stop this current rot.
So sue me then Stu.Quote:
