Not a bad result for Derry at all,tie still alive.Well done.
Well done Derry. Still have a sniff... Congrats to Linfield too. Already more points than all the LOI teams put together:-/
4-2 to Trabzonspor at FT. Considering we shot ourselves in the foot several times, pretty stirring effort. Really couldn't see us getting one, never mind two away goals. They'll have too much for us next week too but there's hope at least.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
Looking at the results tonight of the teams from Countries ranked below us and we really seem to be going backwards...
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
Was shocked to switch on my phone to see 4-2 staring back at me with an hour gone, I was expecting 2-0 Trabzonspor! Saw the last half hour or so and Derry looked the fresher, more composed side but didn't seem to trouble the Turks too much. One thing I was impressed by was Doherty passing the ball to his full backs from a kick off. It's such an obvious way of creating space on the pitch and most continental teams do it, but for some reason most sides here hoof it as a matter of course.
Raging I missed the game due to work this evening as it sounded like it was a really good game. Caught the goals here though:
Disappointing to concede them so softly as Derry played very well otherwise, by the sounds of things. The two away goals ensure a really slim chance of progression, although that's being very hopeful of a major upset. At least I'll be able to follow the second leg properly as my shifts change to days from next week on.
Holy feck..just seeing the goals now. Doherty must be feeling the weight of the world on him at the minute. That's an absolute horror show from supposedly one of the best keepers in the league. If I made those mistakes myself I'd give up.

Many Derry fans travel to Turkey?
Special Well Done to Linfield on last Nights great result, any win away from home in Europe these days is a great one. Even though Linfield fans class themselves as British I think last nights result is a great result for all football in the Whole of ireland. Will be cheering them on next week even though others won't.
Decent result from Derry very very sloppy goals to give away at critical times, thought McBride was excellent when he came on and shored up the Midfield. Shane McEleney and Doherty didnt have great games but heres hoping we punish them the way they punished us from mistakes last night. Well done to Davy McDaid ( who Ive been very critical of ) for an outstanding performance leading the line last night worked tirelessly up front on his own. Hopefully have Deery and Patterson back for next weeks game.
Jeepers.. Derry conceded some bad goals but the two they got were not textbook defending either.
#NeverStopNotGivingUp
Rovers face TNS/Legia Warsaw if we get through*
*We're not getting through.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Great result for Linfield. Good stuff.
Hard luck Derry. Doherty to blame, I'm afraid.
Best of luck to everyone next week. The draw wasn't kind this year (except to Pats).
