Uefa Cup Latest: C'mon Derry & Drogs

**joema** · 27/07/2006, 9:39 PM

Brilliant results - a total disgrace that one of these games wasnt on TV. I listened on the radio - atmosphere at Dayler sounded unreal

That's why. RTE are only interested in the CL.

But think of the quality programming that would have to have been sacrificed. And also it takes week to drive the poor old OB truck unit up from cork to the land far far away in Dublin! Hard work for RTE like.

Mind you, it didn't stop Adrian Eames, getting from Cork to Derry in 24 hours.

Drogs were awfully direct tonight and created little if anything from play, but their perseverance and their defending were exemplary, as was their hardcore support. Didn't begin to match HJK technically until Zayed was introduced but for sheer persistence deserved the win (even if the foul on Barrett which induced the second penalty looked to have taken place outside the box.)

Yeah defo,horrible long ball stuff that didn't even work and it was outside the box,it happened right in front of me,but a win's a win so good luck next round

**ger121** · 27/07/2006, 10:43 PM

Played 11 Won 7 Drawn 2 Lost 2 For 14 Against 7

Not bad so far and starting to see some consistency year after year can only bode well for the future.
