on the Radio Last night Tony Doherty was class nearly coming through the radio everytime ye scored and saying how this victory was for all el supporters who stick with their clubs thru thick and thin. Saw all the goals on TV3 Class and what supporters just shows how much more special local pride is.

Well done on a great result!

**ericdred** · 11/08/2006, 9:56 AM

amazing, bloody amazing,

only wish i was able to get to the return leg, i hope you get another big team (!!) in the next round and have to play it in lansdowne road, i for one as a shels fan will be there singing along with all ye lads, and there will be thousands of LoI fans there, now all thats left is for the drogs to over come that one goal.

come deery!! and drogs its your turn to make to world sit up and take notice of this "the poor relation", to that imported english s**t, maybe just maybe it will bring in money to the league, and then we can go further and further, we are closer now to the big boys than we have ever been, since the league began.

Yeah Fair play to Derry. Setanta's coverage was good. derry fans were brilliant. Scots were stunned. kenny was almost in tears. Great for Irish Football.

Congrats to Derry City, fantastic performance from both the players and the massive support that made the trip to Fir park. I listened to most of the game in the car and nearly went through the roof when those goals were going in.

SUPERGRETNA YOUR HAVING A LARRRRFFFF.

It think Derry will have to play in Lansdowne no matter who they draw. Should wish for easiest draw for chance to progress.

Well done Derry. How many Derry fans were at the game? Is the next stage the group stage already?

**Dee75** · 11/08/2006, 2:45 PM

No one more round then the group stages. There were between 2-3000 Derry fans at the game

Proud to be a Derry Fan

**Stevo Da Gull** · 11/08/2006, 11:46 PM

Congratulations lads and ye deserve it!! Ordered in the extra Setanta channel's for a month just to see the game and it's the best value for money ever just to see that game. Derry fans were there usual fantstic selves, 90 minutes football and 2 hours of non-stop... concert?
I was jumping around my house like a lunatic screaming with joy

my family will never look a tme the same way again

**ccfcgirl** · 12/08/2006, 1:30 PM

Brilliant result for Derry .Voice nearly went from screaming ye got so many goals.

**depor** · 13/08/2006, 1:26 AM

congrats!

Derry are a class act, the manager, players and especially the fans. playing some fantastic football.

**Gaillimh Al** · 14/08/2006, 4:34 PM

Great performance. Played really good football. Watched it in Gran Canaria and must have been the only Irish man in the bar. All the British football fans couldn't believe what they were seeing. Great to see a Galway man involved as well. Doing us proud Fordie. Might tempt him back home if we get up to the Premier but I doubt it.
Best of luck in the next round. Hope ye get e good draw and make the group stages.

And, for the record, a sizeable majority of Harpers wish Derry well and were cheering them on. A proud night for the League.

Well done Derry
