Congratulations and well done.

The balance of power in the North West is surely shifting now with Jim Roddy leaving Derry and Harps on a roll.

No more than our last on-field promotion, ye're last elevation was an unmitigated disaster (I think even Harps die hards will agree) so the challenge will be to compete and I'd say ye're up for it.

Keep telling yourself that. Even in the midst of our ****eness, we still beat them. As dcfcsteve pointed out, they have one of the worst records for a derby, only a handful of wins against us.

We may well be clouded with uncertainty at the minute but we will overcome it and we will be fired up for a title challenge next season.

Well it would be a great way to launch the League either that or Harps/Sligo or Derry/Sligo as the opening fixture. Speaking personally our club having had to visit the Brandywell 4 times this past season, we're looking forward to only playing ye once up there in the League this coming year.

It would be an excellent idea to have the First round of the League a series of Derbies.
