What if say three of our lads were to dress up for the occasion, one dressed in GREEN, one in WHITE and the other in ORANGE and they were to sit side by side in the correct order the question is would they be asked to leave the ground?

outfit in the Brandywell.....

great result

Great result tonight.I have to be honest i didnt give the lads a chance.Tere wont be to many teams going to the brandywell getting points this season.I thought O grady was the man of the match.Derry had loads of ball but didnt create alot.I think Brush had 1 save to make that was in the first half.And if boco had to go down in the first half it would have been a penalty.Great result but on saying that we need a front man that can hold up the ball and bring the midfield into the play more.

Why was raf not in the squad tonight

Was wondering that too , the 2 wide men werent great tonight at all, thought Almeida done well again , Great result , we do miss Faz and Judge up front together though

raff was injured.....
great performance from all the players tonight, i thought they done the club proud, they were running after the ball for long periods and never got lazy or lost concentration. very profesional performance and i can only be proud of them

**Red&White Rover** · 12/04/2008, 12:05 AM

Ecstatic with that result given our record in The Brandywell!

**Red4Eva** · 12/04/2008, 12:32 AM

doubt i'll ever be happier with a scoreless draw. players work their b***s off and did the jersey proud. good organised defensive performance. limited derry to 1 or 2 chances, not many teams will go to the brandywell and do that this season. o'grady and almeida were brilliant but it's unfair to single out players cos everyone played well

**deecay** · 12/04/2008, 12:47 AM

Great vocal preformance tonight,the lads seemed to have appreciated it

So what did you's think of your Brandywell experience.

Looked like you's had a few 1st timers there.

It's still fairly ****e but not as ****e when we don't lose by 4!

Looking around me i'd say most of us have been there couple of times before.

**Derry** · 12/04/2008, 10:40 AM

I have to admit you fought hard for the draw. But it's your away supporters i feel sorry for, for having to watch a team that plays for a draw from the 1st minute.
For having to watch a team that doesn't want to play any sort of game. other than kick the ball away. For having to watch a team that doesn't want to take throw inns. For having to watch a team who's goalkeeper thinks it's cool to act stupid. By not knowing where he should kick the ball out from.
No Wonder the eL is having trouble trying to get people out to watch their games. Whenver a team is so negative, yet they and their supporters celebrate after it, as if they've won a cup.

Ah yes , I recall those many times our players decided to turn away from the goal whilst on the attack for fear of actually scoring a goal.

We had a game plan , something we didnt have in the past going up there and it worked , I couldn't give a **** if it wasn't entertaining for you

When someone from Derry feels sorry for me.............................
FFS ye couldn't defend a wall a few hundred years ago.

sour grapes. if you have any league title aspirations it is up to derry to beat sligo at home. if ye cant do that and expect us to leave ourselves short at the back so that ye can exploit the gaps.
this is what underdogs do and we are so proud of our manager and players because they died on their feet fighting for a draw last night.

this is one of the most stupid posts i have ever replied to on this forum.
get over it and stop whinging.

we are happy with our teams performance last night so worry about your own team

You know! A good team with real title ambition would/should have been able to overcome these tactics. I guess yer team wont be one of them. Typical nordy blames everyone one else fore their woes! 2 points drop also fell from the summit at the same time.Whos tactics worked!
