Just 5 years ago. In fairness some turn around in fortunes for Derry but they never were a division 4 side anyway.
Quote from: NotedObserver on March 24, 2024, 09:49:17 PMThe experienced heads that dropped off the panel have been missed massively over the last couple of years.
The lads can either give up or learn from this and raise their level over the years to come
Quote from: AllStar15 on March 21, 2024, 11:59:24 AMAre Ballinderry and Lavey both division 2 and Intermediate or have I picked that up wrong?

Quote from: bannside on March 07, 2024, 11:25:33 AMDon't see EL causing any problems he has settled in well and hopefully will lead a forward line that I feel was far too individual in the past. He's popular with players and management and might just add that extra % in terms of belief.
Got a serious run of away fixtures to all the top sides in the second half of the league, but tbh, whatever way it pans out, round here there's only one monkey that needs to be eliminated, and that's the only priority.

The reason so many lads get involved in stuff now, is half them know they not get buried.I think if they bring in red cards for grabbing players by the throat,and yellow card every man coming Into a melee a start, whole f**king team or not. Ref not stand back and let it escalate. They would been more involved to break it up years ago.I was at Ice hockey other nite and the refs were in the players face the minute they squared off.Years ago it was just a beating session.

Unlike many Derry teams of the past they also have the resilience and determination to come back immediately after conceding a score and score themselves.
Now that they have set high standards for themselves I feel that they lack a consistent long distance free taker. Presumably management is aware of this and it is difficult to see any of the current starters successfully taking over this role. Over the past few years Niall Loughlin,Conor Doherty and now Conor Glass have been tried in this role with varying degrees of success.Perhaps posters have some ideas on how this area of the team's development could be improved. Perhaps Odhran Lynch and Ciaran McFaul are secretly training g to improve their long distance accuracy!!
Looking forward to another good performance against Tyrone. It would be nice if Eoin McEvoy and his clubmate, Cormac Murphy, would both be available to start and that Oisin McWilliams and Enda Downey would be able to take their places on the bench.
Not sure why the new thread?
What's the story with all the Downey's? All now playing football in Antrim, none seem to have kicked on at all? Are they dogged with injuries?
