Big Miss  E Bradley, he was better than just been used last 20mins and now leaves us short around Midfield. J Doherty too, too good not to be on the panel, but ever got a proper chance last year.

Anyone at the game? Was only following on twitter but from reports we are going to have to step it up a gear if we are looking to get promoted with stiffer tasks ahead.

Was at the game, Louth well organised and hard to break down on a tight pitch,went 5 pts up early on but let them back in it before HT,scored a goal from nial loughlin kicking for point dropped in the square louth keeper error punch fell to toner who slammed home the goal,we toiled to break them down huge sigh of relief we got the points.

Seriously tight / small pitch today, never really clicked for us, found it hard to break lines. Glad to get the 2 points, Louth made it a real battle which will stand to both teams. The 2 week break will help the Glen men.
CD and McGrogan really drove the team on from half back. Grimes for Louth is a serious footballer.

Even tighter when they took they sidelines in!

Poor performance, but its the type of game derry would have lost not so long ago.

Found it very hard to break through as you say, missed mckinless in particular in that regard. Ethan would be the other 1 you would look to for the same, he looks to be running on empty, Gallagher has got alot right so far, but he really should have given the glen lads a break

Referee was very poor, was night and day how derry and louth got there frees.

Still not sold on this idea of bringing the keeper up, lynchy looks very comfortable with it and it any event doesnt really push far enough up to become an option for a pass most times, its a halfway house and is of no benefit.
Any other keeper if have seen doing it pushes up alot further

Were poor in general, too much going sideways with both teams playing 15 inside the 45, unlike the last day were we tried to push up more. Very tight pitch, barely won a broke ball yesterday, guys go to fist a ball with no understanding from Derry players where its been fisted too. When McGuigan double marked we don't have any real options to take on the scoring, get 2/3 men injured and we be in trouble, Bench nowhere near strong enough for the best 26 in the county.

Hearing from a v reliable source that there are official transfer requests in with CB from the Downeys in Lavey to St Brigids Belfast.

Two of the Downeys were at St Brigids friendly V Ballinderry on Sunday

Current Ulster Champions, its Feb, we're unbeaten in the league... You're a hard man to please WW!

I thought those lads all lived in Gulladuff? Stranmillis to Owenbeg is a fair jaunt to be travelling. They aren't all students either no?

This still going on in Lavey? Surely it has been resolved

Last I heard 2 of them had the papers signed. Didnt hear for certain which 2 but would be a good addition to st Brigids. Would imagine the rest will follow too.

To push on to the next level the squad needs to be stronger. Derry are not pulling in from all the clubs like our neighbours. Donegal have lads from Intermediate and Junior making an impact.

[Derry Man]

Who is not on the panel that will make the squad stronger?
