Drogheda Utd v Derry City Match Thread
KO on Friday is at 7:45. I am unsure of the ticket issues as I have missed any posts regarding it but if anyone has the link feel free to post it here.
As usual, all predictions, news and reaction in the build up and after the game, post here.
Can't make the match? It is live on LOITV, BBC Radio Foyle and Drive 105.

Re: Drogheda Utd v Derry City Match Thread
We are 6 games without a win in Drogheda. Likely to be missing Hoban. Doherty and Dummigan back in the squad assuming no late knocks.
Another tough game should be expected. Recent history suggests the 3 points will be hard to come by.

Re: Drogheda Utd v Derry City Match Thread
Important to get the 3pts, and play half decently too, to prove that last week's easy victory wasn't just because it was a poor Dundalk side.
A lot of people seemed to get very excited after that game, but one swallow doesn't make a summer.

Same side that beat Dundalk. Fats back on the bench. Dummigan out of the squad.

Didn't play in the 2nd half. Got what we deserved. Now 1 win in last 5 games.
Hard to take after being in total control.
