If ya know,
the history....

A great tribute, the "BEST" ever?
By any club?
 



Check out the Blue Plaque dedicated to us on the banks of the Foyle. Just up from the City Hotel if memory serves.
 



I hitch hiked round England to see the Undertones on their final UK tour. Saw them at the Manchester Hacienda, Nottingham Rock City, London Lyceum and the Top Rank (now 02) in Sheff..
 
Weren't Derry city banned because of the threats to Protestants
visiting there ground?

No, they were banned from playing at The Brandywell by the RUC because the surrounding area was a flashpoint for violence at the time.
Derry City had to play in Coleraine which is largely Protestant and so the fans were reluctant to travel there and attendances suffered. That's when they withdrew from the league.
