Derry keep feet on the ground

Derry chief executive Jim Roddy is adamant tonight’s glamorous UEFA Cup clash with Paris St Germain will be just “a day’s work” for the eircom League club.

An ambassador’s reception may not be part of the average working day for City’s players and manager Stephen Kenny, but they have otherwise been fully focused on the job in hand and there has been no chance for commemorative trips down the Champs Elysees or up the Eiffel Tower to help the occasion sink in.
