Dery City will make an emotional return to the Brandywell on Friday.

Dery City make a long-awaited return to the Brandywell on Friday after 16 long months, writes Stephen Barry.

They welcome Dundalk to their revamped home, featuring the brand-new Mark Farren Stand, after a year playing 30 minutes away in Maginn Park, Co Donegal.

To celebrate, they've produced this gorgeous video featuring tributes to Farren and Ryan McBride, who passed away in 2016 and 2017 respectively and will be remembered on Friday night.
