How can DC play on Sunday when probably only returning home on Friday after a 6000km flight and having lost a night's sleep?

They just have to.
As Rovers found out last season, the more successful you are in Europe, the more congested your fixtures become.
They just have to fit that league game in, considering the ucd away was already rearranged. If we had 2 postponed, we'd end up getting very congested later.

Thanks. I understood that but thought, incorrectly, there was a 3 night gap.

The game v Drogs will be a tough one.
As you hinted at, the players will be very tired after their lengthy trip and tie, and we can't afford to be dropping league points either.

Tonight's results have gone our way, Shels and Rovers drew as did St Pats and Bohs.

A scrappy 1 v 0 would do. Just get the 3 points

Re: Derry City v Drogheda United Match Thread
I assume that more of the bench players will be starting Sunday and allow others to recuperate. To maintain a league challenge we must ensure that we don’t loose the game. That said the crowd there would need to generate an atmosphere to boost that chance. I can’t be there but I’ll be in Tallaght where they’ll need every voice available to get through to next round. Numbers going will likely fall well short of what they would have mustered for the game if it was in Windsor, to build a hair raising atmosphere to help them out.

There can be no slip ups on sunday- any kind of win as long as we win.

100%. It's a bit hard as a fan to switch from the excitement of European football to bread and butter league fixtures. But if we're not winning games like these, then we won't experience the joy of Europe again next season.
3pts are essential, especially after everyone else has slipped up.

Win our two games in hand and we'll be just two points behind rovers. Any sort of win today.

Re: Derry City v Drogheda United Match Thread
McMullan is a game changer. And the other A-team players helped turn a tough watch into a convincing win in the end.
McGonigle is streets ahead of Mullan who looks way out of his depth, even at this level.
O'Reiley had a decent game tonight.
And Maher is easily best keeper in the league.

A great win but can we cease with the wretched music after a goal
