PSNI… serious questions need to be asked and answered. Who decided to march visiting Bulgarian fans, who had spent a week insulting, mocking and intimidating Derry people online, down Bishop Street past the Oakgrove with women and children present? Then stand by while CSKA fans attacked terrified families and threw glass bottles❓
Inside the ground… madness. It's the first time I've ever genuinely felt unsafe in 21 years of attending games at the Brandywell. Fair play to the stewards, who did their best in the circumstances. Serious questions need to be asked about security at the Brandywell and how it's resourced - this has been coming for some time now. Having to jump onto the pitch for your own safety should never happen at a football match..
The routing decision by the PSNI on Bishop Street was reckless. Awful and embarrassing, though sadly not surprising from the police here. Whoever made that call needs to be held accountable, and it's a disgrace that all of this overshadows a Derry City side who outplayed CSKA and were really unlucky tonight! An amazing atmosphere created by the Derry fans. Proud of each and every one of the players too… some shift put in! On to Croatia! 🔴⚪️
Unpopular take. The riots last night had little to do with a stabbing or immigration.
It is mainly about loyalist paramilitaries stamping their authority.

Did ya hear Richie Sadlier tonight ?
Brilliant
He hit the nail on the head
Tis rare enough I’d record something off the telly but god, he was good
@yo People just want to go home and be with their families and pets. Not socialising with people they already spend too much time with and have to be guarded with.
How would you vote if a border poll were held tomorrow?
As Donald Trump appeared to suggest that Northern Ireland should 'merge' with the Republic, we want to know how you would vote in a future border poll

I wish I had £23,000 for every time someone has said “potato” in a cod-Oirish accent in the many workplaces I have been in. I could buy fish suppers for all my friends and family for many years.
