I know it was winter and all those things, but it’s built from there. I think there were something like 200-odd at our Down game at the start of the year. The hype machine has been in full swing for the previous fortnight, but Rogers insists it hasn’t been something the players have actively avoided, but rather watched with a detached curiosity. Only a couple of seasons ago when Derry found themselves in Division Four, they were playing games in front of around 200 spectators some days. Sunday brought the biggest crowd to watch a Derry game since 1993. “Every game’s different and brings different challenges, and there’s always things to work on, but spending time together is probably the biggest factor.” We were training hard in Derry but it wasn’t maybe as consistent as it could have been, and we’re trying to do that now on a more consistent basis. “Yeah, but quality of training has changed too, the demand of the standard that you need has been improved,” says Rogers.
