Dessie Farrell’s men became the first side to get the better of Derry in 2024 but Mickey Harte's men remain top of the table with two games of a fascinating league campaign remaining. And central to Derry’s good form has been the backing of an ever growing Oak Leaf fan base who turned out in force again on Saturday. As always, the Journal’s George Sweeney was there to capture it on camera so why not check out a few of the faces and memories from another exciting evening in Celtic Park.
