What they say
Ruaidhrí Higgins (Derry City manager): “It has been very difficult. There's no point in saying otherwise, it has been. It's just very strange when you have so much hope and expectation and then it's gone and the realisation of that. You still have to get your head around it quickly and prepare and be as professional as you can and I think we've done that.”
Damien Duff (Shelbourne manager): “All I can speak for is myself, at the minute I am as cool and as calm, believe it or not, as I have ever been. The players have seen it, they have been playing and training at a top level for weeks now. The most nervous person in my life now is my wife, she's a bundle of nervous energy walking around the house, keeps wanting to talk about permutations and what if this happens, whereas I don't want to talk about football at all. There's absolutely no nerves. Should there be? I don't know but we are calm, very focused and we will be highly motivated on Friday night.”
