DERRY City’s journey into hell took on another twist yesterday –
when they faced a two-hour delay in Yerevan airport.
City’s players and staff encountered visa difficulties on arrival
in Armenia – after a mammoth trek across Europe via Dublin, London
and Prague.
After finally resolving the visa issues, the squad only got to their
hotel at 7am local time yesterday.
The Candystripes have no injury concerns but the temperature in Yerevan
yesterday touched 40 degrees – with City boss, John Robertson, likely
to make two changes from the team who drew last week in Derry.
