Episode: Derry Nostalgic with Sean Friars – 2002 FAI Cup Semi-Final Special
Description: In this episode, Sean Friars joins Dee Curran to revisit the unforgettable 2002 FAI Cup Semi-Final clash against Cork City at Turner's Cross – a tie played in front of a then record 8,000-strong crowd. Sean reflects on the atmosphere, the influence of David Kelly, and the emergence of a young Kevin Deery, who stepped up in a big way. He also speaks candidly about playing without Peter Hutton, the decisive penalty award, and whether he misjudged the flight of the ball for his goal that night. A must-listen for Derry City fans who remember the magic of that cup run.
