Derry manager Damian McErlain insists that they will not be taking any game lightly in the NFL 4 campaign.

If the Oak Leaf County had any notions that they would have it handy in this division, they were dispelled last weekend when they had the narrowest of margins over a battling Antrim side.

This Sunday, Derry welcome London to Owenbeg and the Ulster side are raging hot favourites to claim another two points but McErlain is certainly not getting carried away.

“It is always a difficult one, as you are not sure what is coming at you in terms of personnel,” stated McErlain.

“We had somebody watching them last week so we will try to take as much out of that. It will be about getting ourselves right. This Division is going to be tough. Teams will find form, others will hit the spot right.

“Every week will be different. No matter what people write in the papers, we know we’ve our own job to do and loads of improving to do from last week.”
