“This match with Galway is Derry’s biggest game for two decades and we should be doing everything possible to make this match is as accessible to fans as possible.'
Translink has issued a statement after Derry GAA fans' vented their frustration that a train heading to the All-Ireland semi-final clash on Saturday will leave from Belfast and not Derry.
In his petition message on Change.org, Mr Bradley said: "It makes no sense to offer a special train to Derry supporters that goes nowhere near County Derry and which stops in Lurgan, Portadown and Newry instead. However, Translink said they were offering "a number of transport options" to fans wishing to travel to Dublin this week. In a statement, a spokesperson said: “There are coach specials leaving Foyle Street in Derry~Londonderry, Dungiven and Maghera to Dublin.
SDLP Foyle MLA Sinéad McLaughlin said she has contacted Translink and asked them to extend the service to Derry.
