A major fire has completely destroyed part of Institute Football club’s Riverside grounds in Drumahoe.
Changing rooms and a supporters room at the rear of the grounds were badly damaged last night in what is believed to be an arson attack.
It's the second time in a year Institute’s home at Riverside Stadium has been damaged.
Last August the grounds were badly flooded - and the team haven't been able to play there since.
Institute’s Vice Chairman Andrew Russell says it's a devastating blow:
