Cameron McJannet has hailed Ruaidhri Higgins' influence on Derry City after the Candystripes boss decided not to act on interest from Barnsley.
Higgins was linked with a move after he held talks with the League One club, but the 38-year-old insisted yesterday that he is "really committed" to City as Barnsley appointed Neill Collins.
Higgins managed Derry for the 100th time in last Friday's 1-1 draw with Shelbourne and will be in the dugout for tonight's north-west derby clash with Sligo Rovers.
