View Full Version : 20 quid into Dalymount
I know I'll be accused of not taking a beating but how can Bohs justify 20 quid to get into last night's game. I paid 15 at the last league game there!
Talk about encouraging a crowd to stay away. What's so good about the facilities? Away women fans still had to use the stinking portaloos for God's sake. Not good enough. I had two with me who hadn't been to a game in years and it was embarrassing to try and justify the price. I would be fairly sure they won't be back and mainly due to price because they enjoyed the game.
I take it every other team is just 15 euros. Remember you can get into a premier league game for 45 euros and a cheap Ryan air flight. Any wonder there was such a poor turnout. It's really taking the mickey.

Hasn't it been 20 all season into the Jodi, and 15 into the Connaught St?
I agree though, 20 is too steep

They divide their games into category A and B I think. A would be 20 into the jodi and B would be 15. Im guessing Sligo were category B for the league match and paid 15 whereas in your case cork would have been category A and you would pay 20. Bohs must have bumped the sligo game up to 20 for the jodi because it was a cup semi. Not the brightest idea I wouldnt think.

As the match went to exta time Bohemians would like to ask all fans to forward €6.67 to Dalymount Park to cover the exta-time.
are prices not set for these games by the FAI?

€20 is too much into any LoI game but you are only posting this because you are sore after the game me thinks.
Yes I think so
The FAI have a minimum price afaik(15 I think). I don't think they set that game at 20.

Don't worry it will be a while before Sligo need worry about a semi final again :D On foot of complaints from many Bohs fans over the 20 euro charge the board brought in the Cat A and B scheme as outlined by several posters. I think most agree that 20 euro is a lot for LOI but obviously not for Liverpool 3rd team

Yeah, "minimum" is the key word there. Heads off any complaints about, say, League Cup First Round games being E15.

Nah. I'm well used to seeing us lose all season. I'm not about to get sore about it now!

What's wrong? Did you get a ref that didn't look after you, for once?
well if thats the case then the 1st posters should apologise for being so quick to jump on bohs over that particular match and go and pay 20 quid in to see UCD v Waterford at the bowl tonight for their sins
And if its not the case maybe you should apologise for jumping the gun in seeking that apology :rolleyes:

An extra fiver for the pleasure of dealing with Bohs stewards.
Without doubt the biggest nobends ive come across stewarding in the LoI, ohh and they are sharp too, do you know that abusing Jason Mc Guineass for being a racist is actually racist in itself?
Well you live and learn.

No arguments there !most over the top clowns in LOI despite the fact there has been no trouble in Dalymount for years. maybe they heard there was a lot of unrest over the 20 euro entry fee :rolleyes:

It's not hard to see why Bohs have **** poor attendances really. I asked 3 different stewards something last night and was treated with contempt every time, once by an official at the gate.
I felt about as welcome in Dalymount as period in the bedroom last night.
Bohs can **** off, the sooner they do a Shels/Drogs/Cork the better for Irish football.

Cos he's a Dub, like, and we're a Dub team. it's the way it works. Everyone outside the M50 knows that.
* after which he offered us some heroin and a dodgy Aslan CD.

After this year it will be a long time before Bohs have to worry about Premier Division football. There might be no ground left to play in soon. Every time I hear about Bohs money problems and their fans efforts to raise money I think of Sean Connors tapping his arse pocket and laugh. Have ye wrote out his big cheque yet?
I know they might not be attracting big crowds,but 20 euro admission is just too dear. Ticket prices like that are'nt going to help their poor attendences.

i went to the champs league game, i was in the connaught stand, have to say the bogs were disgraceful, about 1500 in the place a lot for first time,, a few portaloos so i went to the old old mens bog , a wall with puke and a few cans, real eastern block effort......shouldve been cleaned up... all these things count regards getting people back,

Plllllllllllease let us know what the first Division is like ? Bohs have not had that pleasure and I don't expect we will next season either. Gets a bit tedious listening to "fans" going on about BOHS financal problems as if they were unique - not sure where you're reference RE Dalymount comes from so presume it is the usual small minded drivel spouted by losers
Now back to your attic please we have a treble to go for :D

Hmmmmm having had the pleasure of visiting the showgrounds (and Sligo in general) I can see where your high standards come from :D Of course I know the result had nothing to do with the range of Sligo moans on here, just a coincidence.

Have you never been to Dalymount before ? just find it strange that Sligo fans are complaining so much after the result it not like you are used to the Camp Nou. As I said must be coincidence ;)

Listen bohs fans cant stand the security either unfortunately not much can be done about it,there is no need to say bohs can **** off though because of that, especially when im sure you have countless other reasons to hate us!

Bet UCD fans think it was great value :D and were the stewards friendly ? And what about the toilets ? Did I mention the ref ? etc etc etc yawn. Congrats Waterford. See you in the final (whatever the entry fee).

Hadn't intended the thread to turn into an anti Bohs one!
Indeed we are not used to the Nou Camp. But that wasn't the point I was making. The point is we charge 15 euros into games, your club decides to charge 20 on Monday night which is a rip off for the quality on show at any League of Ireland game. How is Dalymount worth an extra fiver??There's no excuse, just greed as far as I can see. Your half empty ground was testament to that.

Its not fair to blame Bohs fans for their stewards.
But I will certainly be doing my best to avoid Dalymount for as long as I can in the future, 20 euro in and the ignorance of those stewards leaves a bad taste, they are as thick as pig ****, by far the worst stewards I have ever come across in the league.
Its slightly immature to fob off some genuine grievencess's with Dalymount as just "bitter" after the result, believe me we are well used to losing his season.

It'd only be greed if they were rolling in money. Bohs have obviously decided they won't be getting new fans so are trying to get the most money out of the existing ones.
