I know it says €59 is the price, but allowing for Western Union fees, post & packing, etc, you're looking at the guts of €150 all in (unless they've dropped their prices since a couple of years ago). Mine came without drumsticks but they're only a tenner a pair in any musical instruments shop.

We have 3 snare drums and a bass drum (BPSC). We usually buy the snare drums from a local store but the bass drum(s) are usually 2nd hand. You should maybe contact any organisations/bands in Cork and ask have they anything. We got a few from the AOH in the past (For next to nothing).
We got a good drum very cheaply on eBay. Drums are very expensive to buy seperately when new, but can often be gotten hold of for a song second hand.

When we go north for the Setanta cup you could try scabbing a few off a kick the pope band.

Nah, although a few lippy Corkies nearly acquired some distinctive drum-based headgear last year.
The drum is a bit of a sore subject round these parts, ever since Breifne managed to break the strap somehow :p

You must be blind and deaf, I banged the drum so hard it nearly broke. There was approx 40 Dubs for that game, I reckon we made more noise than the whole Longford crowd which seemed to be made up of school kids who spent more time chasing each other around than watching the game. ;)

Come off it there was never 40, about ten I'd say including one lad in front of me banging his drum to mighty fine effect, the only one chanting at all as far as I could see 'CITY! CITY! BANG BANG', im only slaggin lads before ye get too offended..Agreed about the kids though, that's what happens when kids are free, that game was particularly bad, I couldn't stand any more background chit chat of who was shifting who :)

I was in Flancare Park twice last season, for the League Cup clash game, and the first league game, the 0-0 draw.
There were a few Dublin City supporters at both games (approx 15 - 20). There were more at the second game, derek and sheridan included, i couldn't make it unfortunately.

That's hilarious!!
You are actually able to compile a list of the names of all the fans who went to an away game! :rolleyes: :D
And how do the club photographer, injured players and the chairman count as supporters?!! :confused:
Poor old Dublin City!

Fair enough there was more than ten then, I wasn't counting players and officials, or the Seery family..I wasn't being anti DC I just genuinely didnt reckon there was anywhere near 40 there
Dont forget the subsitutes bench, ye had at least 10 people there if you include the subs and the coaching staff:D

Yeah, you would have thought that would be the giveaway, but obviously concepts like self-deprecation, humour and basic reading comprehension haven't been rolled out country-wide yet.
