(This is a copy of a note on the Dubs site)
The weather was crap, the rain pelted down and the wind blew a gale. So it was no surprise that the football wasn't great but as I had said before "A point is a point is a point" and away from home I can readily except it. Both sides had some chances to steal the points but a draw was about the right result.
Know then, the support or should I say the lack of it was shocking. I'm not going to go into numbers but we could be counted on one hand. We need to try harder.
All that said, I would like to thank and express my gratitude to about half a dozen or so Drogs teenage fans who because of the shall we say lack of love for Dundalk FC helped us out magnificently. I played the big drum and because of my meagre efforts two of them ran home and got a couple snare drums and proceeded to lead the chants for the Dubs which I would have to say listening to them we could learn a lot about how to support a team. Anyway I have some new songs(new to us anyway) that I will share at the next game.
Thanks again Drogs young lads.
