Attendances 2025

[MoydowMonty]

And at least 100 of those were Longford Town. Was disappointed in those Shamrock "ultras". They got totally outsang the whole night barely heard a peep out of them

[outspoken]

Around 150 LTFC fans, and yes, the only ones who created any noise. Tallaght is some ground but its souless.

[sbgawa]

Tbf I would have said closer to 200 LTFC fans but the stadium was dead because Rovers were playing a half team.at best and the game was over before it began. With 10 mins ro go the first chants from the rovers support started as we realised we didn't want extra timw.

[2 Year Contract]

“The game was over before it began” is a bit of a stretch considering Rovers lead the game for just 17 minutes before Longford equalised and rovers only won the game in the 84th minute through their second penalty of the game

I watched it and Longford played very well and it most definitely was not a cert that Rovers would have won only for the second penalty. Extra time you expect Longord would have ran out of steam

Felt sorry for the lad who gave away the second penalty, don't know what he was thinking

[sbgawa]

Longford offered almost nothing tbf and I'm a nervous ninny but wasn't worried at all. Once we introduced the 4 subs it was just a matter of time. People all around me were chating away all through the match and not really engaged..

[ForeForeToo]

Do Longford get a spot in the cup draw ahead of Rovers despite the result because their fans some noise?

[MoydowMonty]

the game was over before it began.
I suppose that's why Bradley brought on a quadruple sub of all the big names 60 mins into the match so..

And I'm not saying Longford deserved to win but when you're in our position you'd be daft to go all out gung-ho against the strongest team in the country and not have a game plan. Played very will relatively considering our position and it took 2 penalties for ye to finally settle it. But for that the game was destined for ET. Different story considering we all thought the game was gonna be a massacre

And I wouldn't say ye pulled up any trees with how ye played yourselves, even with the big names brought on.

[sbgawa]

Im not having a go at Longford you came and competed and brought a decent support but Bradley bringing on 4 and then a fifth Mandroiu after 60 and 65 mins was exactly what i meant by the game being over before it began.

We were always going to start with a second 11 and if needed empty the bench to win which is exactly what happened, we hit the bar/post 2 if not 3 times and had clearences off the line AS WE SHOULD against 1st Division oposition.
That being said with 15 minutes to go we were a mistake away from being in deep doodoo but the quality off the bench did what was expected , i appreciate it was a Pen but people make mistakes when they are under pressure and thats what happened

Longford literally had the two best chances after going 1-0 down, deserved the equalizer. Yes Rovers dominated ball and territory but Longford keeper didn't make any spectacular saves.

Tallaght has plenty of soul when we're playing a team of consequence. That wasn't the case on Sunday. Hope you enjoyed your trip to the Premier Division League Leaders.

I've been to Tallaght for plenty of games of consequence, it's a library

The place was absolutely hopping last Thursday

[brendy_�ire]

The place was absolutely hopping last Thursday


I think it does suffer from a lack of atmosphere. Maybe it's partially to do with the layout of the stands, the open corners, but it's not just the ground that causes it. It's also the location, in a new build area, well away from the city centre and not the easiest to get to (unelss by car), beside a dual carriageway, and there aren't any pubs too close to it either (Maldron is a sad place).
It's not a unique thing to Tallaght, mind. Espanyol's RCDE and Atlético's Metropolitano, and Estadio Algarve (and loads more new grounds) all suffer from the same thing.

There's always existed a feeling amongst some Derry fans that we should move out of the Brandywell. And I'd be all for it if the location was within walking distance of the city centre, but the only place suggested so far is at the edge of town, where the new academy is going. Yes, we could have a nice big car park, but we'd lose a lot of the match day experience.

Exact same with Dundalk. A move away from Oriel to a new stadium would be great but nowhere is possible within walking distance of town

I've often been in a pub on a Friday before Oriel, and you could get chatting to people not from the area and they would walk up to Oriel when they heard was a game on. If we moved out of town things like that are done

Id say most of our fans, especially shedside walk to Oriel from home or pubs

Its a pity with Tallaght considering theres a luas line close to hand bringing fans to the city centre but the distance doenst help imo.

No. Soz babes.

Treaty v Dundalk is down as 975 on FAI Connect, I wasn't there but on clips from LOITV the main stand looked half full at best, must be a big crowd on camera side to have made up that figure, as looked to be 100 max DFC fans behind goal.

That fig of 975 looked a bit ambitious to me.
