I was dissapointed that the cow bell wasnt there today
One thing that did give me a giggle at half time, and i wished i had a camera handy was when the young fellas was putting up the We are Patricks flag. They was standing in front of the letters A and T so it looked like the flag said something else.
The stand looked full enough from where i was so my guesstimate would have been 700+Comment

Yeah, i thought the stand was fairly full itself. But i recorded the match and it looked awful on tv. The FAI need to sort this sh!t out. 1pm kick offs on a Saturday just doesn't work. Sure i only got there myself, just before the half hour mark, i missed Ryan Guy's goal.
Plus, this is affecting our revenue. RTE pay Pat's three grand, we'd have made around about another ten grand from ticket sales off this match if it was played last night.Comment

About 2100 id say at the Rovers Mons cup game. Very poor number of travelling fans, 30 odd.Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!Comment

I dont think the time has that much to do with it,didnt help though. No concessions would play a big part in it.
If you are going to support a team then you would attend their games no matter what time it is played at unless you cant because of other commitments. Was that many involved with junior football that it took a few hundred out of the attendance? Has a few hundred Pats fans gone over to the uk for the weekend to watch the football ?
Im not knocking Pats fans as it would more than likely have been the attendance if it had been at Morton as well.
Would have many OAP's not gone because they would have had to pay full fare? or kids because they didnt have an adult with them?Comment

The time was definitely an issue. Sure Pete said it himself, we had no schoolboy teams there today (apart from one???), because.....listen to this FAI, they were actually playing football at that time.
Then you have the supporters who play matches and also the ones who have kids playing at that time. As i said before, the fact that we had about 500 more for a match against Belgrove in the previous match said it all,
And i'm genuinely not being funny about your own attendence, but Belgrove literally brought about half the number that came to support Fingal today.
Both of our clubs have lost money because of the kick off time today.Comment

No 'away' teams for the league cup final. Its the FAIs party were just turning up to play a game! The Jinks stand has been fitted with all new seating tho (and credit to the people who done it and dont go around looking for any praise for it either, really makes me proud of the community club we have in Sligo).
The FAI have decided that Mons fans will get 3 blocks of the main stand, seats about 5/600 id say.Last edited by redobit; 19/09/2010, 1:09 AM.Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
