2011 attendances

He's always got a fair bit of abuse from us..not racism though..just gets stick because he usually does quite well against us and he's turned us down on numerous ocasisons

Just to get this out of the way, I absolutely condemn racism but there is sometimes an alarming tendency to look for a racist element where none exists. I remember a few years back when Stoke were in the Championship, the pundits on a highlights show were laying into the Stoke fans for chanting "you black *******" at Michael Ricketts, when they were, in fact, shouting "you fat *******", which stemmed from his brief time as our resident-pie-disposal-man-come striker.

Going off topic, but whats the deal with the abuse Zayed was getting? was it a large group shouting racist comments at him like one local paper is making out or was it a lone drunk?

He has always got a bit of stick from Pat's fans, Normal sort of stuff, Then last year he wrote an article on Extratime saying we always racially abuse him, which just isn't true, So he is not much loved by us, didn't hear any racial stuff myself

[SuperSaint91]

By now he should be able to take abit of stick from us. I didnt hear any racist comments at all, a few shouting ya fat ******* and the likes but nothing of racist note.We should take him out for a drink to show what really nice people we actually are.

Back to the actual topic, around 4,000 in Tallaght, maybe just under by my estimate.

I wasn't there but Zayed can be a bit over -sensitive in my opinion. Saying that, if there was racist abuse then the scumbags responsible should be kicked out of every ground in the country. Zayed does not do himself a lot of favours though; he complains a lot to the officials, team mates etc. Take how he carried on up in Dundalk a few weeks back.

[Invincible]

There was no racist comments toward Zayed. He should be able to take a degree of stick from opposing fans. Obviously not of the racist kind as that's completely unacceptable. This thread has gone way off topic anyway.

[poster]

Still never a penalty.

Yeah, 4,000 for me too. Might be less than that on Friday given it's in the middle of Derry and Dundalk in the space of two weeks

What the hell was that about? Some sort of ground-hopper junkies or just masochists? Maybe Carlisle fans still in thrall to the Rod Squad?

Yeah, I agree. We'll probably get an official attendance though.

[El-Pietro]

went down to Cobh last night for the A Championship game agsinst Shamrock Rovers. bought 130-150 at it. don't know why they aren't in the first division

on an aside Rovers number 7 was the best player on the field, small stocky winger. scored a cracker, seemed to have a bit of an attitude but definitely one to keep an eyey on. was two very young teams playing
