Great numbers going to watch Derry. The club should get on to Arlene to spent some of the Tory "cash for votes" money on extending the new stand.

There's £32m available to spend on club football stadia in NI.

But without a working Stormont, no-one can access it.

2,616 announced at Dundalk v Harps. A good few seemed surprised as it looked just over 3k.

With 1100 northsiders over on Tuesday you can count on the full riot squad/ public order division being there as well as the shoplifting and pickpocket squads being out

And thats just for home fans 😁

Obviously there is the community work at Bohs and Im sure other clubs have their initiatives. What is great to see on TV is the packed Jodi Stand and the Dalymount roar when a goal is scored - the impression is very good (as long as the camera doesnt pan around to the dugout side...
