Re:Tolka

CAn a mod make this a poll please.


looks as though we'll have our biggest away support in the capital this year next friday. A couple of things came up in discussion yesterday.

Do we a) go to the riverside stand

or

b) go behind the goal opposit shels new stand.


I'm for the riverside stand as the noise that we will generate under the roof there will be far greater than behind the goal where the noise will go straight up in the air.

Can those who are going voice their opinion and we'll go with the majority?

I normally prefer behind the goal, but noise-wise its better to be under a roof, so I'll go for the riverside.

Behind the goal is good for television but under the gantry is better for sound.

Never there before. As usual, bringing a flock of kids, so under a roof for that reason, plus the noise factor has to count, so the Riverside it is for me. :ball:

this isnt about TV on this occasion IMO its about maximising the noise to urge the team on.

not as yet. i'd say not

mmmmm, this is a real dilemma imo.
The riverside would probably be better noise wise but personnally (and a few others said this yesterday aswell) I'd much prefer to be behind the goal.

The only plus the riverside has is the noise factor but behind the goal will look a lot better both on the night and on TV and if there's enough of us there we'll make the noise regardless of where we stand.
Also, if we go to the riverside it will result in a split imo because in the end half our crowd will end up going behind the goal for whatever reason anyway. It happened in Dublin City, Rovers and Waterford and will happen again on Friday if we got to the riverside.

I voted for behind the goal.

i think our spiritual leader shed end john should pick ;)

Behind the goal, we'll be more visible, and pyschologically it'll be good for the players seeing hundreds of city fans behind the goal they'll be attacking for 45 minutes. unless it's p!issing raining,of course

My thoughts exactly.
We'll be far more visible and noticeable behind the goal and that matters big time.

Behind the goal, lads. The team can see us much better there, and we will of course have to exchange some polite chit-chat with Stevie.....;)

keep it coming lads we'll go with the majority

I think you're the only away fans in the league who goto the Ballybough end behind the goal.

sure we've always been a bit different haven't we?

In more ways than one - we've also got much more fans!

behind the goal too for me

but i do think we need SEJ to give this planned move his backing
where are ya SEJ ?

Why not in section A in the main stand. Thats where we were for the last game of the season a few years ago when we qualified for the toto cup and handed the title to bohs. Good crack that day.

Will generate lots of noise and will be seen on tv

i suppose nobody has considered that we may be assigned somewhere rather than us actually picking?

i wonder if we will following our last visit to tolka?

we decide on here where we want to go and then we'll go where we want to go. **** those stupid jack thieves of they think they're gonna tell us where to sit. thats our decision
