Bus to Monaghan July 3rd - Sunday Evening Kick Off

Enquiries have been made about organising a bus to the Monaghan game, so here it is.

If you would like to travel to Monaghan to support the lads, then please contact me ASAP. The sooner we know numbers the better. Monaghan isnt far and it gives people the perfect chance to see the team in an away game. We owe Monaghan a defeat since their win in the showgrounds. the only loss to date. We all know what games we attended in 94 along with all the stories of being on the road. Let's make 2005 a year to remember.

Monaghan have excellent facilities for supporters and i'm sure the team would be grateful to see the bit o'red faithful turning up in large numbers.

Enquiries to 086-1700687.

What about Limerick? Thats a much bigger and more important game. Any travel arrangements done for this one? We really need a good support for this game.

Unfortunately this game is on a Friday, so it would be hard to get enough people to go for it. The bus would need to leave early evening.

We've only had enough interest to bring one bus this year to a game which was in Athlone. Hopefully the demand will increase for all games cos it's great going to games with a bunch of fellow supporters.

I'll definetely go again Gary. If it's going put my name down ;)

With a risk of thunder.

Hi all

Would be great if people who know they are going can forward me their name and contact number for booking the bus. (13 so far)
The earlier this can be done the better becuase one we've enough to get a bus, i'm sure others will want to go when they hear of the bus definitely going. So put your name down. never too early. For those driving why not just leave the car at home and relax on the bus. This game gives us the best chance of our biggest away crowd of the season, so let's all go together and generate a good buzz in monaghan. If we can get buses going regularly the momentum will build and more people would be on for going.

cheers

** also keep an eye on the 28th of July - away game vs dublin city. On a thursday though.

What time is kick off? Hopefully be able to go depending on the time.

What time is the bus leaving the Showgrounds Gary? And is it near full yet, how many people you got so far?

sorry missed this reply. Bus will probably leave about 11am or so. Which gives us loads of time to get up, have a look around and go to the game.

So far we've 18 going. but 8 of those are unconfirmed as am waiting to hear back from a lad and his friends. We're thinking about just brining a small bus and closing bookings when we've enough. alot better to bring a small one and keep it going than try to fill a big bus and for it to end up not going.

I'd say to anyone thinking about travelling, to book now as there's a possibilty that booking will close once there's enough to fill a small bus. there's no point trying to book at the last minutes becuase that's no good for us to try and plan a bus with adequate capacity.

We've got posters printed and will be putting around town tonight/tommorrow so hopefully that will spark more interest.

I'm sure if we beat Cobh their will be a lot more going

What about Kilkenny on the 16th Gary? I'm sure we'd all love to go down and see Pat Scully in action :D

lads,

if ur going to monaghan i'll need names more or less now. We have to get the numbers in by tommorrow, to determine the size of bus going.

re: kilkenny - as always, if there's enough interest we'll organise a bus. so we should be brining 2 or 3 buses with demand to see Pat Scully huge :D

cheers

Are you sure it's on a Thursday Gary? I know the Rovers site says so but, correct me if I'm wrong, dont Dublin City play on Saturday nights in Richmond park now?

:confused: , City fans let me know please

Also, did you get the bus full yet Gary? Is it a mini-bus or a big bus?
