In relation to the Derry-Cork game in a fortnight what's the story at the Brandywell re away fans tickets?
Do we have to buy them on the night or can we get them direct from the club beforehand?
Just wondering as a few of us are driving up and may be caught for time on the night.
Contact the club on 048 7128 1333, someone will be able to put you right.
Thanks for that.Quote:

you can get them at the ground paudie. I've been up there for the last 2 years and no hassle whatsoever getting tickets.
Capacity is around 7,000 (I stand to be corrected) now with the terracing open again. There probably will be about 100 seat kept for Cork fans. Section A of the new new stand is kept for the away fans. If you bring over 100 with you then you will have to stand over at the lone moor side. I doubt that many of you will be making the trip as it is on TV. I reckon it could be the biggest crowd in years at the Brandywell if we keep winning and you slip up against $hel$ on the Monday night. :D Here's for a good night entertainment - good to see a battle of the city's!
....at the Brandywell gates. The only problem is switching to Sterling, make sure you have N.Irish sterling cos English or Scottish is frowned upon in restaurants and stuff :confused: But there are no problems in the Brandywell cos the stewards etc. are sound and the fans are dead on ;)
True, felt very welcome up in Derry. Think they clapped our team off as well, great of them. Very impressed with everything about Derry last night, atmosphere, stadium, programme, team, stewards and in general the professional feel about the club was top notch. Derry-Cork should be a cracker with a huge crowd, hopefully they can get the camera over the far side to face the main stand which will un-doubtably be packed, the atmosphere I expect will also be brilliant, good to see RTE do the sensible thing and telivise this match, lets just hope there's no Anti-Climax. :ball:Quote:

You are right about Bray getting clapped off. Usually something afforded to every visiting team who have played well unless it's H**ps or the $heliban.
p.s Was very impressed by Bray, very well orgainsed in defence and Zayed is the best forward I have seen this year. Glad you enjoyed your trip to the Brandy and hope you return :)
We'll be leaving late enough as one of us won't be off till 11. Want to have tickets with us just to have one less thing to worry about.Quote:

In fairness I rang the club and they said to send a cheque for €13 for each ticket and they'd post them to me.
I'd hope to bring more than 100 anyway even with live TV.Quote:

A good result in the Shels game will encourage more people to travel.
When people can't make the Uefa euro trip i think they more likely to make an away eL trip. Throw in the fact Derry is like a mini euro trip too we shoukd get reasonable numbers.Quote:

We get a higher than average gate in the EL.
Anyway looking forward to the game, probably the biggest of the season for both clubs. I have a feeling this league title could go down to the last game of the season in Turners cross though.
I think everyone acknowledges that Shels out of it now & is 2 team race. I don't think the result next week will decide thinks either way. However now is your best time to get some points off us as lots of games with Europe 'n all that...Quote:

Looks like will be biggest Cork City support at the Brandywell for a long time now not that would be hard to beat.
Looking forward to night out in Derry too whatever the result.
I think will be good footballing game for tv too.
