~65 Treaty fans in Cobh.
Nothing against the visiting Treaty fans as always all are fondly welcome, but why was the Gardai presence at the ground significantly higher then normal, at least 10 Gardai at one point! :confused:Quote:

I saw that alright, bit mad. Prone to the odd flare but nothing major.Quote:

As mentioned on another thread Galway Utd brought 200 down to Bishopsgate!
1,100 Pats fans in Tolka. When a Bohs fan on here mentioned a good number of weeks back that the allocation has instead from 800 to 1100, I had assumed the fence at the back of the terrace and been moved back but it hasn’t, no visible changes to the away section so I’d imagine shels managed to get another 300 past health and safety somehow. It was absolutely packed in the terrace on Friday but I wouldn’t deem it as dangerous, so it’s good to see capacities rising in the league, even if it’s only by a small amount.

Maybe 25/30 Waterford fans this evening at Finn Park
The club bar or chipper van etc is an issue in tolka. The amount of people in the main stand that won’t sit still for five minutes going back and forth is a pain in the neck.Quote:

I think TC is becoming the choice of venue now for the FAI and the U21 fixtures! :)

Around 80-90ish Dundalk fans in Inchicore tonight. The away crowd they bring to Richmond seems to be getting smaller and smaller with every visit in recent times
Think I spotted 2 away Harps fans in Cobh this evening!
This season now feels like finishing in the bottom half of the league split season - nothing to play for then and the crowd numbers fell off significantly. Ive always felt that Dundalk fans can be fickle and very hard to please. Short memories after that decade in the 1st Division and being not thankful we're mid table premier and building a sqad and a sense of entitlement probably after the SK era. The hardcore fan base is about 1500 imo so not at all surprised by the numbers in Richmond.Quote:

Drogheda had around 100 last night
Pats away allocation (and extended allocation) of over 1000 are all sold out for the cup semi final in cork. Fair play to cork giving more than they’d be required to in order to try help meet the demand
Think there were about 15 or 20 Harps fans in last night.

There was about 20 in or adjacent to (the semi final queue meant being in there was a little weird) the away end and a group of 5 near the away dugout. More than expected TBH.
Those Pats fans will fill about 2 of the 5 sections of seating in the St. Annes Park end, which holds about 2,800. The central section will be kept empty for security reasons leaving another 2 sections of 1,000 seats for home fans.Quote:

It's presumably three sections of the St Annes End, if there's 1,000 seats given to Pat's, seeing as the bottom three or four rows of seats there are blocked off, and the disability access platform at the back of the stand took a good chunk of seats away from the original capacity.Quote:

Kudos again to that schoolboy who left his class at 13.30, got to Oriel via 2 trains, a Luas then back to Cork at 4am. Amazing stuff.
Thought I read DFC sold 150 tickets, 70/80 seems v low for a Friday, but coming off a real bad run including hammered 4-0 in cup QF the previous week, it was never going to be anything big.Quote:

They could close off that end totally if the security could be a problem on the day!Quote:

Classy stuff by a very small minority of Drogs fans last night, on 3 separate occasions and fire brigade guys on hand, deliberately lobbing flares on to the pitch in attempt to damage it, then throwing objects at lino / 4th official. I will make it clear it was a very small number, but at no stage did the majority step in to stop it.
A PA announcement was made that game would be abandoned (exaggeration granted) but still it was mentioned on direction from the officials, seemed a small minority nasty lot party who travelled up, and we don't usually see that from Rovers / Bohs / Pats, possibly even Shels who all travel in numbers.
Made the win even sweeter, actually it was mostly one way second half to compete 4 out of 4 wins this season.
There's a clip online pf one of their fans standing up on the wall with a mega phone asking for no more objects to be thrown or game would be abandoned and it seemed to be well received. Wasn't there but herself was, DFC need to take a major look at their stewarding arrangements. No way shed heads should have been allowed over to goad away fans at the end. Has been flashpoints behind that goal with Derry fans in the past too. shoddy stuff.Quote:

Aye, one of the lads arrived into work and said he'd drove past Oriel and passed several Drogs fans who had their faces covered, never a good sign of someone's intentQuote:
