Those Dundalk fans must be very exciting about playing their fierce local rivals if they're camping out overnight for tickets.
Says the club who brought 20,000 odd to a cup final yet cant get 1000 at a home game!Quote:

Is this really true? I drive past oriel park every night and I saw a bus there last night, assumed it was for bingo or something, that's mental. I was going to ask what was stopping people going up at 8am and buying them, but this obviously.Quote:

I have "home" tickets and am going to the game with 10 lads who are in a similar position. We'll go in in ones and twos. There will be plenty of other Dundalk fans there.
I don't know how true the queuing overnight is but if it is isn't it nice to see something like this for the game here. We're always giving out about poor attendances so it's a change to see a bit of demand for tickets.Quote:

Ok but if you stand there with a 15e ticket with home written on it and don't get in, don't say ye werent warned! :-)
Doesn't affect me as I have my away ticket but I honestly don't see how a steward at the gate will be able to tell if someone isn't from Drogheda.Quote:

I would expect a response from anyone who was told no even though they paid 15 euro.
it will all come down to how you say "maaaaaassss baaaaaaa" and "staaaaaaaa baaaaaaa". If you say it correct, your out of the ground.Quote:

You said you have a small home crowd and know the faces, so I assume that there will be about ~400 Drogheda fans at the game? Not possible that people from Drogheda who haven't been to a game all season will attend (is that a bandwagon as well?)?
In fairness to you, you are entertaining!
Dundalk people are notoriusly ugly anyways, shouldn't be hard to spot them.Quote:

People will be asked to come to the game barefoot and if you have 6 toes on each foot, you're free to go into the home end. Otherwise, you'll be refused entry.
Jaysus H, the wit levels truely are pathetic on this site these days. Though in saying that, the picture is very funny!
I'm very relaxed sure didn't I even pay you a compliment ;-)Quote:

Anyway this could all have been avoided if ya's had just built that new stadium a few years back!
We got more tickets today, 150 Ive been told. On Sale in Oriel in last half an hour until 6pm
Would like to see a Dundalk/Sligo final.
Missing Peersie and Dave McMillan. Don't see us doing it against Shams the way our midfield is/isn't playing.
I know it's unlikely, but if anyone comes across a stream that works in the UK I will be forever grateful!
Just not another Drogs vs Sham Rovers final is all I ask

Fun times in Drogheda! Dundalk down to 9 men.
Dundalk absolutely imploding. 2 reds in a few minutes and penalty to come..
Scored.. Drogheda in a great position now.
That's 4 reds against Drogheda in their last three cup games.
I can understand the refs decision but in real time both tackles looked like yellow to me. Very interesting second half to come
On first look the first was harsh but by the replay it was a red, studs up and flying in.
The second never a red.
Dundalk FM must be pretty funny right now. Can't get the stream working unfortunately.
First was a Yellow, second was not a peno or a red.
Brilliant performance from Dundalk. Buttimer takes another big cup game and ruins it!
Quite an unbelievable game. Ist red was just messy, had to go. 2nd wasn't even a penalty.
Ref ruined the game, simple as that.
If that's the standard or reward for a side getting to the FAI cup final, with less than 1,000 home fans bothering to turn up, I give up.
I didn't think either decision was that bad to be honest. First was a stupid, dangerous tackle and the second denied a shooting chance in the box.
