I dont know what the exact arrangements are for away fans but rumours suggest the number will be small.Quote:

I am sure if Sligo were opening a new ground they'd be looking to look after their own fans and sponsors etc first too.
bhs
What would Sligo be opening a new ground for?. We have the Showgrounds and you'll never see houses built on that.:D
I hope those of us that were in Glenmalure Park 22 years ago will get first preference on the away tickets!!! ;)Quote:

Milltown was a proper football ground it was a shame to see it go

Cans for the queue?? :DQuote:

5% of 1500 would be a nightmare , there is a big fuss about Shams latest ground rental agreement I can remember a similar excitment in the early nineties when they were renting the RDS , massive crowd for the First game against Pats but between them they played out a dire 0-0 draw , there were queues to get out from half-time onwards and only a few returned for the subsequent matches hence we are being called upon to put on a show of football for the first match this time around to help them to encourage people to return for subsequent matches.Quote:

In fairness, KRAM returned the favour and sent us a few bob later when we were (imagine this) in financial crisis.Quote:

I think they should think about switching it to a bigger ground !Quote:
