You must also factor in all the people who were standing on the steps. We had another 30 or so in Block C.Quote:

well done cork fans....
Sligo v Monaghan this friday will surely be the biggest away support in the first division...lets see how it compares
Yes can't wait.Quote:

Bohs v City have been good games in last few years as both sides always play good passing football against each other.
Going to Belfield for "football" game was a real let down after Bohs V City.
Special credit to the nearside post at Shopping Centre End. In Post we Trust to paraphrase the Simpsons :D
You'll not see anywhere that there were 500 fans in Ballybofey.Quote:

Good banter between fans of the two City's last night I thought
ahh now Maribor , there were one or two derry heads boastin on the city site of 500 DCFC fans goin to ballbofaay-there was 6 9very good banter that nite too) and there was 32 city fans at the game -believe me ,I counted.Quote:

I was at the match, wearing a orange wig and mask in keeping with the fancy dress theme amongst the travelling support.
Personally I only counted five, the lads who walked past during the "Rebel Army, yer having a laugh chant"
However I am led to believe there were more, and I am sure UCD appreciated every one of them as there was no-one at that match last night.

yer not very good at this counting lark :p
Without turning this into a ****ing contest.......
I said that I personally counted five.
However I could see there were Cork fans down the far side of the stand from us but I was there to watch Derry win, not count Cork fans.
Reports vary from 15 to your estimate of 32.
To be honest I don't care...............:D
Yeah, I would have guessed around 700-750 which is a very good support, but considering they're going for the double and that it was on a bank holiday afternoon, it's pretty much what I would have expected.Quote:

Over counting (or counting each one 5 times) the 6 derry fans in donegal ;)
Special mention should also go to George O'Callaghan and Danny Murphy who applauded the Bohs fans before going down to celebrate with their own. I would admire them both as players even if they were c*nts but you have to have huge respect for that kind of sporting behaviour.
Contrast it to that tosser Woods who must have been upset because Bohs fans were ignoring him during the game - obviously hasn't worked out his Rovers inferiority complex yet.
Maribor, Gav wasn't in Belfield, I think you're at cross purposes here.Quote:

As for Belfield, there was 5 in my car alone, I think about 20ish overall, tbh, we didn't lend to the home support though. Did have a laugh with a few of ye though, the guy in the Superman outfit, fair play :D
