My point is that any team in the first division where no one gets over 1k a game, andQuote:

Also the harps fan never said they would get 10k per game. He said 1-2 games could mean 5-10k
But where is he laughing at Harps crowds? Whats him being a Limerick fan got to do with the point he was trying to make?Quote:

Most teams this year in the first division will be doing well to have 500-600 people at games, including ourselves.

Seriously though, what you say is correct. It's not only attendance but as Mr.A said, it's match day income as a whole. Be it a few shirts sold, half time draw, soup and tea, or anything. One home match can mean a lot to a club financially.
Who's laughing? :confused: The only person here having a cut at another club's crowds is you in the part I've marked in your post.Quote:

I don't think there was any drastic over-estimation at all.Quote:

Probably gonna cost you around twelve to fifteen hundred quid.
Not gonna argue costs, but going by your own judgements, something as little as 1000 quid could mean everyone getting their weeks wages or the electricity bills being paid.
I didn't even take the extra weeks wages into account actually. :eek:
Sweet jesus....you don't give in do you.
It just dawned on me when you mentioned wages is all.
Scary business, this league of ireland. :eek:
Salthill devon have an EGM next Sunday as they need to amend their Constitution so they can change their name and colours.
http://www.salthilldevon.ie/Latest-News/Norice-of-EGM.
Interesting to see what happens if they vote no to proposed changes
STD Galway will bend their rules to suit just as the FAI(L) do to suit themselves. Cant wait for the car crash that'll be STD Galway/ Galway United or whatever the feck they call themselves after a few seasons on the bottom of the new 16 team first division. The politics of Abbotstown is no different than what goes on in the Dáil.
its just a cosmetic exercise according to the chairman of the league who is a member there. So they will be only changing the name the day after their opening game Confused.com. There is a lot of former GUFC high flyers and strongly linked people with the fai on their committee too.Quote:

No engineers inspection done or paid for by sdg for their new ground although every other club had to fork out €1,900 approx as it is part of licensing .
The chairman is a sdfc member we wont have to pay im sure, it has to be done this weekQuote:

Great Result, sd GALWAY UTD

Its all worked perfectly, now just wait for Galway to kicks limerick smug ass when yee come to fortress Terryland
Quote:
like barings bank at the end all smoke and mirrors. But when you attend Terryland spot the difference if you can. Its fantastic to be in the mix though cant wait till next week when it starts SD Galway Utd in Terryland
While some of your comments seem a bit tongue in cheek it's still very confusing where you currently stand.Quote:
we should be able to tag on the United and drop the SD next season id say.
handy way of avoiding the debt, same togs, same shirt,same sponsors, same directors, same former committee, same players, same former management team, same ground rent free courtesy of the governing body and an indoor dome in drom to boot.. excellent result
I assure you there is no die hard GUFC fan that would support this team.
