Judging by the ground layout looks like there is a temp stand behind the dressing room end and terrace designated for away fans and maybe a separate turnstile and pathway probably fenced off for away fans. According to Bohs message board they have a 50 seater bus filled as well as a large group coming by train so expect a good atmosphere...
A few security guards in the laneway, or a few guards if they're around, and it should be fine. There's not many teams fans I'd worry about causing trouble in Limerick.
It'll be interesting to see what kind of crowd shows up after that off-season and the stadium switch. Is 700+ optimistic or should we be expecting four figures for the first game at least?
I'd be happy if we have around the 700 mark. Anything over that would be fantastic. It's very hard to know how people will react to the loss of so many players and the Markets Field falling through.
No excuses for the people of limerick not too come out and support the teams first game at home.as usual people will find an excuse and not bother to come out and support their local loi side.
There's plenty of excuses, some of them are bloody valid ones too!
I'd be well pleased with seven or eight hundred.
2245 in Eamon Deacy Park tonight...
Forget it Treaty Gooner. It's Galway.
We had close to if not over 4000 at our first game back in the premier, its what crowds will be like in a few weeks that matter.
I'm bringing at least two people possibly three who've never watched Limerick play before, along tonight, not sure they're going to be all that impressed with Jackman, but lets hope it's a decent match!
If the crowd is anywhere near 800-900, it should create a decent atmosphere which could overshadow anything else.Quote:

Would it not have made more sense to put that beside the existing stand?Quote:

From that distance it looks alright, but up close it might be a state.
For tonight I'd say f**k 'em, they're only Dubs:DQuote:

Very very long season ahead absolutely clueless shocking stuff
I'll agree, it's going to be a very very long season. That big Samuel-Oji-shaped hole in defence was exposed tonight.Quote:

What happened there?Quote:
