Hi Raheny Red. The crowds did drop during the year but the 'core' support of the club is growing. We lost our temporary stand during the year, which didn't help and the new stand has been delayed because of planning issues. We love our footie down here and the crowds will come as soon as our facilities are properly established
I don't mean to be over-critical, but that's just downright careless.Quote:

Passinginterest is right. The new stand was due to be completed during the off-season but the planning problem put it on hold. If you know the Youths Complex, the temporary stand for the coming year is being put up on the opposite side of the pitch and construction of the new permanent stand will continue through the season
Bohs Pre-Season: from http://www.bohemians.ie/index.php/cl.../friendies.htm
Bohemian FC has confirmed dates for three pre-season fixtures.
Bohs will take on Kildare County at Station Road in Newbridge on Wednesday, 13 February. The squad will jet off to Spain for a training camp on the 17 February and will take on Spanish lower league side Marbella FC on February 20.
On February 26, Dundalk will provide the opposition in Dalymount Park for Bohemians, upon the team's return from Spain.
All matches will have evening kick-offs, but exact times have yet to be finalised. All updates, including any additional friendly matches, will be featured on bohemians.ie well in advance of the fixtures.
According to Shels Site we are playing them on the 30th aswell?

Does anyone else think... Nah, I must be just a little nit too conspiratorial.
Meanwhile, the Waterford United team building trip away will also be to a very popular resort town in a warmer southern coastal town, known for it's sandy beaches and the chance to get away from it all.
Yes, it will be an afternoon in Tramore.
Careful! Say one bad thing about Tramore, Beardy, let's see what happens! :mad:
:D
Gosh, I've just realised how that must have sounded. Sorry. Tramore is WAAAAAAAYYYY better than Marbella any day. No choice in my mind over the two. Tramore every time;)Quote:
