Excellent and you could not even bring a few hundred to Derry ! Class

because most people were only just back from Sweden and couldn't afford more time off work, thats why!

Our away support was, to put it mildly, absolutely pathetic until about 3 years ago. Its grown every year since then to the extent that it is IMO as good as anyone else in the league. You wouldn't have seen a decent City support at the Showgrounds, because last time you lot were in the Premier, was before our away support started improving. Easy to understand why you have that impression, but we'll put ya right next season ;)

You can hardly call our away support pathetic :mad:. We always bring a good crowd regardless of the location ;).

Without wanting to get drawn into the arguement that our away support is bigger than yours, Cork and Derry are at opposite ends of the country. When games are played on a friday night, it involves taking a whole day of work. It's a 12 hour round trip. I can't get to all the away games, but i don't think that makes me any less of a fan.

Far too many Dublin fans don't ever seem to understand this.
With the exception of Waterford for us, and Harps for Derry, every second week is a long trip for both these clubs, (and the same for Harps, Waterford )

Maybe you should have a couple more clubs in Cork. :p
