Were the tourists from Donegal in the South too?!

Are fans of other teams not allowed to attend Cup Finals now or something?????

Exactly, plus each LOI club were given 2 comp tickets for the game. The brandywell is only half hour from me and I attend matches there a good bit when Harps aint playing. Is there something wrong with that? Of coarse I wear my Harps colours in case of confusion :cool:

It would be a disgrace if a fine were to happen as it was all part of the show which again was a credit to both set of fans, BUT we were fined along with Derry for throwing bog roll onto the pitch �500 each plus isnt the fines for smoke bombs �100 each so Bohs had 2 lit, it will be interesting to see what the FAI do.
This is one thing that should be sorted out with this all new wonderful FAI run LOI, pointless fines that eventually detract from a great atmosphere and spectacle.
Rant over :cool:

And not forgetting the Derry City pitch invasion after the final whistle of extra time

Yeah so all in all Delaney should get himself a nice holiday out of that game, maybe a med cruise :rolleyes:

What a stupid thing to say. Only someone extremely stupid would say something like that. Are you? Or are you trying to stir sht? So you are either stupid or a WUM. Personally I think its a little from column A and a little from Column B. There was a 53 seater bus that was packed to capacity. I was hardly sitting on my own.
As for your other comment, I don't bring the flag. I have no control over the stewards to make them take it down but I'd wager a fair wad of cash a muppet like yourself has sung the run away a fair few times.

Anybody know were the play off takes place. Is it at a neutral venue or is it another toss of the coin

No idea.

If it's City v Harps I would hope it'd be home and away like the promotion-relegation play-off, as that would guarantee 2 passionate bumper crowds and a great climax to the season.

City v Cobh wouldn't be anywehere near as appealing a fixture, and would involve a lot of travel if it was two-legged.

All the more reason for Harps to win the First Div now.

Exactly, we want revenge for the cup exit :cool: If its a 2 legged affair then there will be at least 5000 attending each of the games. I thought it was a one off game and home advantage decided at the toss of a coin, but then again IF its Derry - Harps then the FAI will want to milk it and make it 2 legged, id say they will decide nearer the end of the season.
Nothing is 100% btw in the 1st Div, so I dont think Dundalk or Cobh should be dismissed.

So you've gotten over the 2003 play-off result and the 43 other defeats by now then......? :D

I hope any City-harps play-off would be two-legged, with the final leg at the Brandywell. It'd be a huge financial boost for both clubs, would be two great footballing occassions, and would be excellent to see televised by Setanta.

Very true. I hope yee's win it anyways, as Harps are my second team...! :)
