Next up is Limerick and if we manage to get a result there we could possibly add a couple of hundred to that for the Waterford game on the 29th.
we got 4,500 versus bohs first game
we shoruld get near the same versus drogheda and maybe rovers third game
The Rovers match is on a Tuesday and clashes with the next round of the Champions League so I don't think we'll get that many.Quote:

2000 at Bohs v Derry,including about 150 from Derry.
I know a few lads who were doing the stewarding and were able to let a few mates in that way.Quote:

That's Lawless Ireland for you....Quote:

I could actually see three empty seats in my immediate vicinity.Quote:

That happens all the time at Turners Cross. They delayed kick-off for ten minutes because of it.Quote:

1750 sounds a bit high for this type of match, if it is correct thats quite impressive.Quote:

what was the story with the twenty euro admission fee plus three euro for a match program at harps? the inconsistency of the clubs is driving me bananas to be honest..Quote:

Its €15 each for the terrace tickets.

Still though,€15 for getting into the cross is more reasonable than it is to get into some other league of ireland grounds.Quote:

As much as no player in this county should be earning more than 1k per wk, I think 15 to sit and 10 to stand is just about right.Quote:

€12 is the maximum really for the first division, 15 for the premier is fair enough.
Kildare charged us 15 into Station road on the last day of last seaosn, into an uncovered stand also!Quote:
