3,500 sold from Dalymount, expect 4,000 by tomorrow plus ticketmaster of about 1,000, should be a decent crowd if theres also 7,000 from Derry and 1,000 neutrals. RDS Holds 15,000?

18,500 for Rugby though I'd imagine that the terracing beneath the Grandstand will be closed. 17,000ish capacity maybe?Quote:

The buzz around teh City that month(the league decider etc) is what drew the crowd for us. Be surprised if e see the likes of that again. Everyone was talking about it.Quote:

10k is a good crowd at this stage, could come close to selling out now.
Yeah, it really can be about the right combination of circumstances. Both teams were lucky that year. We had third place in the league wrapped up weeks ago, the disapointment of the SC semi and only a small chance of catching 2nd so despite the fact that we've had a terrific season, it ended (league-wise) with a whimper.Quote:

What is the best way to the RDS coming in on the N4? Their website only gives directions from Trinity? Any way to avoid city centre? What is parking like there?
Says on the tickets gates are open at 1:30 so I presume sometime around that.Quote:

It comes from Bohs visit to Norway when they played Rosenborg. Aparently one local didnt know much about Ireland until Mr Logan's name was mentioned and Hold Me Now was immediately belted out. Aparently he is very big up there. It was that trip's anthem and since then its been sang in Europe (and indeed over all over the country) whenever Bohs play.Quote:

great sign of irish patriotism just there by the fans in the rds..the singing of ANB nearly would make the hair stand up:rolleyes:
why isn't kalonas playing?
Sammy Morrow didnt enjoy the Anthem!
fcukin hell thought that was a peno!
peno my hole.
Dead cert peno. Awful decision not to give it. Looks like a big Derry crowd.
looked a peno on first view, on the replays no way was it one...
Agreed couldnt really see contact on the replay
WTF was that????
good dive from heary.
****KKK
He fell over! If that was given as a peno to Bohs id say there'd be war.
nutsy doesnt look to happy
Would they shut up about the officials, why do they need to moan? Fenlon's tracksuit does not look too different to a Bohs jersey so whats the problem with getting him to put on a bip
ye there being pedantic, and its no ****ing deal.
agreed - i can see why he was asked to wear it.
enough with the bib .. the commentators are making something out of nothing
George Hamilton has never seen the likes of it!:D
Sure doesn't Paul Cook always wear a bib because of his red jumper and MNS never kick up a fuss.
Commentators are complaining about nothing Buttimer is having a good game only mistake was not booking Morrow!
Don't see why Hamilton kept going on about it. Buttimer has loads of previous in the likes of this.
Just to say, Eddie Foley's last match today. Good riddance to bad rubbish :)
Really good match I think. Both sides trying to play it the right way, plenty of tough tackles, a few decent chances. Looks freezing though, glad I stayed at home rather than being in one of those open ends.
Tbh honest I agree completely with the officials!
And then they're going on Kenny not having to wear one...I'd say that could be possibly because the assistant is on the same sideline he is?
Chocolate soldier, Chocolate soldier, Chocolate soldier, Chocolate soldier, Chocolate soldier!:DQuote:

Fenn would have gone for that challenge at a different stage of the game.
Really good game, Bohs playing some nice football but I think that we had the better of the first half.Quote:
