If that's all were given, then expect plenty to go on Waterford's website and just but direct from there. Many already have.Quote:

Not particularly, but waterford tend to have big attendances for our games, I'm sure they feel they can sell the tickets to home fans. If they can, then it's reasonable to give the minimum to away fans.Quote:

Waterford event controller posted on our forum stating that general admission tickets won't be accepted by away fans. We'll have to go neutral colors in the home section.
The extra tickets were there to give Rovers, general consensus is they won’t be when we play Cork especially with our form. There’s a big interest in the club locally at the minute. The percentage will be more or less the same as the one we got in TC. Club can’t make available seats that aren’t available. People need to realize for the moment the capacity is 3,100.Quote:

There was talk a while back of extending the Cork Road Stand to bring the ground up to 5,000 seats but that will only be considered if the need arises.Quote:

Cork fans don't go to away games anyway. 150 will be plenty :rolleyes:
Thought that was only to Oriel Park!Quote:

Extremely generous!! And at the cost of home fans. That's 15% of capacity.
Maybe 500 in Drogheda tonight. I'm sure some Drogs might be a bit more accurate in their guess. Surprised to see around 50 Harps fans travel on a Monday night after the farcical events there last time.
Why?Quote:

Or do you thing that people able % willing to travel would refuse to support their team on some sort of point of principle?
I don't understand what you're trying to ask.Quote:

I expected very little to make the journey given the circumstances around the late postponement a few weeks ago.Quote:

1,122 at Limerick vs Waterford.
3263 Dundalk v Bohs
good crowd up from bohs(as usual :good:)
Just shows the fickleness of the Irish sporting public, a decent spell for a club with LOI history gets lapsed fans out of the woodwork, who were martyrs back in the day or so they claim but stopped going because of unspecified heinous acts by the club, same fellahs will find done other reason for not going when things go Pete Tong and I am looking at you too Waterford.Quote:

No point throwing it at us. Every single team in the league attendance drops when the club declines. The Irish supporting public are best at one thing and that’s creating a and jumping on a bandwagon, proof of that is in every sport in the country!
That's just football.Quote:

50 odd were in the Fane Bar pre match. No graffiti, mess, and even gathered up empty glasses before they left. Mounted Gardai looked damn bored!Quote:

I was there, bunch of young fellas had their pints and sing song and went to the game.Quote:

Anyone get the Pats/Derry figure?
I thought it looked an awful lot less maybe 800 but fair play that’s a great attendance for a series 1 game, you’d like to imagine a series 3 game would be double that. Great facilities inQuote:

Ah no, definitely a lot more than 800 to be fair. The main stand holds 1,500 and there was a decent crowd in that, although it was sparse enough at both ends of the stand. I thought there was at least around 800 in the New Stand alone, if not more, with a good sprinkling around the ground and Old Stand.Quote:

1,029 was a decent crowd in the end, but we did little to entertain them.

What’s the story with the maroon army? Only about 4 or 5 lads actively singing in it. Use to get big numbersQuote:

Otherwise I love the ground it was the first time I was over near the tunnel and they did a great job there at the dressing rooms area. Wonder is this Galway FA that is causing this problem? do other loi clubs have this problem also?
No idea, there must've been a repeal the 8th march on in town or something.Quote:
