More than that man, at least 5000 there. Main stand was full, bar away end and most of the new stand was full.

How many would Rovers expect to get every match day if there was no restrictions?

It always seems to look more empty in pictures than I think it is when I'm there so I was being deliberately conservative. I think Stu gets the official figures now so I'm curious anyway.

The managers notes welcomed Athlone Town to Flancare park and you had the cheek to charge �3 for them.

LoI at its finest.

About 350 in Ferrcarrag with 30 or so Harps fans spread out in the ground. I have yet to leave that ground warm. It's right up there with Bray as being the coldest ground in Ireland.

I'd have a stab at just under 2,000.

Are you saying that you would bring more away than to a home game?
Thats a bitter comment to make.

I agree that charging three quid is too much, it has been all year even when we were producing programmes for each match. I don't know what they're doing with the stickers it was the same against Athlone but at least the notes in there were for the right game. As for the rest of the post, bickering over which team has the least pathetic support is downright embarrassing, in my opinion. On both sides.

You are joking? There was no way near 2,000 at the game. Tops 1,500 and probably less than that, would have said about 1,400 at the game.

Never mind your after-match activities, how many were at the game.

I think 1,500 was closer to the figure for Dlk v Sligo. Our avg is slipping by the week with our position almost secure.

Just as well we have Rovers next week.

tbh with the limerick game coming up there will be also the same match program produced with stickers like the other night.. you cant really blame the editor if firstly there is not much return from selling the programs and programs do cost money to produce after all..

Better off printing team sheets and handing them out I reckon. If you put stickers over old programmes hand them out for nothing or for a euro maybe as they're already left over. Three quid is a bit much for what you get, it's not a criticism of anybody I know it's hard to get people to do anything but there's no content in it and it's one area I feel could be looked at. Just a personal opinion and I'll probably still buy it as a help to the club but others won't and may feel they're being conned.

Glossy paper? Colour? Cut your costs if you can't sustain your current model.

believe me they are cutting costs ... We had the front cover colour at the start of the season but its all black and white now.. You would have to ask the editor for his reasons for doing it..

What was worse was that it was a programme from 2008 :D
