Just out of interest re the comments from the club that the support from the town wasnt as strong as it used to be and that support from out of the town was more prevelant i thought it would be interesting to set up a little poll to see where people on this forum are from ie town or out of town
Where would out of town begin?Quote:

The town is winning so far? Did everyone vote? :confused:
I think we have more than 25 fans though......
I have a small problem with this!I consider myself a full blooded townie but have live outside for 2yrs now.And having lived next door to showgrounds for ten yrs and grew up within spitting distance of the showgrounds.I am a bit confused which way to vote but have decided vote for outside as I travel from outside boundary for games now.
Your a townie who has converted to a buff, shiba :DQuote:

i think a proper survey would show that there is more ppl from town but the ratio isn't as substantially in favour of town as it used to be
Just wondering what does the term "buff" mean?Quote:

Anyway, where did the term originate.
I'd take a stab at it and guess - "Big Ugly Fat Farmer"

considering the lack of away fans in the showgrounds&the sixe of the town we;re still puttin most prem teams to shame. dublin city&bray's averages have show a dfifference of around 400(the increased away fans in prem). if u factor in that it's pretty decent
More due to their proximity to the 4 big Dublin clubs than other Premier teams themselves.Quote:
