QuoteLoads of kids in for the family night in Drogs last night. Was great to see! Loads down town today too at the 'D Day' event for the cup final next week. This is what the club is and should be about! Not that rubbish last week.
I'd say most clubs aren't even awake to. It was grand when clubs were getting €5k as that covered any drop. Now when it is gone clubs are just throwing their hands up and wailing about it.Originally Posted by bullit

Any word on where you will be playing the Europa game MM?
Definitely think you'd be better served having it in our place, would suit perfectly plus I'd imagine a good few DLK lads would go also. The guys I go to games with all said they probably would go.
Plus I'd say more people would travel from Drogs too than go to Dublin.

Your club proved that by taking the action they did.
Glad to hear the family day worked out well.
I reckon about 450 at ramblers v harps tonight.
''and I for one welcome our new insect overlords''
100% sure it will be in Tallaght.
I'd prefer to have it in Dayler.
We'll get f*ck all of a crowd if it's in Tallaght.
You've got no fans.

The reporter must've forgotten to count himself!

Drogs always want to go back to their mothership in Dublin.
I wish they'd stop claiming to be a Louth team.

Not sure what MNS has to do with it and not really sure why you seem to be deliberately misunderstanding reasonable points made about maximising advertising sponsorship for live matches. Might have something to do with this?
".....Copy & paste job tonight for the fixtures,swilling pints and smoking joints in Bray at the moment"
Actually scratch my estimate of 450, the official attendance from the clubs Twitter account was 568. I know I erred on the conservative side in my guess but not by that much, still great to see.
It's in Meath sur.
What about Dundalk then, a provo retirement home.
You've got no fans.
I don't even know if Dundalk have offered to host this game to be honest, but it appears its not even a consideration by Drogs. Here we have a club struggling to attract more than 700 to home games in their own town, and they think they can attract more at a european game by moving it either 50 or 60k away rather than 30k and in the same county.
Asking for trouble, but as I said before, their choice. Good luck with this.

That would be a first on this forum!
Take finances out of it because most football fans don't care about the financial side of things. Would Liverpool ever choose to play a home game in Old Trafford if they were in such a situation? The answer is no! There would be general revolt if we held a home game in Dundalk. Sad, but true. And probably true for most other clubs/supporters.
