    Same as in dalymount with the guards not letting bohs fans into the sea kelly. Against rovers I can why but most other matches it's just not going to be a problem.
    It's a case of why bother with the risk of say from the guards perspective

    2448 in Dalymount. Dull enough game, sparked to life in last twenty minutes.Two games in three days after a break is crazy scheduling, as is sending Derry on a tour of Ireland over the weekend.

    Morons would don’t give a toss running the league is to blame for that.

    Massively impressed to see about 20-30 Cork fans in Finn Park tonight. Great credit to them making that journey on a Monday, although I'm aware there's a handful of them staying over.

    Around 800-ish attendance I'd have guessed.

    Extratieme have it down as 2319 but I assume that's a typo, around 2,800 there I reckon.
    Here on a technicality.

    I think he said there was 318 in attendance in the Market Field. It was hard to hear. They would want to turn up the volume. It was an enjoyable game. One of the best I've seen live for a while.

    Have a good weekend.

    Wouldn't have thought it was anywhere near that myself to be honest.

    The ground only holds about 3,400, and there were loads of empty seats everywhere.

    I'd say 2,500 absolute max.

    One huge positive from this season has been how patient our supporters have been during a very difficult season - 876 at Terryland Park for United vs Shels, around 100 away fans to witness a facile win.

    thats very impressive. even though our season is ok after having suffered a recent blip we cant hit those nos on the gates unfortunately.
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Galway has around seven times the population that Longford does though Marty, so I wouldn't feel too despondent about that if I was you.

    Approx half of the East stand was allocated to visiting fans. There was not a single fan in the other half. The first empty section was already set up to accommodate more away fans with netting on its southern side, so extra visitors could have easily been safely accommodated while still retaining space for an overflow of home fans. Even though the stadium was at about 60% capacity, you and others are still implying that these limits were in place in case some 2000 to 3000 extra unexpected Rovers or neutral walk ups turned up. That's bizarre rationale.

    Based on previous practices, many visitors would have expected to be able to buy tickets at the stadium if the match was not sold out. The late afternoon announcement by Rovers via Twiiter to say no visitor tickets would be sold was strange to say the least. At best it indicates inefficiency to communicate this so late in this way. Dundalk are not blameless here as they should also have clearly established the situation earlier and not have fans in the dark.

    The bottom line is that there was no obvious reason not to accommodate the extra 100 - 200 fans.

    Making it difficulty for paying punters to get into matches that are not sellouts seems to be a peculiarly Irish phenomenon
    And Dundalk fans regularly complain about away sections while having a health hazard as theirs. It may surprise you to learn that a grounds owners and the people responsible for the publics safety do in fact have quite a big say in what happens.

    It wasn't set up for extra fans, that's how you do segregation if you have space. There are tonnes of reasons for Dundalk fans not being allowed past the halfway. Home overflow, lack of demand (dundalk didn't sell out until 3 hours before kick off), inability to change the segregation last minute, distance to available emergency exits. Though I doubt you'll accept any and just continue to rant on about nothing as you tend to do.

    How are rovers supposed to announce dundalk end tickets are sold out before dundalk sell them? Please explain that one? Whatever about the size of the away section Dundalk were given the 900 tickets and told that's all there is, any complaints about not being able to buy at the gate belong solely at the feet of Dundalk not Rovers.

    Yeah just completely ignore the fact the Dundalk away end regularly sells out when oriel as a whole does not, pot kettle black.

    Well you have a point about everything you said apart from this, Thats just a blatent lie, Oriels away end is never/rarely sold out. Rovers once (Cup 1/4 final) and Cork (League decider) are the only games to even come close to selling out.

    You are comparing an apple with a turd on this on RH. Lets hope that Dundalk ask for 1k tickets in future, even have a reserve list that closes with enough time for additional accomodation of away fans if needed.

    A few years ago now but Bohs v Dundalk in Oriel when Joey NDO scored the winner, sold out and hundreds of Bohs fans turned away

    Opening day of the season around 09/10 wasn't it?

    If we want to go even further back, when Pats won the league in 96 up in Oriel we just took the home end, I'm not even sure there were any Dundalk fans there that night :-)
    Here on a technicality.
