    Ndrog think they are great

    You never had 500 there at the Cup game no more than 150-200 fact.
    Crowd was 1920,you never had 500 there.

    The only team to have anything like 500 this year in Dalymount was Pats(first game).

    A little over half full jodi plus 400 or so Drogs = 1920. Sounds about right to me

    You and ndrog are picking up on one comment made by one person, when it's fair to say your club's behaviour on this matter has been disgraceful.

    Who rattled your bleedin cage?!! I've said it on here and on the Drogs mb that our club have been d*cks over this so I'm not sure what you're on about! We're talking about crowds here anyway.

    An anyway, Bohs now have their tickets, so everyones happy

    Well its clear now why Drogs didn't want to send tickets to dalymount & it would seem that Bohs are only one in a long line of creditors looking for their rent money & will more than likely have to settle for the Rovers 4% payment only option.

    Out of interest, how many season ticket holders do Bohs have ? You would have thought that these would get priority for any all ticket games. Personally if Dundalk decided to sell to first come on a work day and then allow people to buy 6 at a time I would be less than impressed.

    We don't do season tickets as such AFAIK - at least I've never seen one - we are a members club, owned and run by them as a body (in theory....) - there's about 500 members. In the past, for important matches with limited tickets, members have been taken care of first, but this didn't happen today.

    A lot of angry people out there. A few people who have been to all games home and away left without tickets. Thats a disgrace.

    The ONLY foot.ie user with a type of logic named after them!

    All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.

    Do members get a dedicated seat and the bulk-buy of games for a season up-front (i.e. the same benefits of a season ticket) ?

    Heard they were sold out, so planned to travel on spec. Then the FAI told us not to, saying we wouldn't get in. Now I hear they released more tickets, and that I could have made it.
    Five years without a trophy and now forced to miss the game at which we clinch it. Thanks a lot Drogheda. Thanks a lot FAI. And thanks a lot to whoever was responsible for distribution of member tickets at BFC. You're all just brilliant.

    No dedicated seat (thankfully, there's a lot of people I 'd hate to have to sit beside all season), but 'free' admission to all league games, first dibs on euro/ cup tickets, a reduction on merch. and - *cough* - a say in how the club is run.....
