    3,500 sold from Dalymount, expect 4,000 by tomorrow plus ticketmaster of about 1,000, should be a decent crowd if theres also 7,000 from Derry and 1,000 neutrals. RDS Holds 15,000?

    18,500 for Rugby though I'd imagine that the terracing beneath the Grandstand will be closed. 17,000ish capacity maybe?

    Think it was 15,000 alright for Pats' European game.

    Don't join the dark side Magicme, come to the red and white...

    That's good news on the tickets by the way although it makes you realise just how amazing it was for Drogs and Cork to get 25,000 in 2005.

    The buzz around teh City that month(the league decider etc) is what drew the crowd for us. Be surprised if e see the likes of that again. Everyone was talking about it.

    Drogs first major trophy and not to far for them. They have a good bandwagon up there too.

    10k is a good crowd at this stage, could come close to selling out now.

    Yeah, it really can be about the right combination of circumstances. Both teams were lucky that year. We had third place in the league wrapped up weeks ago, the disapointment of the SC semi and only a small chance of catching 2nd so despite the fact that we've had a terrific season, it ended (league-wise) with a whimper.

    What is the best way to the RDS coming in on the N4? Their website only gives directions from Trinity? Any way to avoid city centre? What is parking like there?

Aparently he is very big up there. It was that trip's anthem and since then its been sang in Europe (and indeed over all over the country) whenever Bohs play.

    Thats the story I was told some time back anyway.

    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
