    an attendance where you cannot accurately count the entire crowd in the first 5 mins of the game
    Or
    An attendance where the gardai/stewards/order of malta do not outnumber the fans

    We had a stripper installed last season.

    I think most clubs have them as part of licensing at this stage. That's where Coughlan went wrong. He mis-heard, and got an asset stripper instead.
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    You're being a bit harsh there. I'm sure other clubs apart from Bray have the occasional attendance where you can't accurately count the entire crowd in the first five minutes!

    The score angels should come to LOI games more often.

    A good atmosphere. You can put up with bad facilities if there is a feeling something is at stake. Our Singing crew all seem to have disappeared and a lot of them are in Austraila (no kidding)

    A good loud bunch of away fans helps matters as well.

    Stewards in Finn Park to stop the 10 Sligo fans from standing at the railing in front of the only tiny stand that has seats in it and stopping other fans from seeing the game.

    Especially for Sam Heggy

    You have clearly missed his point. Check the thread on the contrary to this.

    Proper pre-match build up, make an event and the event junkies will come. Won't help the self-inflicted paranoia of some fans, but it'll boost the league big time.

    Exactly, screw all the people who say they don't want the barstoolers in the LOI. Just because you enjoy your martyr complex, and having something to moan about in the pub doesn't mean the entire league should be held back!
