    Joy - that will be 7 games for us against Pats this season (and the Cup draw hasnt been made yet).
    And they wonder why crowds are down then!
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

    Stop losing to us then. Under the "old" league system there would still have been 6 games, with a 50/50 chance of the only game less being away to Pats. You really think that one game is the reason your crowds are poor?

    People on here really do have a go for no reason what so ever.

    Dodge, my original post mentioned noting about losing to Pats, so how you came to that conclusion I don’t know. We are going to play ye 7 times this season – and speaking from experience of playing Cork 8 times last year – it affects the football because. Games can become predictable and fans will only get bored playing the same team that many times, which has to affect crowds. Going to football games can be expensive and Ive heard people say they won’t go this week cause they will be playing that team later in the season and go then instead – and the same goes for away games, I don’t know how many times Ive heard people say they will travel to the next away game against a certain team.

    My overall point was that the premier league should be enlarged, to many games against the same opposition is making it stale I think.

    Under the recent old system didn’t teams play each other 3 times (which was plenty I thought.).
    And who said our crowds are poor. Considering were practically bottom and have only won 2 games all season having an average home league attendance of 2000 I think is fairly respectable.
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

    Either you're happy with the crowds or you're not?

    You were talking about 6 games - 4 is bad enough



    Crowds overall are crap. Playing teams 7 + times aint helping.

    If you want to discuss it at the next game, no probs PM me.
