so Harps are charging a fiver for friendlies?

**pineapple stu** · 21/02/2011, 2:08 PM

We've never charged in for friendlies. Don't know if I'd pay either. Though maybe I'm just spoilt.

**Longfordian** · 21/02/2011, 2:09 PM

Ours were a fiver.

**El-Pietro** · 21/02/2011, 2:09 PM

we charged a tenner for the games at Musgrave Park. a 5er against cobh and im not sure what the price is for Bohs on friday

**Magicme** · 21/02/2011, 2:10 PM

Rovers charged a fiver and shock horror didn't even have a guest list.

Surely general admission for league games won't be far from €10 for the majority of clubs this season.

I'd say most premier teams are sticking with €15.

Longford charged a fiver on Friday. Pats were charging a tenner last week for the postponed waterford game (€7 for season ticket holders)

Games should be max a fiver for a friendly. We should be encouraging people to go to games.

The Letterkenny, Swinford and Sligo games were free. Don't know about the Derry game, I'd say it was above a fiver though.

**SkStu** · 21/02/2011, 2:31 PM

so e10 for a friendly isnt unheard of then. Thats a relief.

Harps chargec E10 for the game against Derry, disgraceful. Derry charging �5 for home games.

phew, thats a bit steep for a pre-season kickaround, eh Heggy?

**harpstilidie** · 21/02/2011, 2:58 PM

I was only charged �5 in. Never asked for a student either.

That was a super important cup final though, not a friendly.

**gspain** · 21/02/2011, 3:06 PM

tenner into Dundalk v Limerick. fiver for me and 2 kids into Drogheda v Limerick. Limerick v Mervue was 2 euro iirc.

The JJ Reid Trophy is an internationally recognised and prestigious honour to play in. Not comparable.

Besides, it wasn't a tenner in either. Check Harpstilidie's post.

We probably charged the Derry fans a tenner though, but that's just how we roll.

**SkStu** · 21/02/2011, 3:17 PM

i was only messing. I honestly couldnt give a toss how much any team charges in to any game.

Though i do agree that admission prices for the JJ Reid should be higher. And that Derry fans should be charged more into every game in the country. Obviously.

Good, glad we agree. It was touch and go there for a minute as to whether Pineapple Stu and Myself went over to Canada to open a can of whop ass (whatever that is) on ya.
