Back by popular/unpopular (delete as appropriate) demand, and another sign that football is only a short trip up the country away. I expect Fingal's departure should remove at least half the rows in this thread.

The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
Massive crowd in Derry.
Alot of Rovers fans up there, missed the first 10 minutes of the game queing for tickets.
Do Derry have the official away attendance?
I heard the Cork game was held up 15 minutes to allow the crowd to get in? That's not a particularly big crowd though; what happened last night?
Great occasion in derry - derry have great fans - ridiculous about 1000 fans queing for 2 holes in the wall to buy tickets 45 minutes before the match. Was hoping for a quick pint but that was scuppered by a 25 minute queue.
I dont mind paying 15 euro in but charging a tenner for my 7 year old kid was over the top. Considering it is 20 euro for him for the season in the showgrounds and that gets into 18 games.
And we are trying to get kids to league matches.
And to finish my rant we were stuck in that dreadful Section A in the corner with the worst view of a football match bar none in the league.
Derry , sort out the match experience - ye are back in the premier league so start treating away fans properly.
I await other fans experiences before deciding if i go back.
An average of 2,785 for the PD last night, obviously helped by Rovers and Derry but still an excellent start for the league after the usual crisis and doom and gloom pre season. Even higher if Cork were in PD.
A great start !
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
