Stu's figure is correct as he has updated it for the first 4 rounds of games. 5 rounds have been played. He said he will update when he can.

I applaud galway for the charge of 12 euro in to terryland for me and my 7 year old . This compares to 25 euro for the same father and son to enter the brandywell 4 weeks ago.
The terryland experience is light years ahead of derry as well for view of match , organisation and facilities. I have decided not to go back to the brandywell again.

IN fairness, when he's talkinga bout going with a 7 year old, the overall 'package' (for wnat of a less pukey word) is important. I've paid €20 into Terryland, and €15 into plenty of open terraces with crap views and no loos/shops etc etc. I'm happy to do it

But if I was looking after a 7 year old, comfort, price and view of the game would come into it.

Go on...say it...it won't hurt - product.

**Sean South** · 06/04/2011, 5:03 PM

I heard the reason why Derry let away fans through the main gate and not the turnstiles is that the numbers won't show up on the turnstiles counter because health and safety have reduced the capacity of the main stand. Any truth in this? Or why weren't we brought through the stiles a few weeks back?

I think the main reason was to get everyone in as quick as possible due to crowd congestion outside the ground. The club asked the ref to delay Kick off against sligo but was denied

It's �12 into the Lone Moor Road end, with under 12s free.
You're right about the Brandy though, it's a hole.

Aye, that was the reason. It'd be handier if people bought their tickets during the week in advance mind.

Rovers asked for tickets to sell at The Showgrounds in the week before the match but none were forthcoming.

That's far too sensible an idea.
They're on ticketmaster though.

As Brendy said you could have bought tickets on ticketmaster as when 500+ away fans turn up within a half hour of KO then their is bound to be a delay in gaining entry to the ground.

It also didn't help that a lot of Derry fans didn't buy tickets in the normal outlets in the city before hand.

**avvenalaf** · 08/04/2011, 6:52 PM

And why would i want to line Tommy Higgins' pockets paying booking fees to Whoremaster when I should be able to walk up to a turnstile and pay my way into The Brandywell?

**bullit** · 09/04/2011, 2:00 AM

Shamrock Rvrs V Bray 2500 (et)
Derry V Dundalk 1912 (rte)
UCD V Bohs 777 (et)
Waterford V Cork City 752 (et)

**dfx-** · 09/04/2011, 2:17 AM

I'd say about 4,250 at Tallaght as a safe underestimate...

I thought it seemed pretty low myself DFX.
Cant wait for the guesstimates tomorrow night from the Sligo Rvrs V St.Pats match :/
I have Tom-Goms number, and he is going to the match so i will only accept the numbers he gives to me

No wum intended but did Derry really not anticipate that number from Sligo.
