Ramblers 1st Div for 2012 .... thats the word on the grapevine anyway

**bluewhitearmy** · 20/12/2011, 10:46 PM

Well ive spoken to 3 players that say they are signing with them in the 1st.

They will struggled to get support as long as the current Chairman is in place.

So many long time supporters have lost faith in the club, so it will take a long time to presuade people that it is worth spending money to watch a badly run club that went backwards since being in the Premier League.

What a waste!

Congrats to you if it's officially confirmed - only question seems to be whether there will be a 12-team division, which would see all the clubs granted a licence, or just ten, in which case it would be just yourselves and Galway.

Cobh Ramblers could be set for a return to the League of Ireland First Division......

Would be great to see them back in the league, always liked the trip down to Cobh.

i really hope we get back in, and ill be looking forward to reigniting some old rivalry,

i just hope theres still enough people interested in the club for us to succed, some fairly bad rourmours have been spread around the last few years, and a lot of people have become disillusioned towards the club, hopefully the change in the top management will help that,

this is gonna be one long road back, but im happy to take it, anythings better than the A champ

Will be fantastic to have ye back if it happens.

Do you think ye will get any kind of decent support?

**don ramo** · 19/01/2012, 5:05 PM

i dont see any reason we couldnt draw about 3-400 by mid season, i think the lack of a regular schedual the last few years has affected our attendances, (it had noting to do with A chapionship

),

no point in getting ahead fo ourselfs, gonna be a long road back but if we can get off to a decent start i think the crowds will come out and support the lads, as they always have in the past, the support will always be there but actually getting the bodys into the ground is gonna be our biggest challenge id say,
