A few points:
Segregation - happens at most grounds, Tallaght, Inchicore, Dundalk, Tolka, Cork..................
View blocking barriers - agree with you there. The view is restricted due to the pylons, the press gantry and the double fencing under the press gantry. There are plans to replace the floodlights on that side of the pitch. The press gantry looks a bit permanent and something should be done about the double fence.
Chip van - there was easy access to both chip vans last Saturday night, no barriers in place.
Paint on the wall - it's a condition of entry to all LOI grounds that spectators do not enter onto the playing area. Therefore paint on the wall is a non issue. Anyway it did not stop a number of Cork supporters entering the playing area after the equaliser. Having said that it did not stop the idiot Rovers supporter either from running onto the pitch to replace Brush in goals when he got injured. How much will this cost the club? And add in the flares.
€15 - that's the going rate
In general, all clubs are concerned about security given the way the FAI hand out fines. Don't forget the FAI make a profit from the LOI every year and that's one of the ways they milk the clubs.
