You wouldnt bend over backwards to help them out but if its a positve opportunity being spurned then bridges are burnt another way. Monaghan United were past masters at doing petty, flooding away dressingrooms, shutting off showers, deliberately delaying player registrations among other more serious messing like not opening a gate for an ambulance needed for a player with a leg injury but it wasnt reciprocated, Id have been disappointed if it was as it would have been stooping to minnowism.
    Now that you mention Monaghan Utd had that something to do with them withdrawing from loi in 2012? Had no idea they were at this carryon at all.
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Surprised noone has commented on this. See that shamrock rovers are charging €15 for this.
    At least with Drogheda you can pay online to go in their crap kip of a away stand and get a discount off their price.
    And Rovers are the bigger club that is scandalous this should be charged for all first division games. They are already charging same price for the top flight clubs in Tallaght. They can afford to do a discount.
    Fair enough if you are a rovers season ticket holder you get in free but wot about taking the away fans into consideration?

    RathfarnhamHoop will be along in a minute to politely explain that you are incorrect and cheerfully suggest you not criticise Shamrock Rovers in the future

    I was a bit surprised by that myself tbh, thought it might be a tenner.
    Hard to criticise the club though as all season ticket holders are getting in for free and this would be the group who probably would have paid in rather than the casual fan so gate receipts are likely to be pretty low.
    Have to say am looking forward to seeing some of the young kids playing against Galway on Saturday

    Tenner for adults and kids free. The crowds will be small enough without charging such mental prices to First Division games.

    Could it be that the gate receipts will be low because of the pricing policy?

    Tallaght stadium is only ten minutes away so I would have been tempted to a few games. I haven’t been to a FD game since Cabinteely entered the league but the ticket price will keep the causal punter away.

    History shows that Rovers B team in the first division a few years ago didn't travel to away games, and hardly showed up for home games either.
    How many players are they allowed register for both teams as there’s at least six first teamers registered there.
