same could be said of our last match before lockdown. Dundalk had 1k and some Rovers fans didn’t get tickets.
once it’s 50% or more, away fans imo should get 10%.
didn’t like the silence when Derry scored. It’s just not proper!
we’ve had away fans in earlier matches. Was that a condition of the ‘trial’?
Anyone know what the attendance in Drogheda was? The home stand under the camera opposite us was absolutely packed bar the 50 or so seats closed off for an extra RTE camera up on scaffolding. Pats were given 200 tickets and I couldn’t see the little seated stand on our side although I think it’s just for subs and journalists. Overall looked way more than 50% capacity anyways

Top clash between Dundalk/Shams attracts 1800+, while Cork City still emerging from their amazing fall from grace had over 1500+ at the 'Cross last nite against the bottom club in the first division.
Sleeping Giant or wha!
Attendance was 1,809 at the Cross. End of season game with nothing to play for against bottom of the table Wexford. Happy enough with that.
All LoI clubs are small enough with a small enough support anyway no?

Not a ban as such, tickets did not go on sale online to allow home fans make up the 1,800 'limit', this meant there was the unusual sight of home fans on both open seating areas each side of the stand. The only other occasion home fans go into away end is early euro round games.
I did actually see 2 Rovers fans walk out, but they were with DFC fans, so obv a connection, I`m sure a few made it into the stand also, and nothing wrong with that if they did.

As mentioned many times before, its not that much better the other side of the stand, as can't see the far corner either.
But the joys were at least real this time as the home fans had full access to the lilywhite lounge via the away end, and it only fully re-opened that night !

1718 official attendance at the RSC, as always, there seems to be more, but anyway, it's good to see.
