    I'd say about 50-60 only...dissapointing stuff but we made a lot of noise for the small amount of us that were there!

    If everyone who is going brought someone who would not normally go - hey presto!!! we would have a massive crowd - I am flying back for the game, just booked up!

    Remember encourage, cajole or bully - but get more people thru the gate!

    Some might even like it - but on the other hand why should we have to suffer alone!

    Unhappy

    It was one of the worst Supported games I was ever at, in the corner where we were I would say 60/70 people & made plenty of noise (couldn’t here us on TV though) I would say another 20/30 scattered throughout the remaining stands (seen a few familiar faces out & about)
    Taught the BoR done very well, Cork players had to resort to diving to win the game, they probably would have anyway but with 11 men on the field we could have got a draw, they didn’t want a Draw at all costs & it worked for them.
    Class set up down there, the ground is class & the Fans were bang on.

    The Bus was Good craic & everything went well, as Gustavo said only the one no show, & we had a contingent from Leitrim as-well (fair play to him). It was a lot of work sweating over numbers & the sort, not worth it, I can see why the trust have problems…

    He was through on goal, and was clearly fouled. Nothing wrong with that. The penalty might not have been totally clearcut (haven't seen it on tv yet), but by all accounts the guy stuck his leg out which is always a risk. There's a difference between diving and going down when you could maybe stay up.

    Don't be silly...
    this is the most blinkered view of a game I've ever seen.
    City dominated the game from start to finish, had 3 clear penalties, never mind just one, and there wasn't a solitary dive from a City player during the entire game.
    What about the broken nose John O'Flynn got off the ball?
    OR the elbow Kearney got to the face?

    You played well and gave a decent account of yourselves, but don't get carried away with scoring a goal at Turner's Cross.....

    Cork's nets...

    Why do Cork have blue and white striped nets?

    ...That quote is either from you yourself or a Sligo report.
    O'Donovan was persistently fouled by your left back, and a stronger referee would have sent your man off for that.

    I'd love to know. The ground is owned by the MFA, so presumably it's their decision- maybe their colours?
