    That Bohs kit looks like a Superleague team turned up with red Penneys t-shirts

    That Bohs top really is awful. When they came out at the start of the game, I honestly thought they were wearing red bibs. Who is the club's main sponsor this year, and what do they think about not being on the shirts (or not visibly anyway) ? What do Bohs fans think of it? Surely that's the least black that a Bohs home shirt has ever had? Kenny's jumper looks like he got dressed in an hurry and forgot to take his pyjama top off.

    That was absolutely horrendous. Worst game of the weekend by a mile. Atmosphere seemed awful too.

    Dreadful game. Both teams afraid of their lives to take risks. Sideways backways rinse repeat.

    Good grief, the dampest of squibss this weekend and thats saying something with all the rain and flooding! Its one game but a bit like the cup final, you hope its entertaining to avoid the kicking of LoI, well the dismissive types probably fell asleep. That Bohs shirt isnt much of a Bohs shirt bar including the colours. I wish people would quit trying to reinvent the wheel when it comes to kit designs. Stripes, Hoops, plain in club colours - job done, no nonsense!

    Bohs long sleeve version, a local word to describe it 'CAT' the short sleeve option though actually looks smart, Kenny's jumper...........J Christ, Denis the Menace.

    I get the 50 year anniversary of the Bohs top though, just think the long sleeve is like a training top.

    Overall that was a dull as dishwasher affair. Flat atmosphere and boring game. The Aviva experiment should be put on ice for the foreseeable future.

    I dont think the Aviva game hould be put on ice, but maybe the only game that is high profile enough is the Dublin Derby - Bohs need Rovers to make it a proper success, otherwise it could start making a net loss. I still like the idea of Derby Weekend, maybe as part of St Patricks weekend where all clubs play their main rivals or as close as possible. If Bohs have made more on today than a game at Dalymount than its a success. But it could become a bit of a gamble as mentioned. Out of interest would Dalymount pitch have been playable if it was played Friday as a standard home fixture?

    Only in Ireland could we get 4 times the average attendance to a game and declare defeat

    For those with longer memories…. The Bohs shirt was exactly like the one they sported circa the mid 70’ , worn by Turlough O’Connor amongst others so nothing reinvented

    Bohs using an unattractive/polarising shirt design from an era when the club was amateur does feels rather fitting.Ironic that a club with a reputation for being more of a shirt retailer than a sporting outfit could come out with something so unattractive. The sales figures for it would be interesting (not that they'll ever be released).

    Exactly CJ.

    The game today, yes very nervy

    Pats a lot better first half.
    Bohs gad three scorable chances second half.
    21,000 on a Sunday afternoon for a nothing match. Pretty amazing as I rrrmember regular sunday games in Dalymount with less than a 1,000
    Lots if newbies, families , women..
    .
    A good expirement, hopefully other clubs will try this out.
    Seeing thousands of LOI fans in D4 lifts the spirit

    Ah the irony is entertaining. Bohs fans love to have a go at the crowds in Tallaght when there's more there than fit into dalymount but empty seats regardless.

    Suppose we know who the big club is now at least.

    Will you ever fill Tallaght?
    I think Shels have the biggest crowd there?

    We have yeah. Main aim for us is to consistently reach more than 6k average for the season. What does the new (as yet still not really planned) dalymount hold? Just kindly ask us the next time you want to actually make money off the Aviva fixture.

    We have to spread the love.You last year Pats this year.
    Made money today , thankfully , but yes, if it was Rovers we could have matched last years very significant profit.
    Hopefully we do it again next year or that the Presidents cup is played there?
    Having an LOI occasion in February in D4 should be annual fixed event.

    Don’t worry, there will be plenty of crap games with flat atmospheres this season. They’ll just have far less than 21500 there to see it.

    Another profitable occasion for the club and 17000 more people than normal getting to see the game in person. I’d call that a good days work for the club. If that is a negative, I’d wonder what a club would have to do for it to be considered a positive.

    Ah I don't mind the idea myself as I've said before on here. If the Presidents Cup was a bigger event that'd be a good idea. Not sure you'd get a bigger crowd for it than a league game. Probably run the risk of losing money.

    Was it 30% for Pats as well?
