    The Club Needs The Shed Back

    It seems to me that loads of the shed regulars are not back this season. They could be scattered around the ground, but they sure as anything are not part of the all singing all scarf waving support at the west end of Derrynane.
    The atmosphere at games has suffered because of this, in my opinion. The club is losing something valuable and important as a result.
    If it is not too late, the design for the new east stand should be altered to include at least some standing room, directly behind and maybe slightly above the goal. Standing room for about 750 should be enough.

    You may have noticed that if you don't sit on seats this actually creates stadning room.

    CCFC have no control over the building of the shed stand. Talk to the MFA.

    BTW building due to start in coming weeks.

    FPB .... MFA .... Simple as that .... nothing to do with CCFC
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    I hear ya .... at least there are hundreds standing next to ya who think the exact same thing. It might look bad now but tt wont be long ..... and its progression so we just have to grin and bear it for now.

    The whole point of the new stand is to have it all seater, think of the CL...

    There will be no 'terrace' as such. No-one's going to make you sit down.
