    Last match on the horrible plastic pitch at the Brandywell tonight. It's a pity Drogs fans are banned, they could launch all the flares they like onto it after FT.
    Our next home match after this will be over a month away, 23rd April in Celtic Park. First match back at the Brandywell is late June, all going well.

    Arrangements for Celtic Park seem to be that season ticket holders will be in the main stand, with non-season ticket holders and away fans on the terraces. It's a great view from the main terrace for GAA, but it is uncovered.

    Be curious to see if Derry's time in Celtic Park improves their home attendances!

    Be curious as to why moving a few hundred yards down the street would improve their home attendances. Thank they averaged just under 3.5k last season

    Not attendance related necessary but there seems to be a lot of apathy towards Lynch. I don't think he's helped himself in the media, he comes across quite arrogant at times. One comment I saw being churned out by several Derry fans online after Friday night was about how he's giving the players another weekend off so he can focus on his real job up north. Am I right that people are referring to his punditry work up there or am I missing something else?

    The Brandywell holds approx 6k but away fan numbers are very low due to safety and segregation. Their overall attendances seem to be similar this year. The only room for growth in their time at the GAA ground will be increased away fans. I believe they play Bohs, Rovers, Pats and Shels so there is opportunity if they can be safely segregated,but the numbers won't be huge.

    Just don't see their attendance figure rising by any significant margin considering few they are generally in the top 5 on attendances records, also I think a lot of fans have been put of travelling to Derry the actions of a small group(s) damaging cars and buses in and around the grounds.
