Friday Night Games

**rambler14** · 23/11/2007, 7:12 PM

What a disaster all our home games are on friday nights next year! When Rams are at home City are away. Shocking decison by the club in my opinion. Crowd numbers will be severely affected.

I doubt it will affect us that much what are you basing this on,a lot of ppl wont come sat nights coz that seems to reserved for down town,it will give ppl an option on a friday also think the city fans wiil still come in numbers.On top of that next season the lounge will be booked most if not every sat night so they dont have to be pushing ppl into an already crowded bar.One thing it certainly will affect is away support they just dont travel on fridays and we are long haul for most supporters.Time will tell but they could have asked the fans first??

not a good idea in my opinion..

It will massively lessen the amount of away fans who travel.

why was this decided on? and when? should we have a say?

How do we know this already?

Id hoped ye'd say on Saturdays so I'd come to a few of ye're games but my Fridays will be spent travelling or glued to the internet updates

**Rambler1** · 25/11/2007, 9:26 AM

Fridays not a good idea. Will miss loads of them so

**A face** · 25/11/2007, 1:49 PM

It will definitely affect numbers at games on all counts. What a shame? I know that i would have gone to at least 10 games if they were on Saturday. With City being away i cant see that happening.

Thats not concete yet lads,fact,wait and see,lets stop the rumour monger now b4 it goes into overdrive....

**Rambler1** · 26/11/2007, 12:20 PM

Its not definate yet.Committee will discuss it at meeting during the week.

**thegafferman** · 26/11/2007, 3:35 PM

the FAI in their wisdom have asked that all premiere games be played on friday nights and first division on sats....due to some tv deal that is in the pipeline..... however it is still up to each individual club to decide what night they will play ....tv coverage would prob be only two or three times in the season so you would know these well in advance..... it will be better for cork football if ouselves and city dont clash

We should have our homes games saturday night, and if we are asked to be on television change to friday that weekend.

Its a cunning plan m'lord ..and it might even work

**MojoPin** · 26/11/2007, 6:26 PM

has to be sat nights like..... only way forward

**Rams-07** · 27/11/2007, 11:56 AM

Think the general opinion of people I`ve spoken to over the weekend was Saturday night football is a must next season.From a financial point of view it will make for bigger gates as you will have more travelling supporters on a Sat night than a Fri night.If we are lucky to be live on TV there shouldnt be a problem changing to Fri night.Hopefully common sense will prevail

For the new season in the Premier League Cobh Ramblers will play their games on a Saturday night, except for televised games which will be on a Friday. As for tv games everyone must be neatly dressed, no shouting or be caught eating chips when the camera is on you
