    Yup, in the Derrynane side, same as last year. It will be the same entrance as well. There was meant to be new toilets and shops etc going in but not there yet so all that is the same as last year as well.
    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.

    Stupid really this.
    Should give them a quarter of St.annes that way they are right next to their exit,toilet,shop.Also better for t.v if they were up there and both singing sections home and away would be facing each other

    But its better to have the best seats for home fans though i would have thought.

    Its irrelvant if the stadium is full or not. What's the point blacking off 700 of the best seats in the house for 50-100 fans.

    Now that its covered I can see a fair few City fans wanting to sit there because of the view. The away fans can stay where they are in a smaller section easier to block off

    Are you for real? We'd love to be back in a real shed

    Given that we were in the Connaught St end at Bohs last year, and the away fans area in Derry where you're a good 5 miles from the pitch at the weirdest angle(you think the balls going in and its actually at the half way line) your shed would be top class in comparison.

    No problem with putting away fans where they are now but there should at least be some sort of toilet facilities that side of ground

    No,they have no plans for it anyway as far as i know.I was in the shed on Friday for the pats match and the Commandos 84 did their display there.For security reason it would'nt happen i'd say with the away fans based in the end of the derrynane stand.

    Will they be allowed sing ?
    I presume the stewards will have something along the lines of a 2 block segregation "just incase"

    No singing, we are going to gag them all comin in the gate......

    They will be placed in the block nearest the Derrynane Road Stand with the block next to them empty...the middle block at the 2 blocks nearer the DF Stand will be open to City supporters then...

    To be fair now you can not be sure of that if it was all open a lot of people would tend to go there including myself as they are sick of the shed.

    Then you get random people who stand by floodlights in the rain
