QuoteCan't see how they would be. I would imagine they pay very little, if anything, on wages and they were getting decent enough crowds at their games.
Some on here suggesting they are about to pull out of the league.
Is this gossip or are there facts to back it up.
Hope not because Eddie Gormleys a decent man.

Haven't crowds dropped dramatically for them?Originally Posted by ATFC-1887
Wages I'd imagine wouldn't be a huge cost for them but even outside of that you are probably talking €200,000 to run the team at a guess. A lot of money for a team stepping up. I reckon they said give it a year and we see if it's sustainable.
Far as I'm aware, it's a load of rubbish and they're in it for the long haul. They've a solid base to build on, but they really need to either improve spectator facilities at Stradbrook or have their own ground built.

I haven't seen anything even semi concrete to indicate they're in trouble or considering pulling out.

The only reason they're in the league is to have an under 17s and under 19s team at the top level. That's only started now so they're in the league for another few years anyway

I was going to start a new thread but ye have saved me the bother! I have never seen their ground. If I was to take public transport from city centre how do you get to Stradbrook? I wont see a game but curious to see where pitch is that is all!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
This won't help.

Marty, Closest bus would be the 46a would drop you less than 10 minutes from the ground. Get off as close to Bakers corner as you can. 4 would drop you about 10 minutes away. Dart would be a good 30 minute walk
4 goes closer I'm fairly sure.
15 minute brisk walk from Blackrock dart station...
Seapoint or Salthill + Monkstown are closer.

I got the Dart when there for LC game over Easter. Nice walk to station if weather is dry and there is something great about taking the train to go to a soccer match.
Grand, I now know how to get to their buckin gaff, but will they be there for me to go and see next season.

So you're saying they're only here to get to the kids?
Keep the kids. Important enough distinction.

4 leaves you about 3 mins walk from ground
45 also another option.
Lets talk about six baby
It would be, if it hadn't been scrapped a few years back.
