    this is where a lot of people have conflictin opinions.. in the old flancare the record I would guess was 4500-5000 at ltfc pats cup match in 2000/01 season.. since the seats were put up the record attendance was 4500 people at the league cup final against bohs in 2004.. i do stand corrected though..
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Wasn't that big - full stand, half full section O side from memory. Wouldn't be that surprised if it didn't even reach 3000. Certainly not a record attendance.

    You can't totally forget Camarthen - the home game was a good win. Just try and forget the second leg!

    I have a picture of the refs and captains and it seems very full behind them... around section o. I can't remember much of the games or anything just from the picture!

    Somewhere between 2,500-3,000 was what I heard at the time alright. There was some complaining about ticket price from recollection

    We were displaced a bit towards the corner. Idiot FAI Stewards/ Crowd controller insisted we sit down as well.

    There was a fairly big jump in price alright, which was used as an excuse by some, and I'd have probably brought into that at the time myself. Nowadays I'd just file it in the same old same old excuse bin.

    Waterford made sure to get any money that might have possibly been miscalculated back when selling us Kirby and Reynolds that summer. Though £10k, that's what I think it was, turned out good value for Kirbs alone. Those were the days. Speaking of those games you were a media star for a short while sorbo, you must have fond memories of that time?!.

    God, that's very close to ten years ago.

    I have fond memories of the hair that formed an important part of the look i was going for that day if nothing else..

    We've all passed a lot of water under the bridge since then as the fella says.

    Your way out. We brought around 1000 to Waterford for first game, and the replay, on a weekday night had people there who were never there since. I'd say that was the biggest I ever saw in Flancare, with Bohs league cup next up, followed by Pats game. Although the Pats game, was that the cup, or was that the game we had to get a point to get into play off, Sturat Holt thunderbolt? What about first leg v Finn Harps in play off? I'd say the first two were the only ones over the 4,000 mark.

  21. Thanks From:
