Only 292 were at it! Thats an absolute disgrace.
It's hilarious aswell
Jebus wept, they seriously just went through the motions there tonight, even Hoggie who normally is fairly diligent and gets on with it was not putting in the effort. Good to see guys like Darragh Ryan, Darren Murphy and Colin O'Brien but should have played the whole reserves team imo, at least guys that would give a toss about having a good game
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.

I was surprised to see the full cork team out tonight against what is a severly weakened Limerick team with several key players out injured. 292 seems high for the attendance and i thought the cork supporters singing "whats it like to see a crowd" made me laugh. But Cork were streets ahead tonight and yea €15 was steep with no student rate either which i thought was harsh
My personal opinon, it you support a team on a Friday and for other Leagues games with about 3500+, surely only the true fans show up for these games in the League Cup regardless of a Champions League Semi and weather. So if Cork end up playing in a Group Stage in the CL on a Tuesday with bad weather, I suppose just under 300 show up.
So the league cup is comparable in prestige with the CL group stages?
There are plenty of factors why people didnt go last night, the CL was one for a lot of poeple.
Cost was another-especially for families.
But the main one was that it was the League Cup.
Had it been a league game there wouldnt have been less than 1500, regardless of the CL.
A lot of City fans dont bother going to Munster Senior Cup games either, does that mean they're not real fans?
As I said in another thread...not everyone can be a 'superfan'.
I understand what you say 100%, but is it true to say, that one should allows support their team whatever the competition, how can a fan support you in the league and not in the cup, that is generally what I am saying.
Sorry, there is a thread on another forum where this is mentioned. Local newspaper made out that it would be all reserve players, which their were a few but they choose to be anonymous throughout the game, bar Darren Murphy who was the only one that on last night performance would stand him in good stead to make the first team.
