And so it begins...
Eerily reminiscent of Lucifer Kilcoyne. 'We can't keep investing this much in - look at the (artificially low) attendances. Either more punters come to games or we cash out. Edited by roverstillidie - 30 Jun 2017 at 10:25pm |

The statement came out before the third goal and I'd switched off by then
When Towell scored one of the best goals of the last few years in the 8-1 I was turned around chatting to the lad behind me, I've no luck against ye! Edited by nvidic - 01 Jul 2017 at 8:12am |

Marketing from the club is awful.
Small town reality when realistically Bray Wanderers should be targeting fans from as far north as Dun Laoghaire and as far south as Carlow, Gorey etc. It's a club on the DART line, with bus links galore and is less than 20km from Dublin City centre. There's easily 300k people in the South Dublin / North Wicklow urban area that the club should be targeting as potential fans. You could argue that Cabinteely and UCD are too close but both of those teams are in the First Division, and as far as Dublin clubs go, have the smallest fan bases and arguablly the least history. Then again, poor marketing isn't a trait just possessed by Bray, but by much of the league. |

The fai licensing committee approved Brays budget at the start of the season as they did Athlone so big questions to be answered there.
As for marketing and promotion the clubs are the only ones doing this bar a few posters stuck on random bus shelters and a load of inflatables hawked around the country. Jd was on about the €20m they spend on grassroots football I'd love to know how much is being spent on the loi bar the €5k voucher for 5 year plans for 18 teams. |

Owner is losing a lot of money and is pulling out. The attendances aren't high enough for whatever reason. O'Connor spent money that isn't his like it grows on trees. What happens from now on remains to be seen but will come out soon enough I'd say. Most players will probably jump ship.

Some clubs unfortunately will never have a fan base.

Bray players been told they're free to talk to other clubs as only enough money left for next week.
The only people I feel sorry for are the bray supporters I've no sympathy for the players being stupid enough to go to bray for an extra hundred a week over clubs with a long reputation of paying players. |

I called this at the start of the season as did many many others, the same with athlone. If sh*te talkers like me or a lot of people on this forum see it coming, how didn't Fran Gavin?
