Standard of grounds isn't acceptable for kids either. Brought young lad to his first match a few weeks and had to tell him to go for a sh*te before going to match as jacks are disgusting in United park (don't mind myself, but for kids, women, etc)
This is a massive issue and its putting people off. LOI clubs are up against it as it is without asking for E50+ off families so their wives and children can wade through 3 foot of piss.

3014 at Cork City U19s against Roma U19 on a Wednesday (Champions League night)  , More than the entire yearly Athlone attendance , Great night and City were unlucky not to get at least a draw  Clap

One of the best games Iv ever seen at the Cross, 3-1 really flattered Roma, City were all over them for 80 minutes.

"FAI boss reveals change in League of Ireland schedule and lays out new marketing plan
it has been revealed that the campaign will begin at an earlier date of Friday, 24 February next year.

The President’s Cup between Dundalk and Cork City is set to be played prior to that, although no date has been confirmed.

The mid-season break, which will run from 3 June to 15 June, is also one week shorter, while the FAI Cup will only have replays from the quarter-finals onwards"

Not much help to boost attendances but its a welcome change

Mid season break is during the weeks of 2 internationals. Heaven forbid if some Austrian fans fancy taking in a LOI game and boosting the coffers of the home club during their visit to Dublin. FAI a shower of self serving ****s.
