if complete :P

Yeah they have started demolition works already as you can see the away end is much smaller the back terrace has been removed, the roof removed and 400 seats removed. 4 months later the Connacht stand which had 2,800 seats closed for the 2011 season and they have started demolition works on this stand. All seats have been removed and they are currently demolishing the concrete structure.

@@dazzer273 Great to see and long may the success on and off the pitch continue.

Thanks mate. More Irish football to come - next video will be in Cork!

Haha, thanks Patrick!

Thanks so much Albert! I’ve got a couple of really good videos coming up in the next two months so I hope you’ll enjoy those too!

It’s been a brilliant turnaround in 12 months, Bohs were so poor in this game last year. Declan Devine has done a great job so far 👏 The new stand for away fans on the Connaught St side looks good too.

Cheers Ern! Yeah top match that and the fans were class. Wild scenes in the Rovers end 😂

Cheers mate! Yeah the weather was belting that day, got lucky on that front 😄

Cheers Aidan! Funny you say about Kilmainham Gaol - that was on my to do list but it was fully booked up, was gutted about that as it looks class. I’ll have to come back for a St.Pats game and do the Gaol too.

Cheers mate!

Tolka Park looks like a proper ground too! I’ve got to get back over this summer for another game 👍

Thanks Phil! Hopefully I can visit Tallaght and a few others in future. I went to the Newcastle vs Everton game a few months back and made a video, absolutely loved St James’.

Newcastle played St Pats a few years ago,won 2-1 and drank the beer supply of the 3 nearest pubs and that aint an urban myth-no hassle between fans either.

Are you talking about the game in 77? That was a UEFA cup game, I was there.

1998

Glad you enjoyed it! I’m hoping to get over to Germany next season and make a video :)

Shelbourne and St Pat's games full of energy too. Some cracking chants too especially Bohs v St Pat's. Bohs chant "Oh Inchicore (oh Inchicore) is full of smack (is full of smack) Oh Inchicore is full of smack. It's full of smack, smack and more smack"😅. The funny thing is St Pats like it so much they chant it themselves at various games 🤣.

Haha, some of the stuff being shouted at the Bohs vs Rovers game was wild 😂 Loved that about Dalymount Park - so intimate, everyone can hear everything. Poor ref & lino got hammered 😂

@@seeyouthen I just had been to a cup fight on local level Wuppertal vs. Essen, both 4th division. 11.743 viewers in the old "Zoostadion". They are big rivals, had better times in the past, but still very loyal fans

@@FootballWeekender Those were irish hares at the airport not rabits and i say irish hare because they are species unique to ireland ,they are on decline but dublin airport is a stronghold for them.

Cheers Fergus! Loved the match, Rovers support was class - looked absolute bedlam in that away end 😂 I definitely want to come back for another game.

Absolute pleasure mate, great 24 hours. Slept well on the Saturday morning yeah 😂

@@FootballWeekender maybe head to Galway here for the big game on May 27th v Cork city . You’ll love the city and the craic 😎

Great shout getting over to Galway, never been before! Great that the leagues run through summer, opportunities for some class weekenders.

Cheers! Hoping there’s some more good ones to come 🙌

Thanks Alan, looking forward to getting back over there soon. Feel like around Dalymount is proper Dublin 💪

@FootballWeekender yes it is in some ways. Closer to working class dublin. Although Phibsborough is being gentrified quickly. House prices are higher than the last years of the Celtic Tiger - 2002 to 2007.

the game is agaisnt sligo rovers in tallaght stadium

I’ve been meaning to make the trip to Tallaght, hopefully I’ll get the chance before the end of the year 👍

Thanks Marvin! I was actually told in advance that the game would be a sellout and it would be difficult to get a ticket. But I follow Bohemians on Instagram and they announced around 2 weeks before the match that a limited number of tickets would be going on general sale on their website. I managed to get a ticket online as soon as they went on sale - it sold out in 3 minutes!

Thanks! Would love to have a look around Croke Park. So much to do in Dublin, I need to come back.

What is it exactly that makes some people want to come on to a football website and start talking about a completely different sport. I really don’t get it.

@@davidpryle3935 Don't know whether you are irish or not,but sports in ireland operate in a competitve environment and football is no different its not like england or scotland where football reigns supreme.

Cheers mate! Yeah the ground and atmosphere is class as it is but if they could get those stands redeveloped the place would be absolutely bouncing. The extra tickets on sale for the derby sold out in 3 minutes so the demand is deffo there!

Dalymount will never be redeveloped. We’ve been listening to that old story now for years

Thanks Baz. I’m heading to Cork City vs Galway Utd on 15th July. Big one at the top of the table!

@@FootballWeekender could decide the title c'mon on city.enjoy

Cheers Craig, much appreciated! 🙏

No limbs for yous this season though 😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@Hayden what was that😂😂😂😂

@@macavelli7585 it’s easy when your the richest club in the league lad

Would be amazing that. If I could get my hands on a ticket I’d love to do a weekend in Glasgow, top city 👍

@@FootballWeekender and if no tickets the Hibs v Hearts in Edinburgh is just as furious and the fans have lots of passion for their club.

Edinburgh even better as I’ve got family there - free bed for the night 😂

I follow Bohs on Instagram and they announced a couple weeks before that a limited number of tickets were going on general sale. I managed to get one before it sold out in 3 minutes 🙌

Ah sorry, my mistake! 🙏

@@FootballWeekender No problem most outside ireland call it gaelic

Haha, in my defence we don’t get many rabbits or hares in Manchester mate, I wouldn’t know the difference even if one came over to shake my hand and introduce itself 😂 Yeah absolutely got plans to be back over there again for another game!

@@FootballWeekender Well you can’t pull a rabbit from your arse lad 😅 haha jokes aside I used to live in Preston and used Manchester airport quite a lot. You’ll see plenty of rabbits along the rail tracks from the airport in Manchester, especially along the more sandy soil banks as easier to dig burrows. Look forward to the next video on Irish Footy 👊🏼🇮🇪

Yeah shame about the 0-0, looks like they saved all the goals up for Athlone 😄 I’m a Liverpool season ticket holder - check out my video from the Champions League Final, I speak about it a bit there if you’re interested!

@@FootballWeekender cool , pool fan myself too , will definitely check that out, I remember watching the European cup final of 81 as an 11 yr old , good memories, cheers mate

Agreed on Temple Bar Gerry, I went there for a token pint and the barman apologised when he told me the price 😂 Tourists seem to enjoy themselves there though so fair enough, it is what it is.

Get a life ffs

You mean UCD don't you? 😄

Think it's been Overated a bit if you ask me probably equivalent to the top non league division in England but not as bigger crowds

Rugby is the only professional sport in ireland and football soccer is only semipro at best ,however rugby at grass roots is by far the weakest sport of the top 4 sports,they are more GAA clubs in cork then Rugby in the whole of ireland.Football is not tiny in dublin its the most popular ,GAA or Rugby wouldn't be bigger than football they get bigger crowds alright but that has a lot to with the population they represent 1.5 for GAA and nearly 3million for leinster rugby whereas dublin is split between 4 clubs and even without PL competition they still would have a much less of a draw than GAA and rugby

Ha haha

It’s a video not a podcast 😂🤡

Sorry Michael, no offence meant. I think PJ said “Would you like me to play you a Gaelic song?” and that’s where I’ve got confused.
