Replying To Fionn:  "The break even attendance for Dublin to rent out the use of Croke Park is 30,000 fans.

At what point in time do the DCB take the decision to stop playing our games there…???
The time is fast approaching.

Parnell Pass season ticket holders will be on the decline and at that stage surely Parnell Park needs to be considered for use by our footballers.

Spot on Fionn. We now need to play in the Neller to take advantage of home support.Croke park I agree was a huge advantage to the Dubs when we had the fans attending but now many have deserted so we need the Neller where the support can drive us on
i googled the advantage of home venue in sport and it says there are three big things.One is pitch familiarity.Two is home crowd support giving the home team extra energy and three is referee unintentional bias swayed by the home supporters.

Now with Dubs lack of support points two and three are gone.
