Wexford youths maybe? Big improvement from them this year and i was very impressed when i saw them. Their doing everything right and maybe they might make a really strong push for prommotion in the next season or 2
thats if wallace can afford to start turning players semi-pro or pro??

Good shout. Hopefully they could get into the playoffs possible.

Its starting to get really tired at this stage. God I wish there was a yawn icon:rolleyes:

The play-off will treated like a cup game with all free lists being suspended :)

Everyone has to pay in. The gate money is split 60-40 in favour of the home team

All down to Shams, really, helped by the 10 team division cutting out three clubs with smaller attendances last year. The league average is down, way down if you exclude Shams' big Tallaght adventure from the figures. Bumper final day crowds might do something for it, but I doubt it.

Didnt hear the official attendance last night but Id say 1400 max. First time since I started supporting city, 2004, that I remember less than 4000 for the last home league game.

Well done Tommy.

I don't think you even had half of that at your last home game of last season. ;)

About 2900 against Bohs last night.

Main stand holds 2700 afaik. Was almost full. Good few more scattered around the Des Kelly and it looked jammed in the Bohs singing section.

Derry V Bray 2,080

Appears remarkable low considering (1) final home game (2) in contention for Europe, and (3) obvious financial problems

Or is it low because of apathy surrounding the latter? Opinions please, Derry fans

Official attendance was announced as 1800 and something. Didn't seem that big but I was sitting in a different spot from last week so hard to compare

Biggest crowd of the season in Terryland tonight, 1882 was called out at the game, big crowd up from Cork too

Seemed like more though, it would have been 2000+ imo

fionnsci

06/11/2009, 10:35 PM

A good 3700 in Richmond Park tonight I'd say....and that's being conservative. By far the biggest of the season.

superfrank

06/11/2009, 10:39 PM

Our biggest crowd also. I guess 3500.

Jesus I wouldn't have thought your ground holds that many (two small stands, no more than a 1,000 each I'd say). Anyway, you know better. That's gotta be a good 5 times your average.

superfrank

06/11/2009, 10:57 PM

Only proper stand was packed so that's 950 (or something like that). A bit more around the ground so that'd be 1100. Then the uncovered seats were packed.

Actually, now that I think about it, it was probably only 3000, tops. :o

Da Real Rover

07/11/2009, 9:53 AM

I would say around 2000 against Drogheda.
Main stand was nearly completely full so around 1500.
About 300-400 then in the Jinks.
And between the Railway End and the Shed End about 100.

The main stand fits 1850, 50 or so empty seats last night. It was well over the 2,000 mark.

Well over 2,000 DRR, would have thought there was 2,500 at it at least. Good crowd for such a terrible evening.

So are general attendances up or down then ?

I'd like to say down, but with the Rovers factor and all that it could actually be up ??

221 at Fingal V Athlone
30-35 from Athlone

Between 1,900 and 2,000 at Dlk v Derry`s final premier div game (for a while)

Fair play to them, they had 100+ at the game

Their fans will be badly missed around the grounds.

LeixlipRed

07/11/2009, 9:54 PM

I'd say maybe 350 at Station Road tonight. 95% Shels fans of course.

They are up 17% up according to the figures for the Premier Division published yesterday, presumably as you say because of Rovers moving to Tallaght

Stu, you've updated the Pat's attendances with official figure throughout the year. Any chance of a list just out of curiosity?

Very very poor considering how much you have coming up.

Well down, even before Rovers.

550 at UCD v Waterford was my guess.

Just leave it man, we all know at this stage that Fingal's attendances are a joke, no need to remind us every 2nd week when an attendance from their home match is posted up.

UCD's return to the Premier and Derry City's expulsion will bring the average down again in 2010.

The overall figures are slightly down. Given Shams have given the league a boost, that's a disaster. Derry's demise and any likely outcome for Cork means that we're looking at a big fall next year.

Missed this in my drunken 4am haze. :)

Figures I have for Pat's are half and half official/guesstimates at this stage; they were official to start out with.

I have -

v Bohs 1 - 2600
v Bohs 2 - nothing yet
v Bray 1 - 1500
v Bray 2 - 1500
v Cork 1 - 1175
v Cork 2 - 1234
v Derry 1 - 1217
v Derry 2 - nothing yet
v Drogheda 1 - 1498
v Drogheda 2 - 1100
v Dundalk 1 - 2233
v Dundalk 2 - 1156
v Galway 1 - 2225
v Galway 2 - 1138
v Rovers 1 - 2500
v Rovers 2 - 3700
v Sligo 1 - 1600
v Sligo 2 - nothing yet

Probably should have de-bolded Pat's a while back really.

Good crowd in Drogheda. I'd guess around 1800.

decent crowd alright. Tho more around the 2,000 mark I would have said, maybe more

I'd say the home crowd will stay fairly similar, there doesn't seem to be a lot of floating support. We'll be hit hard by the lack of big travelling support from teams like Shams, Bohs, and Pats though.

I'd say Shels would bring a fair few would they?

Maybe Waterford aswell ?

Jaysus for a while during the 2008 season we were getting monster crowds so we were, ie. the run of 1-0 wins if ye can remember

Usual story with most teams. People will only follow winning teams.
