Attendances

[GalwayFrancis]

galway's home attendences have been quite reasonable (for a 1st division team)....
the kilkenny game had about 700-1000, but i wasnt able to make the limerick game, so i dont know about that one...if anyone would like to tell us, that would be great :D

I'd say that because of your season ticket vouchers give it 5 or 6 games and you will be back to your sh!t crowds of 400ish :p

[GalwayFrancis]

well TheRealRovers, what have Shhligo's attendences been so far this season? :confused:

[wws]

No way was there 6000 there. Stand full = 1800, Camac full on both sides of the gantry but not impossibly jointed = about the same again, say 500ish between the Shed and the turnstile end. Call it 4250 in round numbers


or call it 3500 cos thats what it was, was down the club last nite talkin to the event staff

[pineapple stu]

5140 for Bohs - Shels on the Bohs messageboard.

[drummerboy]

Decent crowd in Dalymount last night despite weather. Anyone know what official figure was?

[Macy]

Re.this thread apart from the rugby,Celtic Lge.& GAA @ Croker,the only accurate counts re.crowds in Irish sport,seem to be c/o.Pineapple Stu' & d'Bohs Forum....respect to both.

Sure seen' exact ' crowds for figs.for Leopardstown.....?
:rolleyes: WUM.

[A face]

:rolleyes: WUM.


I agree !!

[TheRealRovers]

well TheRealRovers, what have Shhligo's attendences been so far this season? :confused:
Only one game at home yet 1200 at it. last season our ave. was just over 1000 and we finnished 6th if we won the league we would be getting 4000 to 5000 just like 1994

WUM-Wind Up Merchant

I'd have gone for WAT- What A Tosser.

WWS-Fair play.

[Dr.Nightdub]

About 700 max in Tolka tonight for Continuity Home Farm v Pats. Bizarre being at an away match where there's absolutely no point singing "**** team, no fans" cos there was no CHF fans there to hear it. Or maybe they've adopted a sneaky tactic of sitting away from each other so as not to draw attention and invite a slagging.

[SPXcyan]

Do anyone here know the ave attendance at the rsc these days??

my guess its around....lets say 3000 god thats rubbish

Go on the Blues

I'd be surprised if there were 700 there, seemed closer to 500. We brought more to Richmond Park for the cup game last year than showed up last night. Most of our fans were in the, ahem, director's area.

With any kind of significant vocal support we probably would have racked up the cricket score our play deserved.

[Dodge]

Yeah at most 500 at the game. Worst crowd I've ever seen (non Harolds Cross talking anyway...) No more than 30 home fans.

Depressing night all round. Dublin City are the worse team I've ever seen but still could've beat us handily if Adamson wasn't so damn good

[TommyT]

ALICC(see below!)......you still counting in units of 10,then......SE!


That should be ''estimating'' in units of 10. I think you'll find it's quite common.

[Macy]

va va wum...

[TommyT]

Well,who knows....or cares.....This is the 21st Century....If they can do in Rugby,GAA & racing...they can use an electronic counting system in the EL/IL(Down to sheer idleness/Incompetence!)...they use this in the Lge.Of Wales & Scots.lower division,which are of comparable size or worse!

You get a no.of PC EL fans raving about how people should support their local sides....I hope they do.....what credibility does Irish soccer have,IF they can't even count their crowds Accurately....FFS!

Know Shams./Longford obviously embarassed by their crowds......but not counting properly,is hardly going to make their problems go away.....Muppets! ALICC!

Wha ???

HTF is it my fault the attendences aren't published ?

Fool.

[pineapple stu]

600 for Dwogs-Dewwy - Dwogs message boawd (http://drogs.irishfootie.net/viewtopic.php?t=1349)

Or should we guesstimate that at 629 to keep Davros happy?

[pineapple stu]

Would examine yer choice of team supported & see who is the wiser.....

:confused: :confused:

Your better than him because your team releases attendances?

Davros, there aren't any official attendances published yet. Nothing we can do about it. In the meantime, for the sake of interest, we have to go by guesstimates, which mayn't be accurate, but certainly aren't random. If you would like to come to a game and count the attendance, by all means do so. In the meantime, please make it easier for me to ignore your contribution to this thread... :rolleyes:

[pineapple stu]

Averages (based on guesstimates, for the irritatingly stubborn among us) after the midweek games -

PREMIER DIVISION

Cork 6000 (missing Waterford)
Derry 2300 (missing Rovers)
Drogheda 1200
Dublin City 500
Longord 1550
Pat's 2750
Shels 3500 (missing Drogheda)
Rovers 1100
Waterford 1700 (missing Dublin City)

FIRST DIVISION
Athlone 400 (missing Kilkenny)
Bray 1200
Cobh --- (missing Bray)
Dundalk 1100
Harps 800
Galway 750 (missing Limerick)
Kildare 150 (missing Cobh)
Kilkenny --- (missing Harps)
Limerick --- (missing Dundalk)
Monaghan --- (missing Kildare)
Sligo 1200
UCD 300

The final attendance I put in is the first available of -
a) official attendance
b) the guesstimate which appears best thought-out
c) attendances which are agreed in press, etc.
d) the lowest guesstimate posted.

Anyone know anything on the gaps?

edit - Rovers v. Longford around 500 - Rovers forum (http://www.srfcultras.com/showthread.php?threadid=5116)

[TommyT]

Would examine yer choice of team supported & see who is the wiser..... :D


As I said ALICC! :)


Eh who do you support, it's not obvious from your avatar ?

The FAI the ones not publishing the attendences :rolleyes:

[dortie]

Derry V Rovers match..........slightly less than $hels game........still easy to estimate though...2,100

Id say 150-200 empty seats

[Countyman]

County attendences ...very easy

Limerick home - 175

Cobh home - 200

[Suetrol Ned]

. . . 2300 at Shels-Drogheda

[pineapple stu]

236 at UCD-Galway, thanks to changing kick-off and not telling anyone! :mad: :mad:

Iirsh Examiner still had the time down as 7:45.

[pineapple stu]

TT,If I supported any current EL club,I'd be embarrassed than they can count the small crowds in Scotland,Wales & er,the Czech Republic more accurately.....

They can count them - they just don't bother releasing them.


PS blames the FAI,who frankly are also embarrassing.....
Well duhhh! :D

[Slash/ED]

Roughly 2000 at the Shels Dubs match I'd say. We'll call it 1999 then.

[Sheridan]

Dublin City site says 1200.

[Slash/ED]

Would have thought higher, RTE Radio had it at around 2,000 aswell.

[pineapple stu]

Fair to split the difference, call it 1600? Try and err on the side of caution, so at least we have minimum figures.

Waterford-Longford was 2700 per the Examiner today.

[Sheridan]

Dublin City's official site is very closely associated with the club, and generally carries conservative crowd estimates (which suggests to me that they've seen the official figures.) Given the club's relatively close ties with Shelbourne, this may be the case here also. Still, 1600 looked about right to me.

[Slash/ED]

1,600 seems a decent figure alright if we're eering on the side of caution. Sheridan as a matter of interest about how full was the Drumcondra end stand? I was in the middle of it and it's always hard to judge how full a stand your in is. I'm guessing you were in the Riverside?

Yeah, didn't glance at it too often (although I heard "It's just like watching Home Farm" loud and clear), but it looked about 70% full to me. Could be miles out, though.

[TheRealRovers]

1,200 at Rovers vs Athlone last night according to www.sligorovers.com not too bad considering we lost 4-0 to bray last week

[corkharps]

Approx 201 at Limerick V Harps.

About 100 Bohs fans.

[Dr.Nightdub]

Pats v Cork about 2500. 200 Pats fans and an UNBELIEVABLE number of travelling Cork fans. :)

[patsh]

Pats v Cork about 2500. :)
Really?
What are the attendance amounts for each area of the ground?
I would have thought there were more people in the ground than that figure.

I would have thought less myself :confused:

[Dr.Nightdub]

OK, maybe 2500 is a bit high. The stand holds 1800, it was around 2/3 full = 1200. The top part of the Camac had a bit under half that in the first half, say 500, so I'm assuming there was less beyond the gantry. Say 300 between there and at the turnstile end. 2000 total.

[corkharps]

Harps v Cobh,approx 1,000.

[adamcarr]

6500-7500 at the City - Shels match

[Countyman]

County v Dundalk ...around 450

[pineapple stu]

6500-7500 at the City - Shels match

What about the Waterford game, do you know?

Going to put a few posts on some other messageboards too and see if we can get a few more of the gaps filled.

[patsh]

What about the Waterford game, do you know?

Between 3,500 - 4,000.
Good few Waterford fans - about 300 - 350?

I think 16,500 in total for the 3 City home games

[pineapple stu]

434 for Athlone v. Kilkenny; 390 for Athlone v. Monaghan, per their forum.

[Éanna]

Pats v Cork about 2500. 200 Pats fans and an UNBELIEVABLE number of travelling Cork fans. :)
i wouldn have thought it was less than 1500 and about 150 of those were city fans
