2015 attendances

[patrickccfc]

Attendance was 2142 tonight, not too bad really

[Longfordian]

When marketed properly JP's bus does be a great success, for the league winning game last season it took 3 runs to get everyone to the ground.
It's a good idea for them as they can draw in anyone interested in pre game boozing.

[PartySaint]

2591 in Richmond tonight for a fairly poor game

How dare ye out-attendance us

That's almost 5k in 3 days, not an easy task getting fans to come out twice in a short space of time. It will be interesting to compare these to your next Friday match.

Edit: just seen that's v Rovers!

Yeah it's never easy getting people to go to two games in 3 days. We always get a healthy attendance against rovers so I'd say quite a few will skip the QF against pats on Tuesday

Did you sack your marketing manager and replace him with a marketing manager from Dublin?

[JC_GUFC]

If anyone is able to correct estimates with official attendances from Longford, Derry, Drogheda and Wexford that'd be most helpful.

Was in the Brandywell and the 1000 estimate sounds low to me - I'd have thought more like 1500. Heard nothing official though.

Our marketing volunteers you mean?

Saatchi and Saatchi couldn't sell a wet Monday night figture against the Drogs three days after the last home game.

[oriel]

Cant imagine there would have been too many Drogs down on a Mon night either, actually that was very decent of them to accommodate Cork on a Mon night agreeing to bring the game forward from June, when they had nothing to gain. mmmmmmm

Drogs moved a match from July to June because of Europe last year for us aswell. We hammered them 6-0 in the end.

Especially with an away trip to Sligo in a few days. The Drogheda management are asking a lot from their players.

They can now give the players time off in July to make up for it, players might have prefered that

[jinxy lilywhite]

also the drogs aren't losing a home gate

Well it was going to have to be re-arranged anyway because of Europe so Drogheda probably felt a Monday in May was a better bet than a Monday in late August/September. Other clubs have agreed to similar requests from clubs recently. It's definitely preferable for all to have the games early as the longer they leave it, the more complications can arise

[White Horse]

3,106 at Oriel Park tonight.

[wonder88]

I think I heard 1116 at Deacy Park for visit of Bohs for a mighty exciting game. The Ryan Connolly goal was good, classy finish to great move.

[Olander]

Official attendance was 1,106 at Eamonn Deacy Park.

I would've hoped for 1,400 or 1,500 heading into the game. That figure is honestly a huge disappointment and it's a huge letdown for the club. We're playing really good stuff at the minute and we're getting results and those numbers just won't cut it. That was our lowest attendance of the season in the league I think. Very disheartened by the attendance.

If Galway keep playing an attractive style of football and market it to the people of Galway, attendances are bound to rise.

[Battery Rover]

Athlone Town vs Shelbourne 271

[sulywaterfordfc]

Waterford United - Cabinteely: 585.

Biggest crowd of the season I think. Very good attendance considering we hadn't won a home since last October. Along with been bottom of the table and with just one win this season plus Cabinteely wouldn't be much of a crowd puller either.

[nigel-harps1954]

Around 400 at most in Cobh. Around 20 Harps fans.

[Dunny]

Lims/Cork 605 official
Sligo/Drogs 1048 official

[White Horse]

Lims/Cork 605 official


Did Cork not look for (and get) 750 tickets?

[outspoken]

Some awful attendances there

[Comic Book Guy]

Around 400 at most in Cobh. Around 20 Harps fans.
Spot on, would have put it at 400 too

[D24Saint]

Around 900 in Bray Id say.

[El-Pietro]

Did Cork not look for (and get) 750 tickets?

Limerick sent tickets, City did not ask for them. Limerick also said that tickets would not be available to purchase for away fans in Limerick though they changed their minds about that.

We had about 300 there. About 30 gardai in the ground too for some reason.

[White Horse]

Overtime?

[outspoken]

Overtime?

We had 3 guards for 8 away fans when we visited turners. Never felt safer 😂

[nigel-harps1954]

We had about 40 kids telling us "Finn Harps are gay" amongst other wonderful and colourful shouts last night..does that count?

Well, you have been fabulous this season.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

1,048 in The Showgrounds

[Charlie Darwin]

Overtime?
It's always overtime. Tallaght was crawling with guards when Dundalk were over. Cue everybody walking past bemused while Dundalk were penned in for half an hour.

[Bray Head]

Around 900 in Bray Id say.

Heard it was just under the 1000 mark. Can't remember exact figure but think I heard someone say around 970.
Extratime has 1000.

[El-Pietro]

Oddly enough Limerick announced that they would be holding the home fans in after the game until the City fans had left, then they opened the gate holding Limerick fans in as the bulk of the City fans were leaving.

[nigel-harps1954]

I thought there was a lot more in Tallaght, we brought roughly 100 ourselves, that's a very low attendance for Rovers.

[dundalkfc10]

Oddly enough Limerick announced that they would be holding the home fans in after the game until the City fans had left, then they opened the gate holding Limerick fans in as the bulk of the City fans were leaving.

Drogheda do the oppoiste with us. Keep us back till all Drogheda fans leave, and just as they are walking past the away entrance (the ones not going into town that is) they let us out, its laughable whoever comes up with it!

[The Donie Forde]

Dundalk pulling very good crowds, to be fair.

[nigel-harps1954]

Harps v UCD - 1,105

[nigel-harps1954]

Cork v Rovers - 4,138
Shels v Waterford - 651

[seand]

Harps v UCD - 1,105

good stuff, when UCD are in town

[nigel-harps1954]

good stuff, when UCD are in town

The large away following obviously bumped it up a bit.

[Nesta99]

Harps v UCD - 1,105

So Harps 1100 including UCD players and staff! Solid and will get better as promotion beckons.

[Dunny]

There wasn't 500 in the ground at 7.45 @ the Pats v Dundalk game then BANGGG! Ten minutes in 5x more #pints ;)
