What kind of numbers will UCD have as a home crowd this year ? My mate plays for them so i've caught a few games over the years. I'm gonna try my best to catch a few this year again.

In the last season in the premier our average was about 700 to 750. That's an average though, including the big gates the dublin clubs bring. Crowds can drop to about 5-600 for games against provincial clubs. -
They werent all home supporters were they ?"it takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen."Comment

The best way to judge home support is to check the crowd against a far away club like Finn Harps. I'd say about 5-600 will be right.Comment

We'll have a couple of hundred with us to Belfield i'd imagine. We have a fair few supporters in the capital and our travelling support will be increased this seasonOriginally posted by Bald StudentFinn Harps Dot Com

Ok then just so you Harps fans don't feel bad might I point out that Bray is also a good indicator of home support as they generally don't bring many to Belfield.Check out my new sports blog http://www.action81.comComment

The point is though that you won't have the majority of the crowd which will make it easier to tell how many home fans there are.Originally posted by harpskidWe're not arrogant, we're just better.Comment

O.K. Sorry, No offence intended. I only picked Harps because it's far away.Originally posted by harpskid
To get back to the oroginal question about numbers. I'll still say 5-600.Comment

Wasn't last year but that's probably down to being in the first division. Who's your friend that plays for us BTW?Originally posted by GK for the TownWe're not arrogant, we're just better.Comment

In fairness, Bray was our biggest crowd by some distance in the league last season - 150 more than anyone else. Waterford or Derry would be our lowest crowds, with Cork not much better.Originally posted by Aberdonian Stu
Was the Rocketman around in the last year in the Premier? Haven't noticed him too much since the switch to summer soccer, really.Comment

Well compared to the Dublin clubs we wouldnt bring that many, but it's nearly always bewtween 50-100Originally posted by Aberdonian StuComment

As i had a cousin who played for ucd a few seasons back i used to go ou to see them when i could, and still have a bit of a soft spot for them so have seen quite a bit of Robbie Martin over the past few seasons.
Best word to describe him is inconsistant, he seems like a real confidence player and when things are going his way he is superb, but when its the other way around he's head drops. Lighting fast with good skill as wellComment

I reckon a good indicator of our core support as in those who will go no matter what and it wouldn't really drop below is abut 150. That was the amount who turned up to the Limerick game at the end of last season in the darkness and ****ing rain against very poor opposition.Comment
