2005 Attendances

[gael353]

There was about 700 at the Limerick-Rovers game on Friday, with about 50 rovers fans.

I think a figure of 1300 was the attendence last Friday.

[pete]

I'd say it was in or around that, probably a little lower, 3000 and change. We'll have the official attendance in a couple of days.

I agree, wouls say 3100 as the extra people in the Des kelly stand woulod probably have filled the gaps in section A although section B was packed.

I think a figure of 1300 was the attendence last Friday.

No way was their near 1,300 at the game unless their were 1,000 in that barn behind the goals :rolleyes: I'd say 700 max I'll post photos of the crowd later

[Slash/ED]

In the star they guessed 2,800 at the shels rovers match

I'd have guessed more than that, hopefully we'll get an official figure.

[anto eile]

id say 2500 max at Rovers 2-1 shels

[pineapple stu]

The figure I heard was approx 800.Reasons, Donegal rally,Geehaha match in Clones,Summer football. Ohh I forgot to mention that we only won 1 game so far all season! :rolleyes:
Will up it to 800 so; think that was mentioned later in the thread too. And at least it's now two wins all season! ;)

Was there not an official figure announced for the Limerick game? Usually is.

[bohs til i die]

I'd say it was in or around that, probably a little lower, 3000 and change. We'll have the official attendance in a couple of days.

Wont have an exact figure but there was about 3300 at Bohs v Gent.

Judging by the TV pictures, I would have said somewhere between 3200-3500 at Shels-Rovers.

[Slash/ED]

Did you get an offical figure for the Shels game? No way was it only 2,500 there imo.

[monutdfc]

poor crowd, even for us, versus Athlone on Sunday. Thrashing by Dundalk the previous week and gaa in Clones didn't help. 120 at best I'd say :(

[Slash/ED]

Hmm not too much more, 2,881 was the offical attendence.

[pineapple stu]

Updated for those last two figures.

Anybody catch the official crowd at Limerick v. Sligo? Have two very different estimates so far...

HAHAHA , i thought that was hillarious !!! :D :D

[Dr.Nightdub]

1270 at Pats v Drogheda

[Poor Student]

At Waterford v Shels radio said 1,800, Partizan said 1,400, someone on BTID says 800 and Shelsweb says 600. Take your pick Stu. :confused:

[trevy]

My guess is about 1200 there,definitely no more that that as empty seats in all sections of the stand and about 400 standing around the ground.

[Schumi]

517 by my count at UCD v Bray :(

[Slash/ED]

1,200 would be my guess at the RSC too.

[Buller]

1,600 is on SLIGO Rovers website for tonights game, SLIGO Rovers vs. Cobh

[Sheridan]

Just received a text alert proclaiming that;


A newspaper report has revealed the average Eircom League attendance has increased from 1,700 last season, to 1,900 so far this season.
Wonder where those figures came from? :confused:

BTW, attendance at Dublin City vs. Limerick probably just about brushed 200.

[pineapple stu]

What was that post there last year - think it said the Premier figure was around 1700 (compared to 1863 we got here)?

We're up to 1948 by our count here, so I suppose that isn't too far out.

Course, where it's coming from is another story...

In fairness, the League of Wales has only been around for 13 years or so, and the big teams (Swansea, Cardiff, Wrexham and even Merthyr Tydfil, Newport County and a couple of others) all play in England...

[Slash/ED]

I would guess around 1,400 at Shels v Longford if you still haven't got a number in for it. Typically poor monday crowd :(

[brendy_éire]

Derry-Drogs 2,500.

[anto eile]

Rovers harps- 1100 at a guess

[pineapple stu]

Updated, thanks! Now have a figure for every single Premier Division game played this season (and 89% of First Division games)... :)

[Lim till i die]

42 from Limerick after bringing 5 to Sligo not too long ago! Bandwagon jumpers! :p

There was actually four of us in Sligo :eek: and we managed to bring 42 to Dublin with the help of a bus and copious amounts of alcohol :D

[WindmillWarrior]

I would guess around 1,400 at Shels v Longford if you still haven't got a number in for it. Typically poor monday crowd :(

No way was there that many at it. 1,000 tops I would have said.

[Slash/ED]

It's hard to say because the crowd was so spread out, the Ballybough end had more than usual in it and even the Riverside had a few people in it, no idea why that happened.

[Schumi]

Very few in the Ballybough end in the first half. More in the second but they seemed to have moved from the new stand, which was only half full at best in the second half.

[pineapple stu]

I assume there'll be an official figure anyway?

[Slash/ED]

Fintan normally has the offical figure, I'll PM him tomorrow if there's none given.

[kevincronin2000]

just a rough guess but id say around 600 at belfield for ucd v cork city.

[pineapple stu]

506. Most depressing game I've ever been to at Belfield... :mad: :(
