are you going to seriously suggest that 2000 bog rovers were travelling? :rolleyes: how would you know this?

are sligs the new cork? numbers just inflate....

i'd say 700-800 were defo travellin. 2000 is a wee bit over the top but it could easily have been over 1000

bog rovers?? u mean premier divison sligo rovers

Good man rovers till your dead, cant win an argument so you resort to name calling :rolleyes:

I agree, defo 3000+. .

How did you arrive at that figure?

When Celtic came in 2000 the capacity including temporary seating at the training ground end was 6,000.

The only area now open is the Dartside seats and the bank behind the goal at the Bray Bowl end - half the ground - presumably a capacity of 3,000.

According to Roo 69' s posting about The Shed the seated area holds 1800. The seats weren't all filled, but there were people standing to compensate for it.

Even if you said there were 2,000 on the Dartside, there would have had to be 1,000 behind the goal, which would have left no space for the hundreds of Shels fans who moved to be behind the goal in the second half.

You've got a point, I was putting that figure down going by how much free space there was and did'nt consider enough how much the shed could hold. How many people can fit on the Dartside now? I know there is supposed to be 1800 seats but how many can fit in the standing space where seats used to be, taking into account that you can fit many more people in a standing area.
