eircom League 2007 Attendances

[Sam Savic]

your joking these offical attendances are a joke ! there was a way fewer than that !

That's the figure I heard. Sligo would have had counters there anyway.
Do you think if everyone was in the main stand that it would be at least two thirds full? I do.

[CharlesThompson]

Apparently the limit at Drogheda's United Park is 2,000. We sold our allocation of 370 out (and to be honest, it seemed like there were actually more than 370 of us there) and it certainly looked like there was at least 1,630 Drogs supporters there. So a reasonable assumption would be 2,000 at Drogs v Bohs.

[Schumi]

About 200 at Salthill v UCD, I'd say.

[sfc red]

Shels v Cork City last night. Generous 700. That is based on me being bored & counting the crowd at the start of the second half.

Seems strange that getting smaller crowd than league games.

There were so many kids there will probably be a discount for grown-ups soon. :p

Official attendance was 1,002. You were probably bored as your team of title challengers resorted to cheating (blatant diving twice), bringing the ball into the corner and time wasting since the first half against a team of amateurs missing six first choice players.

340 at UCD-Sligo. Could have been worse considering the thunder and lightening.

Arse. Official crowd was 443.

[dublinred]

Arse. Official crowd was 443.

Double arse , I counted 100 in the main stand where were the other 343??????????

BTW: I would split the hundred as follows , 30 singing rovers fans, 20 non singing to the left of press box, 20 officials and press and 30 people to the right of press box of which 4 standing and singing , absolute disgrace its time UCD were booted out of the league for non compliance in the attendance section.

Are you blind?

[dublinred]

Are you blind?

No , but not the best at seeing invisible people I haven't got that supersonic sense sense yet now i know the difference between Sligo RTC and UCD.

:D lol

POTM!

:rolleyes: Whatever. The attendence was 443, if you don't agree tough.

[red bellied]

Are you blind?

250-300 and thats been generous. Ask your self the same or maybe a question of colour blindness and under estimating a players weight?

[DmanDmythDledge]

Same old Sligo...

[dfx-]

1,9xx announced as present in Galway

[DonO'Bate]

1,9xx announced as present in Galway

Official attendance 1,964.

[Dodge]

Poorish crowd in Bray. Canvas stand still practically full with about 40-50 others

I'll trust an engineers' counting which roughly agreed with my own guess over the incoherent rantings of an obvious biased mucker, thanks.

What's the canvas thing hold? Is it about 1000?

[pineapple stu]

Indeed it was poor - as noted, thunder and lightening before kick off doesn't help. But there were about 340 there. You can take it or leave it.

[Green&whitearmy]

The new stand was full which holds 1000, there was about 200 standing around the ground, I'd say 1200. Good crowd considering the weather conditions.

[gael353]

off attn was 553

[Schumi]

There is a difference in being qualified as one and Daddy telling you are one.Indeed there is, the BE degree hanging on my wall tells which I am. I counted 340; 160 around the ground and 180 in the stand about 10-15 mins into the second half.

Still a rubbish crowd obviously but I can't blame anyone who looked outside 20 mins before kick off and said "**** this".

[dublinwanderer]

ucd + sligo fans shut up arguing...

About 1200-1300 at bray pats game imo

would hav been at least double that if it wasnt raining... thought pitch was brilliant in those conditions, really held up well.

[Saint MacDara]

Whats the capacity of the covered stand in Bray?

It was full so id add a couple of hundred to that for the attendance.

Read the posts above thats what they said....:rolleyes::rolleyes:

How many Pats were there?

[Dodge]

All of us

[BohsFans]

All of us

How many were abusing your manager?

[Dodge]

about 5

Stoopid stuff

Does he really have to whine about things like in every after match interview?

[steno]

Kildare County V Athlone Town : around 180 methinks. Its a shame because it was a good game with two well taken goals from Kildare County two of the best for a good while. Poor game against Kilkenny City last week might have put some off and we are playing them next week.....

[Dodge]

No just 2 in 16.

[Comic Book Guy]

Reckon about 850 at the Cobh/Dundalk game, probably would have been a lot more except for the afternoon k.o

[WindmillWarrior]

Recent matches missing -
Drogheda v Longford

Stick it down for the usual 1,500ish I suppose.

Looked to be a good crowd in the Brandywell Friday night. No idea for a guess though

[Bray Head]

Does he really have to whine about things like in every after match interview?

I heard his interview on radio after the match and think he was correct. There was 1 Pats fan sitting behind the dug out abusing him in the final minutes when Pat's with ten men were hanging on for a point. The Pats fans who moved to the far side when the rain stopped really got behind their team as they were under pressure. It could prove to be a valuable point at the end of the season for Pats.

[Cici900]

There was from 900-1100 at the cobh game so our promotions officer says.

[pineapple stu]

Scientific!

[atfconline]

Kildare County V Athlone Town : around 180 methinks.

Wouldn't argue with that. Thought somewhere between 150 and 200 by half counting it myself.

[Philly]

I'd say 180 for the KCFC-ATFC game too.

[Battery Rover]

I'd say 180 for the KCFC-ATFC game too.

In total agreement with that. Around 60 of them from Athlone

[Kildare Lad]

In total agreement with that. Around 60 of them from Athlone

That must be the worst crowd at Station Road all season

443 UCD V Sligo official attendance

Whats also official is that Schumi cant count:eek:

[sligoman]

443 UCD V Sligo official attendanceIs that bull**** I smell?:rolleyes:

[DmanDmythDledge]

Is that bull**** I smell?:rolleyes:
:rolleyes:Same as last week. There was 443 there, no point arguing with an official attendence. Seeing as I'm in Belfield every second week I'm able to judge the crowd without an official attendence anyway.

[Mr A]

I think there is often more confusion over small attendances than relatively big ones. One point to note is that at many grounds were people can stand at the wall or fence around the pitch that up to 400 people can be just lining the wall, and it'll look like very few are there. This is especially the case in good weather.

I wonder if this could the case here?

[DmanDmythDledge]

That rule the you preech above should come into play in this case.
No because this is an official attendence.


I wonder if this could the case here?
No, just Sligs being Sligs.

[dublinred]

[QUOTE=Titan;710747]443 UCD V Sligo official attendance

Defo not that there I was bored in the first half and counted 100 max in the main stand including press and approx 100 scattered around the fence which would give 200 if you also counted the players 22 , subs 8 , managers/assistants/trainers./physios 8 , the little nippers that played at half time 20 , the people in the tv gantry 3 , stewards 10 and the guy making the tea still would only give a max of 275.

This may be a co-incidence but did the person doing the offical count ever star in a movie with Bruce Willis when he was a kid I can't remeber the name of it but he was able to see dead people.

[BohsFans]

No just 2 in 16.

980 quoted for Valur - Cork match on Saturday. Any idea how many Cork fans travelled?

Well then you clearly can't count if that's your guess. Seriously. It's just wrong.

Our official attendances were nonsense last year, from what I can tell, because we wanted to stay up, which is why I excluded them from this. However, I haven't seen any problems with official figures to date this season, so with a club official telling me the official crowd was 443, it'll have to go in as that, according to the rules Rocketfingers wants me to preach.

[Bald Student]

Well then you clearly can't count if that's your guess. Seriously. It's just wrong.It's not a question that he can't count. He didn't count, if he had he wouldn't say '100 max' or 'about 100' he'd have a more precise figure.

I heard 200 mentioned but from pictures looked like less than 100.
