Crowd at GUFC - Bray looked a lot bigger than the official attendance of 1553, stand was pretty full and a large crowd was behind the dressing room goal

Looked on the mark to me. Looking accross from the new stand side there was plenty of empty spaces in the stand, especially down by where the Bray fans where.

There were more than that, I reckoned about 350 or 400.

300 from the photo I have, 270 in the stand and another 30 around the ground.

Aside,
There was a big gang of foreigners who were good fun. They got ludicrously excited every time Longford entered the UCDD half.

To be honest the crowd did not look like it had halved from 3000 for the Cork game to 1500 for the Bray game, I stand to be corrected.

i thought it did tbh. half the seats in the stand were empty and there were very few behind both goals and on the 'new stand' side. even those standing at the back of the 'old stand' were only one deep whereas for cork it was 3 or 4 deep. even section A was only about half full on friday

I was standing at the new stand so had a good view across the pitch, section A was not full and the Bray section was not either, but I have seen the stand with much less people and bigger attendances recorded, but we will go with the official figure, as I was not counting!

Was there bad weather? Or any other possible explanations??

No, the weather was good. The crowds have been dropping steadily, but this is about half the previous lowest attendance for a league game. Looks like the results are turning people off, unfortunately. Maybe it's just a blip, we'll see on Tuesday against Limerick. Although I'm sick of looking at them this season!

In fairness the weather was awful all day long and with not much cover there unless you want to go behind the goal the crowd was always going to be hit.

Was shocked at how far from completion the new stand was.

Highly impressed with the bar though, it proved difficult to get out of :)

I'd go for 2,800 at the Brandywell v Galway. Very good crowd for a Sunday evening

They won't be back unless we start seeing some goals though.

Agreed, I was going to say 170 though. Great away support for a Tuesday evening. Probably about 120/130 Reds there.

I often wonder how can clubs like Kilkenny, Kildare and Monaghon can sustain themselves with crowds that small... How much do they pay their players?

Spot on. Bank holidays should be used instead of midweek. Certain FAI "officers" were told this but to no avail.
