[sadloserkid]

What does the word "whch" mean?

In this instance it means that I should pay more attention to my deployment of vowels and possibly proves the existence of karma. :cool:

Certainly proves the existence of 'irony' any way..... :D

[John83]

Credit crunch really hitting the EL now imo
Hitting attendences or hitting clubs capacity to run up unhealthy debts?

[pineapple stu]

What does the word "whch" mean?

Recent games missing -
Monaghan v Dundalk


Approximately 500 according to the Dundalkfc.com match report (http://www.dundalkfc.com/News/080925_Monaghan.asp) on the game.

[Dodge]

You'd be missing Rovers v Bray too, surely?

[Mr A]

About 1000 at Harps V Pats

[Sam_Heggy]

About 1000 at Harps V Pats

Final figure was around 1200.

The was maybe 700 in the gate at the time the match started due to the time of kick off being changed.

[brendy_éire]

How many went to Brandywell for Linfield game?

Maybe 3,500 or so. Someone else should be able to give a more accurate figure.

[Marco]

Stu ... Cobh v Rovers attendance was 690, Cobh v Cork City was 1850 official, despite some tool letting in a ****e load for free the attendance should have been nearer 2500 :mad:

[Candystripe]

Maybe 3,500 or so. Someone else should be able to give a more accurate figure.


Yes I would agree with that. A lot lower than I would have expected although we were already through.

An amazing atmosphere for those who did turn up. It didn't seem to come across on TV how loud it actually was.

The 1st clip you can hear it a little better plus it shows the Linfield fans in full flight!

And the official coverage.

[gael353]

Bout 150 approx at longford limerick with 40 up from Limerick

[oldyouth]

Just a guesstimate but I'd say that Friday V Dundalk was our lowest of the season. I'd say around 400. Miserable night (weatherwise)

[Inside Man]

2,100 for last nights game with Galway.
200-300 away fans which was very good traveling support. Fair play for a team bottom of the league.

[Battery Rover]

Athlone Town vs Shelbourne attendance 741.

[Raheny Red]

Athlone Town vs Shelbourne attendance 741.

You're biggest of the season?

[Battery Rover]

You're biggest of the season?

Not 100% sure but it would be well up there. I know if you took out the freebies and season tickets it was the biggest of the season.

Many thanks to the Shels fans who drank our bar dry.

[LeixlipRed]

Many thanks to the Shels fans who made up about 90% of the crowd. How do you pay wages? :eek:

[LeixlipRed]

719 at Shels Monaghan btw.

[MariborKev]

400 at a push at the Derry v Bray game.

I tried counting but the rain was so heavy you couldn't see the other side of the pitch!

[Youths4Ever]

Just a guesstimate but I'd say that Friday V Dundalk was our lowest of the season. I'd say around 400. Miserable night (weatherwise)

Not a bad guess official attendance was 360

[Green&whitearmy]

400 at a push at the Derry v Bray game.

I tried counting but the rain was so heavy you couldn't see the other side of the pitch!

WHAT!!!?

How much drink did you have on the way down!!!
i say there was between 800 and 900, the green stand holds 1000 and there was a good crowd in it and the muppets standing in the pi$$ing rain behind the goal and in the red seats.

For the bray v rovers match, i'd say about 500 or so, bout 60-70 from bray. Any rovers fan can say wat they think if im wrong.

[WindmillWarrior]

Drogs v Cobh - 1,000
Drogs v Galway - 1,200
Drogs v Bohs - 2,400

[Buller]

WHAT!!!?

Wasn't as low as 500! I would have thought between 8 or 900 at our game v Bray - which would be our lowest crowd of the season. Bear in mind it was a Tuesday and our season is over...

[Buller]

It was as low as 500, if not lower, no where near 8 or 900.

Oh dear... I was in the main stand so I guess it is hard to judge - thats very bad....

[pineapple stu]

About 700 at Rovers-UCD?

[fionnsci]

Drogs v Cobh - 1,000
Drogs v Galway - 1,200
Drogs v Bohs - 2,400

I thought that 2,000 was maximum capacity?

[McLovin]

I thought that 2,000 was maximum capacity?
No.its like 2500 or 3000 now

[Bohemian1890]

3000-4000 id say for Hunts testimonial,:D:cool:

[HarpoJoyce]

About 700 at Rovers-UCD?

No, there's was very few at the other half in the Main Stand. I left very few UCD fans in the away end to join yourselves on the halfway line.

Between 400 and 500. But closer to 400.

[Krstic]

400 at a push at the Derry v Bray game.

I tried counting but the rain was so heavy you couldn't see the other side of the pitch!

Surely you mean, Bray V Derry.

[brendy_éire]

Surely you mean, Bray V Derry.

Aye, assume so.

It was probably about the 600 mark, IMO. The stand was fairly full, maybe 2/3 full, there were a handful of people at the Quinsborough end. The sea side was empty until some mad eejits went over there in the 2nd half.

[OneRedArmy]

In fairness, Maribor was in the press box on the open side at Bray (feasting on prawn sandwiches) and had a good view of everyone huddled in the Fisher Price stand.

It felt like somewhere between 500 and 900, if that helps.

[Paddyfield]

It felt like somewhere between 500 and 900, if that helps.

It doesn't really help. That's a massive guesstimate. You are suggesting that it could be 900 or maybe it was almost half that (500).

[Bray Head]

Bray vs. Derry was about 800 - 850. Most people were in the stand and a few standing behind the goal on a terrible night. Stand holds just about 950.

[OneRedArmy]

It doesn't really help. That's a massive guesstimate. You are suggesting that it could be 900 or maybe it was almost half that (500).I was trying to highlight the impossibility of estimating an attendance when everyone in the crowd is on one side of the ground.

I could provide a bullsh1t answer like many others if that helped?

[MariborKev]

Bray vs. Derry was about 800 - 850. Most people were in the stand and a few standing behind the goal on a terrible night. Stand holds just about 950.

That stand was 2/3 full if that.

[sligored]

guesstimate 2200 at sligo galway - open to correction
