Attendances 2019

[joey B]

1600 in Turner's cross

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

465 in Belfield

That Cork attendance could be the final straw for Caulfield. Their budget I presume is for average attendances of 3 or 4 thousand.

[nigel-harps1954]

The ones of those I have on my spreadsheet are :

5th April - Athlone v Drogheda - 257
20th April - Cobh v Longford - Estimated 350

543 was Athlone v Drogheda apparently. That's the figure I got this evening anyway.

[CorribsideSteve]

Good to see Rovers getting regular 3 and 4 thousand figures, with the 6414 or the derby, a small outlier at the moment, definitely replicable though if they stay towards the top end of the League table. There were a few season's there were the average at Tallaght was in the 2000's.971 at Waterford is a surprise. One of the few really poor attendances this year, along with the 1600 in TX.

Monday night games are killing attendances.Same fixyure played on a Friday night would prob have attracted 3000+ for this.

Prob 130/140 down from Dundalk.

[nigel-harps1954]

And another update after the games tonight. Got a few extra official attendances I was missing earlier too.

Taking Derry v Bohs as 2,500.

Nice to note we've passed the 200,000 mark going through the gates of LOI matches as of tonight.

On the fcuking ball Nigel.

Monday night games hammer the attendances alright, I just thought 1,500 would be a minimum even for a Monday night there. Presumably Dundalk would have brought hundreds more on a Friday night too though. Attendances have been very decent overall so far.

[EatYerGreens]

543 was Athlone v Drogheda apparently. That's the figure I got this evening anyway.

On the LOI Facebook page ?

Did they say what their source was ?

Dundalk would prob take 400+ to Waterford on a Friday night.
The weather was also awful in Waterford this evening which wouldn't have helped
I really feel sorry for Waterford in this case.

Have enquired, and yet to find out where the figure came from. Where'd you get yours from? I've struggled to find it anywhere.

[Kingswood Rover]

How many times have Rovers been involved in the round of fixtures best attended match?

[EatYerGreens]

Have enquired, and yet to find out where the figure came from. Where'd you get yours from? I've struggled to find it anywhere.

Over Easter I trawled back through 'Domestic Ireland' posts on Twitter, and the LOI page on Facebook for my own spreadsheet. So it would've been one or other of those.

I only used figures which seemed reliable. Estimates I highlight in a different colour, and I hadn't done it for that one - so it had credibility when I picked it up.

That's as much as I can offer by way of verification I'm afraid !

Jodi stand sold out for tonight, but there will be a lot of spare tickets for the Des Kelly stand for away fans and "neutrals"

Jodi stand sold out for tonight, but there will be a lot of spare tickets for the Des Kelly stand for away fans and "neutrals"

How many tickets do you think we will get next week? We will easily bring 6/700

[David BOHie]

How many tickets do you think we will get next week? We will easily bring 6/700

Jesus I hope you do. You'll be given the shed which holds about 850-900 people.
The Jodi holds 2750. Total capacity about 3650.

It's a shame we have that capacity and 25% has to go to the away fans due to access but it is what it is.
