Portadown, Ballymena & Cliftonville have had fewer high profile games at home, and Glentoran are missing a Linfield attendance, still pretty dire though :(

i presume these are official?

As official as you would get. Clubs must declare their attendance to the IFA and these are published, though it would appear that some clubs tend to work with fairly rounded figures and personally I don't put much faith in those.

PS after Cliftonvilles game last night (1979 in attendance) the average has gone up to 842.

I don't really see these as too bad. Northern Ireland is a small place and most of the clubs there have a small but dedicated support that also travel in numbers. Of course it'd be nice to see them higher though.

Same here. I thought Linfield and Glens figures would be higher and the other clubs would be lower

Jesus christ, I never knew their attendances were that bad.

I take those figures with a pinch of salt tbh. I would say they are under estimated, especially Blues and Glens.
