They sold the ground twice! :D

Even we have started to release official crowd figures this season (well one of the two home games, the 3,667 v Drogs), never saw that before, so no reason why all other clubs cant.
Re IPL, must be the biggest range in crowds in any top flight in europe, from 7,000 for Glentoran v Linfield to 134 and 194 in Lisburn and Newry. Amazing
It doesn't matter when the ****ing deadline is.
Once the FAI publish the figures every week - whether it be Mon morning or Tuesday afternoon or whenever?
Don't see the fascination with attendances. We can all see the crowds are rubbish, does the actual figure really matter? Seems to be more of a ****ing contest for some here than anythign else (not everyone of course)
It was ****ing rain, all of you were allowed into the Jodi, despite having paid 5 Euro less for the Connacht side, we are complete *******s alright.
No idea why you werent allowed down at half time and provided with free hot food, what were we thinking?
I saw about 6 of your burbery capped fans coming from the chipper before half time which caused only unrestrained mirth from the Bohs fans, so no problems as far as I could see. Unfortunately it seems to have been a colours only ban. Were you allowed in the bar afterwards?
the Big Bad Bohs B@stards strike again...
:rolleyes: You're right. There could be no detrimental effects to standing in the ****ing rain for 2 hours and then spending 4-5 hours in the soaking wet clothes on the way home...
You only allowed us into the Jodi because of complaints from RTE, if you'd any choice you wouldnt have and your own stupidity cost you the 5 euro from each person.
There was no reason at all bar acting like asses not to leave us into the Jodi straight away, exactly like you have 90% of the times we've been to Dalymount. It's not like their wasn't enough room. You're board thought they'd be smart by throwing away fans in a crumbling uncovered stand for now reason at all and it backfired, the only result being it costing ye money.
Another stellar job done by your board :ball:
I get the estimates by looking around the crowd. I have legs, I'm able to walk around the ground and check the crowd. From the pressbox I can see the entirety of the covered stand and those standing up at the bowling alley end. To check the stand on the DART side all I have to do is walk down to the wall and have a quick look around.
My estimates are probably off, but I don't see why you get so upset. Until Bray announce official attendances, we'll never know what the real attendance is.
I've never said my estimates are official but I admit I do round down a bit because eyes do deceive. For instance, the Drogs Bray match on 13 March. All guesses (including yours) were over a thousand.

I wouldnt be fascinated, but I`d safely say the better the attendance the more healthier the club.
As said many times before, it would make life so much easier if all 22 reported exact figures.
Sorry if this has been dealt with before, but is there not a licencing obligation on clubs to provide match tickets these days? None at Sligo on Saturday anyway.
I dont think i have ever seen you leave that box superfrank!!!! And I'M sure alot of people will agree wit me.....
So am I correct in assuming that the only game that the away fans should be opposite the jodi stand is shamrock rovers??
Cork City v Drogheda United - Official Attendance: 2,174.
Extratime has Galway-Bohs down as 750, I'd say about 850-900
Yes it is a licencing obligation and some clubs seem to be ignoring it or are being let away with it. So far in the first ourselves, UCD, Kildare, Athlone and shels ...as ive been and witnessed already this season and from memory both Wexford and longford do tickets
Knew we'd have a poor attendance tonight. Tuesday evening game clashing with Man U on the telly and the weather was absolutely brutal. Thought we might scrape 1,000 but obviously not.
why they turned away?
750 was an optimistic estimate, which has since been changed to 695, the official attendance.
