The more I think about it, the more I think my 2,600 estimation was a bit on the high side. 2,368 is very believable.
I wonder!!!Quote:

are you sure about that, i would have thought everyone had to be accounted for, for safety etc..... could be wrong thoQuote:

Also with a much lower salary budget less clubs will fold as in recent years. This would save football in ireland and create a more competitive league and yes I believe if it's more competitive the crowds will come back.Quote:

Decent crowds at both games but cant help feeling oppurtunities missed to corral in a few "floating" fans.Quote:

Sorry, thats wrong. Members enter through the officials door but membership numbers are taken and recorded (and have been at every match since this new arrangement was introduced). Dont know RE season tickets but defo what happens with members (cant see why it would be any different just dont know for sure). As pointed out this is a licencing requirement and the only alternative would be to issue a ticket to each person entering (as happened in previous seasons).Quote:

Don't know why they don't use the scanner!
fair enough BF not doubting your word I was only speaking from personal experience as well. guy on the door with clip board has checked my membership no and ticked it off on his list (maybe I just look suspicious :mad:)Quote:

663 official crowd in Finn Park tonight against Wexford Youths.
Bloomin delighted with that considering we lost our last 2 games.
Leinster match on telly at same time as Bohs & Rovers had to effect attendance tonight at the game in Tallaght. (flippin LUAS was runnin to Tallaght either), had to be a fix.
I don't think we'll be too upset with the crowd despite that Leinster game being on at the same time.Quote:

1900 dundalk
25 from ucd(them lads would do anything for a free pint)
Prob sounds about right, I`m sure official figure will come from club later today.

Either that or it's all a big conspiracy from Rovers to artificially inflate crowd numbers for no obvious reason.
Extratime has an estimate of 300Quote:

Nah.
I was being generous with 500. 1,000 my hole. Keep on deluding yourself.
And I went for a slash at one stage and had no bother getting by behind the goals.:D
are you talking to yourself or who is that actually addressing?Quote:

Big enough city though and I agree with 18/18 points on the board, they should be getting a lot more.
IM Jim - whats the maketting like down there for games ?
We now have a poster for each game on our website where fans can download and stick up in pubs/offices etc, might be an idea.
1776 is the official figure for Dundalk vs. UCD.

West Waterford, that brings in a few extra numbers. There is also a West Waterford Supporters Club which is
fantastic.
