Harps v Wexford - 529

Unless we beat Mervue and/or Limerick, I could be one lonely mo-fo in Finn Park 26th May.

Maybe 800 at Bohs and Dundalk?

A fairly pathetic 422 at Limerick v Waherfurr.

Extra time has the following

Drogs Rovers - 400 (estimate) - sounds about right to me. Shocking crowd. About half from Sligo I'd say

Shels Cork 1071

Youths Salthill - 150 (estimate)

Mervue Harps - 250

Limerick Waterford - 442 (no jokes about formations please)

Over 200 at the Youths Salthill game, more 150 anyway, ForzaForth reckons 230

Not a hope. Barely 100 there with about half the crowd Harps fans.

EDIT, on another note, my first time at Fahys Field, and what a strange experience it was watching football in that ground. Anyone able to explain how it passes license requirements? No stand whatsoever. Doesn't each first division ground have to have 500 seats now? Have Mervue plans to build a stand or something? Standing at the away side you actually feel below the pitch and perspective comes into action a lot watching a game there. Hard to follow.

You's did no more bring 200.

It was a poor crowd but still thought it was more than 400.

There's plans for a stand there on the clubhouse side alright saw them in the programme when we were up there. Jackman only has about 200 seats left intact aswell in fairness but we're leaving soon, Drom has no seats what so ever and is located on the lonely moors, but I'm sure they have plans aswell.

Think we can all agree that Mervues crowds are a figment of a PRO's imagination at this stage aswell.

Closer top 2000 (including the nine from Bray)

Yeah fair enough - I was just quoting the figure on the match report on sligorovers.com but tbf regular matchgoers like yourself are the best estimators imo. Cracking website btw - greatly improved on recent years.

This was posted over on the Bohs mb. It is an archive of attendances from 2000-2010. I found it very interesting. It factors all attendances for all competitions and reported friendlies. When you get to the main page, scroll down and click on "Ireland"

It was quite scary alright hope your meeting goes well on tuesday night , shame to see the glory hunters abandon the ship in such numbers , it just shows that any club can just be a few years away from meltdown.

i noticed - lots of fluctuation like ourselves. i also couldnt believe the rise and fall of Galways attendances from 2006 to 2010!

Would be interesting for Pineapple Stu to do a comparison of his own figures with those in the website (presuming theyre not pulling off his info) to see how close the estimations are on here. Pretty close i would imagine.

If you look at Stu's 2010 figures and the ones they give they are pretty much the same, only a difference of 2 in the figures they give for Pats, 3 for Dundalk and 10 for UCD

EDIT: they give Bohs highest attendance for 2010 as 11,155:eek:

First div attendences are a bit off the mark Id say for 2007,Ramblers won the league that year and the attendences were higher for that winning run in the first than most of the games in the prem the folllowing season

I know as a Mons fan I cant talk but was shocked by how few were at our game V Athlone on Saturday in Lissywoolen. Less than 100 people there and about 40 of them were Mons. 30 were on the bus and another 10 or so drove up.

You really, really, can't!! :D

As a Limerick fan though (FOUR HUNDRED AND TWENTY TWO at our last home game :cool:) I can confirm that Athlones crowds are appalling and there's a sad but distinct smell of death around the place.
