Way more than that there, that has to be one of the worst estimates ever!

903 according to Irish Times. A lot of Bohs fans don`t travel to Oriel because of the lock in for twenty mins after the game and the crap view of the left hand quadrant of the pitch from that "vantage point" I generally get a home ticket and sit in the stand, unfortunately wasn`t there last night though.
Was between 350-400 at least at the Classico 250 is an awful guess, huge Longford town following there.
The crowd at Monaghan is a disaster for them. Other figures very dissappointing as well, if some clubs even got family and friends of player to attend they would improve on their figures.
My Dad, Uncle and Cousin went last night, said it was a small crowd but over a thousand. Cousin's a season ticket holder and they all went in the stand. Times were when it was standing room only. Now there's plenty of room to stand.
Can't understand why Monaghan haven't had even a wee increase - should canvas the county hurlers since they've not much to do.
not great to be honest. only had about 100ish last night though I think theres exams starting on Monday so people giving it a miss because of that - oh and the fact that we have been rubbish
I'd hope we'd have 300 at least for Pats, especially if we beat Dundalk
Could never understand this one because i would be sure that this has more to do with the directions of AGS rather than some direction from somebody @ DundalkFC/Oriel Park.
Funnily enough i would say that the streets outside OP were empty last night aprox two mins after the end of the match so i cant see why Bohs fans would have been kept back,if they were?
Btw,we also get kept behind when we go to Dalyer,Shels (Always 20 mins in Tolka??),Shams,Drogs(usualy after 20mins too and then they let us walk over the pitch too ??)
Would attendances improve if it was a tenner in rather than 15 euros? Think a tenner is a fair price these days.
It's a tenner into the ground for all our matches this season and the attendances are about to go through the floor i would say. Off course that has more too do with our results/style of play/board/GM/liars/trust/no trust/the burren and the cliffs of Moher/the tulla and the Kilfenora.ohh Liss- doon - varna.......Fcuk sorry,got carried away ;D
Ours are a tenner, top of the league and still struggle to get 400+
we charge €12
Mervue v Harps - 215 according to Extratime. Joke.
Sligo v St. Pats 1,947.
Athlone Town vs Longford 396
I would be very surprised if Mervue United have 110-120 non-attending season ticket holders.
The only way I can see that is if they sell tickets at reduced prices to the parents of kids playing underage as a way of raising funds and include them too.
All coaches, managers, back room staff etc.. HAD to buy one according to some of them. Some of them then in turn have bought season tickets for the kids. This would account for a large portion of sales. Amazingly these members of the club are the very ones not even bothering showing up at the matches.
We would have had an average crowd approaching 1,700 last season if we included non attending season ticket holders .Never heard you could do this and it totaly skews credibility of LOI attendance figures if clubs do.
Like it or not, it is a fairly standard practice. i think I've said earlier in this thread, that it is the standard in UK football, and in other sports in Ireland.
Not really saying it's right, just that it's not totally off the wall.
Official attendance at Cork City vs Dundalk is 2815. Heavy rain just before kickoff probably didn't help it, not bad though.
805 in Tolka for Shels v Mons.
we didn't get an official attendance in Tallaght but estimate of about 2,500
481 was the official attendance from Limerick FC vs Mervue United.
Way down from the last few home games. Not one bit suprising though.
Its something like 50-80 for SD Galway/Waterford. Truly jaw dropping numbers considering what Terryland can hold.
1087 for Drogs V Sligo tonight.
