After seeing a less than full stand (which holds 2,300) in Derry last night I think we can take it that Derry fans are the kings of exaggeration on this thread. If they can't fill it for a Cup Semi-final how can they expect us to believe that they have "nearly" filled it on a number of occasions throughout the season (yes I have read through the thread!). I remember one instance when it was stated that the stand was again "nearly full, with only a couple of hundred empty seats" (ha, same as last night actually!) and when the game highlights were shown on TV3 and the camera panned the ground a half full stand was clearly visible.
And when we played up in Derry there was a crowd of about 1,000 which was backed up in our local paper who always get the official attendance but what the Derry fans gave here was 1,700! From first hand experience I can tell you that is some exaggeration.
Now before anyone starts I know our crowds are not great for a team in 2nd (but at least they are accurate and along with Bohs are realistically the only ones that can be taken seriously) and that Derrys (real) crowds aren't bad for the football they have had to put up with this season (brutal last night!) but some of the sh*te on here really bugs me!
Limerick v Harps attn 75! :o
I think even their stated capacity of 2,300 is an exaggeration. It holds less than 2,000 AFAIK!
Dont talk crap !...Quote:

As for Windy Miller there....the only seats empty were around the Waterford fans which were reserved by the 5% away rule.
Flancare looked packed out yesterday.... :rolleyes:
Take ANYTHING Drogs say as being realistic?Quote:

Not true. You see you can't get away with your exaggerations now as we all have eyes.Quote:

Either way, it was a pretty poxy crowd on Friday
[QUOTE=manic da hoop]A pretty poxy crowd of almost 3,000, not bad considering Waterford brought ONE bus.Quote:

A crowd of less than 3,000 (and the stand didn't look quite full from what I saw on the tele) is pretty poor for a Cup semi-final, by ant standards. And, yes, I would be the first to acknowledge that attendances at our games are dire - however, the reasons for that have been well documented both here and elsewhere by now.
What other semi-final in the past 5 years did the away team bring ONE bus load of supporters ? Feck sake you lot had more at the Brandywell for a standard league game than Waterford had on Friday night. I agree 3,000 is pretty poor for a semi-final, but you normally have a good squad of support from the other team too. We didnt, it was all Derry City apart from 30-35 Waterford fans.Quote:

Isn't the stand the only part of the ground thats allowed to be used. You can't expect us to believe that there was near on 1,000 on the side with the tv cameras?!!! Emptiness and scaffolding were clearly visible on that side both behind the presenter (Michael Lester I think?) and when the camera behind the goal panned over that way.
We have terracing from where the players come out right over under the old seating stand. Which can cater for almost 700 standing. And for your information there was about 100 emply seats where the Waterford fans were situated....meaning the other 2,200 were full. It might not have been 3,000 but slightly less.Quote:

Wasn't brilliant. But then again a travelling crowd of around 1,200 (no exaggeration ;) ) wasn't bad considering the game was on tv, the poxy weather and some big sh*te GAA game that was on in Drogheda that day.
The Harps Shels semi from a few years back was live on TV,Shels had little or no support,but there was 5,500 at the game.Not that we can boast about our support this year! :oQuote:

Apologies to you corkharps but the Att. for Limerick v. Finn Harps was nearerQuote:

That includes the five (5) Limerick fans who turned up in a car after Limerick had taken the lead (35 mins or so) and left before the end.
I don't know if they were included in the gate receipts.
Although is this thread about approximating receipts or just the attendance?
There are some supporters who believe there isn't a differance.
What were you doing down there, Harpo?! And you couldn't even make the UCD game when we played there! ;)Quote:

Yeah not by our standards considering we brought the same amount to a league match in dalyer and to another cup match in belfield. But WW excuses are valid.
Good chaps derry supporters, keep saying 'we're the best supporters in the league', 'everyone loves us', blah blah blah. Some day you might make others believe it :eek: .
Our attendances arent great considering where we are in the league but they're in the top few without a doubt. If people were realistic on this thread and not seeing double vision like the derry supporters, this thread would have alot more credibility.
Sorry for this off topic rant lads but derry supporters and their attitude really get up my noses. Again, apologies
Considering where you are in the league LOL :DQuote:

Eh, no dortie, the opposite. Our attendances have only increased slightly now that we're doing well. They've been roughly the same as previous seasons when we were fighting for relegation (obviously a few notable exceptions).
Like lastnight if i was a derry supporter id be saying there were 7000 at the match and tell everyone else how i cheered for the other teams supporters at the end of the match, blah blah blah
again sorry for the rant - worst day of my life ever and very hungover
Trust me i dont see the point in exagerating attendances, id safely say our average gate this year is 2,000, which is pathetic for Derry standards. On cheering the other teams supporters, personally I never do it (Despise it), but there was some Derry fans who made the gesture.Quote:

In fairness dortie waterford is the other end of the island to you and it was on a friday night. Also werent they up only a few weeks earlier the time you were losing and switched off the floodlights?! :D
Cork Rovers was about 2,500-3,000 with 50 of us down to watch more garbage!
KOH
We took around 500/600 to Turners cross on a friday night in the semi's in 2002... :DQuote:

Our cup semi final against Athlone town a few years back was great. City fans took up all one side of the pitch.Quote:
