Divide that 300 by 2 and you have our crowd tonight. Nowhere near 300 there, way off.

Are you telling me there was 800 Dundalk? I know the lure of standing in the cold of morton that mighty footballing arena and playing the mighty Fingal with all there history and pedigree is a lure for most teams but are you really telling me you brought your biggest away crowd to Morton? Similar to what Shamrock Rvs brought? I dont think so. Iv seen 800 in that stand and Dundalk didnt have that many.

We defo had more fans there than your lot, it didnt look as many cause we where spread out all over the place but the paper today gave a figure of 800 for the game in total!

There were at least a 100 Dundalk fans in the seated stand. I had my young sons with me, so I thought I'd give them a bit of shelter.

It doesnt really matter, no points or prizes handed out for who has the most fans at a game. Its like someone trying to get a moral victory by claiming to have more fans than the other. All that counts is the official attendance .

Would agree with that. I'd say around 900. 150 in the Jinks and behind the two goals and 750 in the main stand.

No where near 750 in main stand. It was about a quarter full. About 150 Pats fans

I didn't say we should get a trophy or prize for that.

1109 at Fingal V Dundalk

This was mentioned earlier, then a DFC fan said:

I'd imagine that around 800 of those were from Dundalk really good crowd from us tonight

which is ludacris, about 500, 550 max of us up there. The stand was half empty or half full whatever way you wana view it but I'd be more enclined to go with the Star's attendance of 800 at the game as it was fairly empty overall. It was mentioned in another thread that Fingal's fanbase had grown from the last time we played in Morton Stadium but in all fairness there was more there the last time than this time around. BTW is that figure of 1109 an official SFFC figure given?

It had up until that game. I was pretty disapointed with the turnout tbh. (not from yous of course) The stars guesstimate seems a little low to me. If there was between 5 and 600 hundred Dundalk then there was no way there was only 2 to 300 fingal, which if we go by you and the star then thats what you are saying there was. Anyway enough time has been taken up over this so ill leave it there.

I'll take your word for it, I was sitting in the main stand so I couldn't really see.
More like 750 in total so.
Poor showing but when you roll over in the first leg like we did and leave yourself nothing to play for you can't expect much more.
Pats brought a good crowd alright.

Maybe this has been covered before but is there a reason that Rovers don't give official attendances, considering they probably have the highest average in the league?

It's curious it's more First Division clubs who give official attendances. Only official figures in the Premier are UCD, Fingal, Galway and Dundalk (and Dundalk not all the time). By contrast, only Longford, Mervue, Monaghan, Salthill and Wexford in the First don't give official figures, and Wexford did up until last year. So 40% of the Premier v 60% of the First give official figures. So it's not just a Rovers thing.

Ours against waterford was 182.

250 at most at Youths vs. Derry. Considering they're the biggest visitors of the seasons, that's really awful for us. I'd say around half were Derry fans, really brilliant supporters. The Conga almost made up for the scoreline! We really definitely have to move the games back to Friday nights..

There was no way 182 people in the ground, unless you included the guys on the gate, bar staff, ball boys, the match officials and both teams.

That's a disgrace after Galway's great victory at Bohs.

With obviously no money on the night from season-ticket holders would they have had enough money to pay the 4 match officials??

Lads, I think a little unfair on Galway, attendances as a whole are awful for most clubs who have to play on Mon/Tues night. We had our lowest of the season last year v Bray on a tues night I think.

Stu - nice feature that putting the weekend crowds at the end of the stats, you going to do that each week ?

I will, yeah. Partly because Isbrandij uses the figures for his soccerway site and finds it a bit hard to wade through five pages a week to find the eleven figures he needs, and partly because it sums up the week and gives the potential to start off rows all over again (like the Monaghan attendance. :) )

No way! They had about 600. They had more up for their 2nd visit last season. That time it was close to 900 iirc
