right fine, Bohs crowds are better than Pats.
What was the attendance at the Mons v Derry game last nite? I saw a few action pictures from the game, so I counted about 10 so at least there was some sort of crowd at it?
Maybe Pats can increase their support as their fans get to know their players better and get used to the new style of football they are playing. I noticed during the game against Cork that some of their fans around me wanted the ball kicked forward quicker rather than pass it to a team-mate. Bohs this year so far seem to have a more loyal following.
Having to lie about it in the first place was embarrassing though.Quote:

I was in the Showgies last Sat and the crowd seemed to me to be bigger than the figure given,I couldn't imagine getting another 2k into the ground safely.
Looked just over 3,000 in my estimation.Quote:

Thats a very good crowd for Cork, saw them against Pats last week and the team is going in right direction. However hope they keep control on wages and not pay any crazy money to players as it is a buyers market out there.Plenty decent talent around who can replace the established and overpaid players we have had in the league. The crowd in Tallagh looked very poor on tv, I suppose the rain may have kept the Shamrock fans at home.
another poor crowd at our match tonight.. estimate 150-200..
400-500 at Jackman Park I'd say.
That is ridiculously bad.Quote:

Think it was similar enough attendance at our match tonight, can't remember exactly what was announced but 2400 and something I think.Quote:

2477 was the attendance announced for rovers vs shels in the showgrounds last night.
A decent crowd in bray last night considering the conditions, probably around 1300-1400 at it with about 500 pats fans who did alot of singing in the rain, fair play to them all.

Violent rivalry erupts on Irish football forum.
Just over 1200 at Bohs game including Uachtarain na hEireann , 50 or so Derry fans.
2400 estimated on extratime for the Shamrock and Drogs game, I know the time and TV coverage tells against the attendance but it is disappointing all the same, what a fickle bunch we are in Irish support in general and football in particular.
betting for 2012 foot.ie attendance thread winners.
Shamrock 4/6
Cork 5/2
Sligo Rovers 4/1
Others on application.
First Division being ignored again. It's a bloody disgrace etc. :)Quote:

1489 in attendance at Shels v Bohs.
950 at Mons v Shamrock Rovers according to ET.
But how many were Hoops?
At least 1,000.Quote:

A poor enough crowd at Pats for a game that could have moved them closer to the top. There seems to be a limit to what they can achieve support wise which means they will always be behind Bohs who had a good support at Tolka last night. Maybe monday night suits a rural club like Monaghan in order to get the crowds in.
Who was it used to play their games on a Thursday night, Dublin City? Although that was probably in the blind hope of a few fans of other clubs turning up...Quote:

1,000 home fans for a monday game is better than last year. 30 Dundalk fans is about 1/10th of what they brought last year. we definitely have a low enough ceiling thoughQuote:

Looked like about 800 Bohs fans in the Riverside, presumably Shels have the ticket stubs and can give an accurate figure. Poor crowd overall for a traditional Dublin Derby. Monday night really is a poor night for fixtures ( as the Setanta has shown)Quote:
