I'd guesstimate 2,800 at Rovers v Derry City on a sunny evening in Tallaght stadium.
Very few Derry away fans. Lots of families which was great to see.
What was the attendance at the Showgrounds on Saturday night last for the Waterford visit, did I hear close to 3,000+ /
Anyone there on the night to confirm or estimate !
Must have read 2762, but still a decent crowd all the same, if only Sligo could hit a consistent run as they have an incredible support that are prepared to turn up at any cost.
1290 pats v dundalk
good crowd up from Dundalk.
1831 at Waterford v Bohemians. Good crowd considering World Cup quarter final was on.
Just over 3700 at Turners Cross.
I was quite surprised to see that figure announced as I would have expected closer to 5k than 4 for Cork v Rovers, but WC QF is a major attraction.
There should have been no reason why all games couldn’t have been played on the Thursday night for this week only.
271 in Bray today
Why was it on the Sunday?
Makes sense actually
Bohs v Sligo - 1,750
Shelbourne v Drogheda - 726
Finn Harps v Longford - 637
Poor enough but that win I'd say will bring more out the next day
637 at Harps Longford
Harps v Shelbourne - 842
Disappointing to see less than 20 Shelbourne fans.
Waterford v Rovers - 2378
Don’t have a figure but Ltfc v Wexford was lowest crowd of the season. Didn’t look to be more than 200 there
1040 @ Lims v Waterford
850 was announced at the Bray v Cork game.
Galway United vs Cabinteely 581
Excellent away support from Bohs at Oriel.
Nearer 2,000 at the Derry city v Pats game.
Mark Farren stand was almost full as no one was checking tickets to get access to it.
Yes noticed that, they had a very good turnout on the away terrace and a good few in the stand too, fair play for 7pm on a Sunday.
It might only be less than 50,but I think more were actually at this game (3,139) tonight than the Tallinn or AEK euro games (3,100 restricted capacity)
By chance I just saw an article about average attendances per club so far this year in the Brazilian serie A. I was amazed that some massive clubs there have fairly mediocre attendances. Vasco de Gama -7k. Botafogo about the same. Santos circa 10k. We're talking about super famous clubs here with massive traditions, in hugely populated cities in a soccer obsessed country. Maybe our meagre attendances aren't so terrible after all.
Our attendances are compared to the English game and GAA rather than our contemporaries in Europe. We're roughly on a par with the likes of Serbia, Greece, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Belarus. Generally though, there's one or two teams in those leagues with much higher averages.
We don't do too badly, all being said. The problem though is just facilities here. Our stadiums are so far behind many European leagues.
