Wow! 1700000 at Cork!!! That's some exaggeration even by Cork standards!!! :D ;)Quote:

Looking at the Cobh/Kildare game on chorus there didn't seem to be anymore than 150 - 175 people there.

hhahahhhaha.....fair cop....... :D
Pretty much random guesses at 1500 at Bohs-Dublin City and 2000 at Shels-Waterford. Have put them in as such until I hear any better...
Poor crowed at the Dundalk/Kildare game about 400
Bohs V Dublin city more like 2100 or 2200 on Friday evening
Dublin City V Shamrock Rovers was around the 7/800 mark which wasn't bad considering england were on the box.
Bohs V Dublin City was nowhere near 2200. The Jodi holds 2750 or so and it was only about half full. Theres no point over-estimating the attendances so at a pure guess, I'd say around 1300.Quote:

Euro 2004 seems to be having a big impact looking at Dundalk, Cork and Bohs in the last week or two... :(
I'd have to say that the weather was almost entirely to blame for the poor turnout at the Cross ( and the fact that too many wimps didn't want to get wet ;) ). Bohs always draw a big crowd, normally about 5,000. There was over 5,000 season before last for a Tuesday night game.
2200 is a ridiculous estimate! I'd say we were lucky if there was much more than 1000, I haven't seen so many empty seats for a league game at Dalyer for a long while. :(Quote:

I think it goes to show that we should have a break in future during major international tournaments, imagine how bad the crowds would be if Ireland qualified.
2,500 at Pats v Shels today? That would be my guess anyway but someone who knows the ground better would probably have a better guess.
No Slash, I'd say 1800 or 1900
i would say no Official figure but lucky to top 400.We were expecting more than 1,000 but the televised game wiped us out.
Its ridiculous that we had a two week break for the special olympics but Euro 2004 wasnt taken into account.We had applied over 2 weeks ago to change to saturday at 5.00pm so as not to clash with the quarter finals but were turned down becauser you have to apply 16 days in advance anymore if you want a date change.
Ill be keeping a good eye on what happens with other teams when they try to switch games.
Finally well done to cork ye have done us all proud pity there i sno thread about yesterdays fantastic result!!!!!!!!!
Wasn't the two week break for the Special Olympics because the ref's were referring the football side of it?Quote:

btw the Thread on the Cork result is in the Cork forum. :cool:
Waterford United v Derry City 1000 aprox.Worst crowd of the season so far.Euro 2004 is really hitting crowds.Pineapple Stu how come Waterfords average hasn't come down as out last 3 crowds have all been well below 2000 but our average is still the same?
Waterford have dropped from 2900 to 2650 to 2529 to 2338 now. They didn't drop in the last one because they were playing away.Quote:

Will the FAI bigwigs cop on though...? :(
Couple of back attendances for Sligo here - 700 H v. Bray (lowest of the season) and 300 A v Limerick. They had 900 in for Galway-Sligo when the official is given here as 902, so they're not that bad it seems...
Might as well do an update so...

Weekend matches missing -
Longford-Drogheda
Athlone-Sligo
Bray-Kilkenny
Harps-Limerick
Monaghan-Cobh
Bray-Limerick
Kildare-Harps (last two from Monday)
So far, the Euro 2004 period has seen the lowest attendances of the season (per what we have here, for what it's worth) for:
Bohs (v. Dublin City)
Cork (v. Bohs)
Derry (v. Longford)
Waterford (v. Derry)
Athlone (v. UCD)
Dundalk (v. Kildare)
Harps (v. Limerick - very poor crowd, though no estimate)
Galway (v. UCD) and
Sligo (v. Bray).
That's nearly half the league, and it's not as if the majority of the games are against low-profile clubs which you'd expect to have relatively small gates anyway...
I'd say 450 -v- Kilkenny and 300 -v- Limerick but remember I'm terrible at estimating crouds.

I'd say 1,500 -v- Kildare, cant remember Athlone at all really(but if you forced me to guess I'd say it must of been around 600... just a shot in the blue though). Hope thats a help.
