Just over 500 in Finn Park tonight I'd guess.
Would that be up or down on your usual nigel ??
Including a group of school kids that were in tonight. I guess we'll have to wait and see on the official attendance. Was up a bit on the usual though.
472 official figure at Finn Park (excluding about 70 schools kids)
Sligo sold out last week, or are they all holding out to watch the Champions in a couple of weeks?Quote:

Just to get this out of the way, I absolutely condemn racism but there is sometimes an alarming tendency to look for a racist element where none exists. I remember a few years back when Stoke were in the Championship, the pundits on a highlights show were laying into the Stoke fans for chanting "you black *******" at Michael Ricketts, when they were, in fact, shouting "you fat *******", which stemmed from his brief time as our resident-pie-disposal-man-come striker.Quote:

Prob 100 from Patricks.
He has always got a bit of stick from Pat's fans, Normal sort of stuff, Then last year he wrote an article on Extratime saying we always racially abuse him, which just isn't true, So he is not much loved by us, didn't hear any racial stuff myselfQuote:

Back to the actual topic, around 4,000 in Tallaght, maybe just under by my estimate.
I wasn't there but Zayed can be a bit over -sensitive in my opinion. Saying that, if there was racist abuse then the scumbags responsible should be kicked out of every ground in the country. Zayed does not do himself a lot of favours though; he complains a lot to the officials, team mates etc. Take how he carried on up in Dundalk a few weeks back.Quote:

Still never a penalty.
Yeah, 4,000 for me too. Might be less than that on Friday given it's in the middle of Derry and Dundalk in the space of two weeksQuote:

848 limerick shels
about 400 at the RSC for the game v Salthill.
2,459 in Tallaght.
About 12 from Galway.
What the hell was that about? Some sort of ground-hopper junkies or just masochists? Maybe Carlisle fans still in thrall to the Rod Squad?Quote:

on an aside Rovers number 7 was the best player on the field, small stocky winger. scored a cracker, seemed to have a bit of an attitude but definitely one to keep an eyey on. was two very young teams playing
That Paddy Kavanagh?Quote:

no, much younger. there werent anything close to first teamers involved. all around 20 I'd say.Quote:

1567 in the showgrounds
I'd say around 1,000 at Bray v. Bohs on a terrible evening.
Would have said there was a few more than that, only a few mind you :) between 1100 and 1200. Extratime had it down as 300 !Quote:

Well in fairness about 150 of them were there to see Pats go 13 unbeaten
3 goals is the mighty tally GUFC have scored at home all season and still 500 galwegians come out to look in a week when the county is in a state of convulsion over the hurlers
2,500 (estimate). from extratime.ie for Rovers V Dundalk.
Drogs v UCD - around 500 or so I'd say, Drogs v Pats around double that.
Would have thought the Tallaght crowd was slightly bigger than Friday so maybe closer to 3,000.
Would have thought less than that - 350 or so - but I couldn't see in front of the clubhouse.Quote:
