I think some of the Longford lads were saying there was between 500-700 and Gortakeegan for their game. Anyone confirm this?

Thanks Peadar. Note the big drops compared with the final numbers. It looks like we'll be up on last year at least, but at best about level with the year before.

ours was high early on because of a huge 4401 turnout for our first home game.

we've been much steadier this season, floating around the same numbers, im sure it will drop off in the summer months but hopefully with a title challenge it can pick up again in the autumn

Worst crowd of the year so far in Oriel Park tonight, obviously loads and loads chose not to attend with the Rovers game on Monday and how wise they were as that was a dreadful game. 1,300 tops ?

Thought 1300 tops. Racing out at the track i reckon took some of the gate,but no excuses.:mad:
Poor turnout, with prob 30/40 Bray fans down who all enjoyed the Lilywhite bar hospitality @ h/t.

Around 500 at Youths - Waterford, 50ish from Waterford.

6000 tickets giving out for a i 105 party out in the dog track so think this would be the main reason for Dundalks poor attendance last night. Another factor would be that we are playing Rovers Monday night and people may be able to afford to attend one of these games. Also no disrespect to Bray fans but this game isn't exactly a crowd puller.

Anymore excuses there lads?!! (and yes, I know our crowds have virtually disappeared). Worst away crowd we've ever had in Inchicore last night as well I'd say. Don't know what the crowd would have been last night overall, but not much over 1,000 i'd say

Excuses? Its the truth. You arent good with truth in this thread WW.. :D

Your crowds have been down all year though haven't they - home and away. And everyone knows there is definitely not that much going on in Dundalk every week!! Novelty of being back in the premier finally wearing off?

Crowds have been down, with alot of factors involved and youl only call them excuses. FFS i105 give out some amount of free tix to the horse racing which did affect the crowd against the almighty Bray which is never a crowd puller. Il enjoy the novelty of seeing your boogey bus heading to the FD and see how many heads stick around for it, then you can come back and lecture on crowds.

Your 100% right Dunny,i105 gave away 5000 FREE tix to a gig AT A VENUE that is just two miles from Oriel Park and also had a 75 miniute earlier starting time than the KO in Oriel park ! If WW cant see that that factor might have affected the attendance at the match then he is simply on the wind-up :rolleyes:
