How many in Tallaght for Pats game last night?
Think it was around 6,200. Definitely felt fuller than the Sabah match.Quote:

Its certainly not a budget destination these days. If the American tourists stop coming the city is in big trouble as the prices are driving away domestic visitors.Quote:

With group stage football to come I guess it'll be something in the region of 70-80k in total.
It's possible only with European games and group stage games together, and even then I'd say you'd need Pats to qualify as well.Quote:

532 in Limerick
2693 in Waterford 1915 Drogs
587 Athlone
Why isn’t the full away terrace open in Tolka?
4830 was the attendance and the extended terraces each side of the shed were both almost empty. Bohs could have had another 500 in there and still been safe no problem as there were addition dividing railsQuote:

I thought it was linked to the low number of tickets Bohs give away fans.Quote:

I'd assume Shels closed part of the stand at Virgin medias request though as they did have a camera in the stand. I doubt the low number of tickets for Dalymount away end is an issue for Shels as they were emailing Bohs fans during the week with a link to buy tickets in the home end for tonight.Quote:

Truth is, shels have always vastly over estimated their support base. They just are not getting a big following last night proves that. Most likely mad mcduff was seeking an edge by limiting our numbers and hoping their phantom fans showed up. Didn’t work out too well .
From what I have read both of the extended terraces each side of the shed have a safety capacity of approximately 500.Quote:

Any reasons? :embarrassed:
No one likes them
Have Shels always been considered the smallest supported team of the four Dublin clubs? Rovers top, Bohs and Pats close second? I know Bohs historically would be closer to Rovers but over the past 20 odd years? Hopefully with upcoming ground redevelopment could we see both those clubs possibly settle at an average if 5k?
Well UCD then Shels, for a former milti league winner their support was small, 800-1200 could be at games. They have benefited proportionately by the most by the post covid bump in attenandances.Quote:

Being exiled in Harolds Cross for a few years didn't help either. That said, I also recall Bohs strugging on the fans and success front in the 1980s and 90s as well.Quote:

You would imagine though if either of those two were in Shels current league position all games would be certain full houses. Still though fair play to them for fighting to hold onto Tolka and building a presence off the field. I thought the possible move to ground share at the time would have killed the club or put it to the Leinster senior league.
3017 at Tallaght
Many Galway there?
Con Murphy said about 200. Sounded like it. Good support going to Tallaght usually from Galway.Quote:

(Other options being considered.... but to even bring this up, my god...)
So there might not be resources even for the half 11 match?Quote:

Different Garda districtsQuote:

They may as well advertise to every hood and skanger in town that it'll be a free for all on that day as their resource is tied-up baby-sitting 30+ year old middle class moms at Croke Park :D
I think it's not just the Coldplay gig and Bohs v Rovers match though. It's been a summer of unrest & protest. The few Gardai I do know are severely overworked. They could already be struggling to get enough bodies for the Coldplay gig then add onto that a derby match that kicks off so early it could easily be a 12-13 hour day for anyone who signs up for it. The government parties have a lot to answer for letting so many things get so bad in this country.Quote:

Why is a LOI game special?
Not to be so conspiracy based... but there has been an onslaught of negativity around the league in the last 2 weeks from Politicans and journalists/ media.
It is so very unlikely I don't even want to let myself believe it could happen, but Pat's causing an upset on Wednesday would be very fun to see how the wider footballing media would handle that narrative.Quote:

Ireland Inc. wants the working man’s game to get back into its little niche box and remember its place.Quote:
