Thought there was a bigger Bohs crowd there than usual, but fewer from Shels.

You can compare it to previous seasons - 3321 last year; 4000 and 4500 in 2004. You could compare it to other Dublin derbies - 3492 and 2423 for Bohs-Shels in 2004, 5140 and 3247 for Bohs-Rovers in 2004 and other figures. It is a low crowd for that match.

that was me, when i thought about it after i knew that was way too much, i meant to change it but forgot. i'd say a disappointing 1350 is fair

i was suprised at the Derry Crowd saturday night. a maximum of 2,500. very few outside the stand

Speranza

Given the seating was packed to capacity the crowd was well over 2,500. I would say approx 3,250

Brutal Attendance Whatever way you look at it Shame this type of games Goes on in our Top Division

I was looking at the photos of the stand Poor Student took during the second half, and I'm not so confident in that 150 figure any more.

From pics I've seen, it doesn't look far off.

No. Don't you understand the difference between thinking that a source is generally unreliable and wrong in a specific instance?

The only positions I've stated on the attendance have been that:
1. Pineapple Stu counted ~150
2. Having reviewed the photos, I think that was well high.

I did a count and got 151. But that would include club officials, players, others who didn't pay (I only got in at half-time), etc and who probably wouldn't be in an official count. (Where'd that official figure come from, anyway?) I was counting from the Des Kelly stand though, so I wouldn't be surprised if I counted a gray space as a person wearing a gray jumper or something. But it was fairly low alright. Had a conversation with someone in the Des Kelly from Block G in the Jodi at one stage. (I say conversation...it actually went "Rogers you w@nker!" "Shut the f*ck up, there's kids present!"...and the person replying was only about 14...)

Incidentally, "official" figures are often nonsense in this league. But they're often stupidly high, not low.

I'm sorry that you failed to understand a couple of simple sentences. I didn't even use any big words. :rolleyes:
