No problems apart from the worst officials of all time!!!!!!:confused:
heard there was only 50/100 drogheda fans at the bohs match :confused:
So? Whats the point of this post in the attendance thread?Quote:

Franchise are in huge trouble both on and off he pitch if that keeps up. Just goes to show you, money cant buy you success. How much is Zayed on a week? We have only 17 panel members who are all on an average €150-200 a week.
Passion and tradition are priceless.
Well, a small group of your fans did try and smash our bus with a fecking brick. ****ing horrible throw though :PQuote:

Oh f*** me, not this again, what is so hard to grasp about this?
Yes, Mick Devine was on a big whack at Cork when he left. But he is now part-time at Waterford, having got a job for himself (with Uhlsport I think), so yes, that is what he's on. But jaysus, don't let the facts cloud your world view gael.
It obviously rankles with you, but our budget this season is tiny, getting down towards what you were supposedly on last year (though I am not claiming it's as low as that). That is why even with the poor crowds a fundraiser a fortnight is plenty, thanks. ;)
2,000 odd at the Showgies last night. Although i'd say a good 300-400 were freebees with a local soccer club in attendance. Still counts though i presume?
Handy away support of 200plus
Around 1800 in the Showgrounds. 1500 main stand. 150 in total behind the two goal areas. 150 in Jinks Avenue and the Galway support was close on 100.
Athlone Town vs Mervue United
Offical attendance 404
We do have plenty of kids no arguing that. Its what we are trying to do in order to get new fans. Kids get a season ticket for 5 euro in their schools and the parents pay in for themselves but please dont exaggerate the facts thanks.Quote:

There was way more than 200 odd payed in. Fail to even see how you could come up with that stat. It amazes some of the crap people come up with in here
Agree with you about the passion part but your tradition aint getting many through the turnstiles. (apologies to decent waterford fans)
.
No way was their 300-400 from Cliffoney/Grange and definitely not '200 plus' Galway either.Quote:

Pointless argument really but...so was I and there was not. '100 tops' is even mentioned on your own forum.Quote:

Because i came into the ground myself at around 8 o clock. 15 mins after kick off, even missed our first because i forgot about the 7.45 kick off, but i had a good look at them then and honestly thought they had around 200. (And i ask myself why I have have to answer to a pointless Q)Quote:

My guess would be 1200 at the Showgrounds last night and I would think that the Galway support was 80 to 100 and no more. plenty of empty seats in the main stand.
A few people have mentioned cup attendances for general interest. I'll follow that example.
UCD's Leinster Senior League team was watched by ~70 people as Arklow Town knocked us out of the 2nd round of the cup today.
Yeah, that seems fairly spot on.Quote:

1800 sound right, nowhere near 200 from Galway, thats how much were up here in October I think and it looked like there was only just about 100 there last night.
Why is there always a bitchfest from Sligo and Galway United fans about the size of crowds?
It's must be even more annoying for fans of other Clubs who post here.
Move on.
So what your saying is: if you packed everybody in the ground into the main stand (incl people in Jinks, away fans, ppl behind goals) you would only fill the main stand 2/3rds up?Quote:

Maybe this may have been the case at 7.45pm kick off (because i came in at 8 o clock along with loads of people who forgot the game started at 7.45).
A lot more than that. They brought a decent crowd considering everything thats been going on at the club. I'd say its was 2,000-2,500. The Jodi was pretty much full except for that bit at the end were no one sits for some reason.Quote:

476 was the official attendance at the Harps-Kildare game on Saturday. Not sure if it was posted, but 440 was the official attendance at the Harps-Monaghan game the previous weekend.
Just told the att in office today J but I was told Saturdays att was up 16 people so the Mons game must have been 460. :confused:Quote:
