Almost every Cork guesstimate has been out by 1500-2000 so far. I usually take 1000 off the lowest guesstimate and still have to reduce the figure when the official figure comes out!

You're obviously not looking at my estimates so ;) Got any examples...?

Also, go back to the early 30s in pages - Cork-Longford guesstimated at 4,000 but actual was 2,376, while Cork-Bohs was guesstimated at 5,000 (brought down to 4,000) where actual was 3,600. That's just the last three games!

Of course! ;)

You put in 4,000 for Cork-Bohs in fairness, versus 3,600 actual. In general, however, Cork attendances have been ridiculously overstated. Trust me - I've had to edit them every time! :)

I would treat �official� attendance figures with a degree of suspicion. It's in their interest to underestimate as well. Cough�revenue commissioners.

Pats -V- Derry: 1,295 (official att.)
Dont ask me how i know... :o

About 200 at the Athlone vs Monaghan game tonight including maybe 10 from Monaghan.

We made a poor team look like premier winners giving them too much room. Pain in my neck looking at the ball in the air.

TG4?

Not sure how they got that figure as main stand looked to be maybe half full plus same on Camac - from tv pictures...

Main stand had lots of spaces in it, was a third full if you scrunched everyone up together, that'd give 600. Maybe a wee bit more. No-one in the Shed or at the turnstile end. 1295 sounds about right, it looked around the same as most of our crowds recently, which have all been around the 1300 mark apart from derbies.

I'd say thats about right. 600 is the main stand, but on the other side when TG4 showed it. It looked like a fairly handy crowd from there. Shame the crowds are bad all around Dublin. I mean Shels are stuggleing to get 3000 at a home league game, thats not right. Their was 2000 at Bohs vs Bray says The Star. Not bad for a Thursday night.

How could 3406 be the attendance at Cork V Rovers? That would mean the ground was less than half full. My estimate would put the crowd at around 5000.

Sadly the star is talking out its arse. The official attendance was 1,110 one of the worst crowds I care to remember. Also the home game against UCD was something like 1,200 again not very good.

Rovers fans saying 1500 tops. 400 around the ground, 1100 in the stand (there's a picture of it up as well - looks fairly full alright).

you were at the game?

Pats crowds are announced at every home game - possibly the ONLY thing we do correctly and professionally - other clubs and shelbourne take note

Are the official site attendances a bit on the high side? (Think the fans have disagreed slightly with them before). Would it be fairer to reduce any attendance there by, say, 200?

There was no way 1200 there either, honest to God its one of my pet peeves faking attendances, I mean what exactly is the point in it :mad:

In fairness, the main stand holds 2000, in which case, your own guesstimate comes out at about 1200.

Ha ha, made yourself look stupid there lim til I die:D. I alway's get the attendance off the Rovers site, so if there's a mistake then blame them. Why would I wanna fake attendances?

id say

maybe just over 100 with about 20 from Galway.I wont comment on Dublin Citys existence.

The Cork City chairman usually gives the official attendance for the last league game in the next programme but no sign of the Waterford attendance in last night's programme.

Hopefully these figures aren't going to become top secret again.

City v Shels i'd go for 7000 as very few empty seats &plenty of people standing, shed also had more than official capacity.

I'd say it was closer to around 140 / 150, pathetic crowd, pathetic performance, come on whitehall.

Capacity is only 6500 sure? There were a fair few empty seats around - not many, but still plainly visible. Will wait for the official figure to come out, but if it's over 6,500, I'm calling for City to be docked 8 points for lying on their UEFA Licence application! :p

7500 Capacity.

Main Stand - 1850 (i'll assume that 100% full)
Derrynane - 1100 (i'd got for 900-1000 cos of empty Shels seats)
St Annes End - 3000 (i'd guess 2500)
Shed - 1500
Few hundred standing behind St Annes End & in front of the Shed.

I think 700 is safe enough, will be 2 weeks before official figure.

I find it very hard to believe you'd fit 3,000 people in the St Annes end tbh

Crowd was nothing like 7,000 at the cross last night. From what I heard, it might not even have been over 5,000 :eek:
