They seem to use Klubfunder for tickets….

Doesn’t seem to be any games there at the minute,I’d say they’re pay at the gate for alot of games aswell….
1668 at the RSC last night. Best atmosphere of the season too.
Looked like the smallest crowd of the season in Inchicore today, around 1900 there I’d say. Decent Sligo following, the away section in the main stand of 250 was pretty much full
The European ocasions are a massive distraction and people make choices. Rovers smallest league crowd of the season was against drogs straight after the ludogarets match 3000 approx. Will be interesting to see the attendance Sunday against dundalk. . If it was Friday night and no European game I'd expect 6500 at least.
Weekend games always dramatically hit our attendances. Was disappointing but still expected really.
Derry- Shamrock Rovers sold out last Friday.
So take 3.7k, minus whatever.
In fairness to Pat's they did an email marketing campaign to try to entice people who had been in Tallaght on Thursday to go again on Sunday.
I got an email thanking me for my support and Thursday, and announcing that for Sunday's game there were 3 FREE child tickets for every general admission ticket bought - an incredibly generous deal really.
Yet still it was the lowest attendance of the year...
Rovers and Dundalk on a Sunday at 7 pm now thats gonna be a bad time for lots of fans then a game again on Thursday 4.5k would be very healthy IMB. South and west stands now sold out for home ferencvaros game so you would expect the east to follow suit with maybe some walk ups on the day to make it a capacity attendance.
2265 at Turners Cross, for the visit of Waterford. Not great for a top v third game.
Is it me, or has there been a bigger drop off than usual in crowds this Summer ? Is it the weather, or what's behind it ? Seems strange in the First anyway, given how competitive and entertaining it is this year.
Its quite likely, similar numbers may be heading off on holidays, but its more noticeable because the fall off is from a much higher average attendances. I dont think the weather would have made a major difference bar this weekend's heatwave, we've pretty much avoided temperatures above the average, though less rain which should generally help attendances. I think we all suspected that the 1st and 2nd round surge in crowds could fall off as there was some post pandemic novelty in play. Hopefully heading in to the final round of game crowds will be up again for the run in if things are tight so everyone should be hoping for a Dundalk win on Sunday- for the sake of the league and all that.
shocking crowd for a huge game, good waterford crowd too. monday game + holidays but still would have expected 3k for this one.
It is a bit to be fair. We had to increase certain ticket prices to deal with extra security etc.
But either way, people just have less money to spend. To be honest it's been amazing the crowds have been as healthy as they are. Imagine if people had disposable income to burn?

City will probably bring that 2265 shocking attendance in away support down to St. Colmans Park on Friday night for the away game with Cobh Ramblers! :confused:
I'd estimated 1,700!!
Great atmosphere created by the Blues fans alright - had we managed to stay ahead for more than 8 minutes maybe things would have turned. Well deserved win in the end, I was unsure about the 2nd penalty but on the balance of play Waterford deserved it. I guess it's a pity for you that you didn't back it up last night but down to 10 men after 8 minutes you did well to get a draw.
You'll definitely be a very tough team to beat in the playoffs.
Harps v Sligo - 1,230. 130 away fans scanned in.
1953 in Cobh tonight. Was supposed to be a limit of 600 tickets available for City but I'd say you could easily double that number.
Definitely a smaller crowd than usual up from Sligo,they'd always usually be the second biggest after Derry in terms of an away following that come up,Bohs took more in the cup a couple of weeks ago,I suppose their domestic form has taken a hit after their exploits in Europe.....
450+ at Longford v Wexford. Maybe 30 away fans who brought great noise with them, actually a really good atmosphere at what was an enjoyable game
5525 for Rovers/Dundalk last night ….
Last weekend of school holidays too played a part there too I'd say.
Was in the ticket booth there were a lot of late arrivals on friday though, usually from about 7:45-8:05 would be busy then just stragglers after that , but it was 8:20/8:30 before it calmed down on friday. I say a lot saw the good weather in the evening a decided last minute to head to Finn Park
The NI Football League has revealed a 32% increase of fans.

Just reading back over this but how exactly is a crowd of over 2k on a Monday in a first division match "shocking". :D
Cork's attendances have been brilliant and that's still an attendance that few clubs would achieve in the first division, even on a Friday. Unless it was a night to seal the championship. Cork will probably have 5 - 7k if they get to that point.
I think you have to poke at those figures with a stick to get to the facts beneath them.
Anyone who's been to watch Warrenpoint play can confirm that the club literally has feck all supporters. So if they posted a 75% increase in attendances then that would reflect 1) A small increase from a low base, and 2) Mostly driven by away fans.
The attendances in the north are good for the regional clubs like Coleraine, Larne and Ballymena. Much less so for the Belfast clubs, given the size of their city. Linfield's average last year was less than 3,000. For a club that dominates pretty much all the time and has the best stadium on the island in a large city, that is pretty poor really. Also - as European money means that Linfield is likely to continue dominating the IL, surely the attendnaces at other clubs will tail off longer term as it becomes even more of a one horse race?
There were 11,000 in for the League Cup final back in March in Windsor Park. If they can get that sort of a crowd in for a League Cup final, you would have expected something similar for the play-off round for a potential first ever European group stage qualification.
