Not bad at all when crowds were down. A relegation scare gets bums on seats!
We'll see about that for the entirety of next season!Quote:

No matter what night and regardless of opposition it would be good to see the core support base break always 2000. Not so far off it but should be a minimum target.
On the irishleaguesupporters.com forum. Theirs a section that you can easily see every attendance. Is their somewhere easy to find them here?
1824 Shams v Waterford
https://foot.ie/threads/240739-Atten...=1#post2004247 was the last update(v quick search could be a later one),perhaps an idea would be to pin updates to the top of the thread.:good:Quote:

Should do so before this weekends fixtures now that someone has bothered me and brought it up..
UCD v Dundalk 788
Shams v Bohs 7021
Shels v Bray 1635
Wow. Some crowd in Tallaght.
And a great turn out in Tolka
Outstanding crowd at TS, a stadium record I hear. I doubt not many in L1 in England will beat that tomorrow.Quote:

7K+ at Tallaght is great.... when you consider the buffer zone between fans and first few rows blocked off this must be very close to capacity.
Fantastic attendance the whole area had a big match feeling, the public order unit where patrolling as far down as Kingswood.Quote:

I do think they could move a few rows back into play though they kill a good 250 seats.
Probably only 1 or 2 matches where it is a problem though and there were some spare seats as well, no one wss turned away AFAIK.
1962 at Turners Cross last night. Pretty good for a Monday, on the day schools are back.
1655 Sligo v Dundalk.
Two good crowds for a Monday night when the two home teams are down the table.
Good crowds for a Monday but no doubt would have been higher if they didn’t have to be moved.
I'd like to see average Monday/Tuesday attendances Vs weekends.
Absolutely no doubt that Mon/Tues crowds are lower. Tend to be more difficult for away fans (school/work night) and many junior etc teams train on Tuesday.Quote:

The games should be as regionalised as possible for midweek games, it would at least help.Quote:

I was thinking just over 3k before it was announced, so wasn't too far out, had this been a previous season with Cork challenging, it would have been around 3.5k.
Kudos to the Cork fans who made the long journey for this, around 50-60 on away terrace, probably another 50-60 in stand. Not sure I would be that interested if boot was on the other foot.
What was the crowd in Galway tonight?
The crowd was announced at "1,525".Quote:

Harps v pats 1054
954 Waterford v Dundalk FAI cup
Any estimated attendance for the Tunnocks teeth rot cup fixture?
I know it was a Monday night but a cup 1/4 final should have certainly broken 1k in Waterford. Any idea how many travelled down to the game? The whole Europe fiasco has done serious damage to Waterford FC - thanks no doubt to the once main man in Abbotstown, fans shouldnt really have abondoned the club to such an extent due to the supposed manipulation on one main individual that backfired!? Unless there is something else going on behind the scenes that is keeping the crowds from bothering. I'd have thought there was a stronger traditional hardcore base in Waterford than less than 1k.
Dundalk had about 100 down at it.Quote:

What a joke, Dundalk played a quarter final of the major Cup Competition in Waterford on a Monday night with less than 1,000 people attending. Why? I hear you ask. The answer–because the tie had to be re-arranged to allow Waterford pay Hearts Colts on Friday. What a joke. What a way to treat the League’s most prestigious competition. How can the F.A.I. Cup be treated with so little respect. I am sure the sponsors of the Cup were not best pleased. But hey it’s run by our glorious F.AI. it has to be a joke. I’m sure John Delaney is in his garden laughing his socks off as the F.A.I. lurch from one farce to another. Only good thing about it is that Dundalk won.
This leaves Shamrock Rovers, Dundalk and Sligo Rovers through, to be joined by the winner of Crumlin Utd v Bohs. Again due to the “magnificent” work of the F.A.I. the draw will be live at 8.30am on RADIO. Most prestigious Cup competition – I don’t think so
Potentially a great weekend ahead for Shels in the First Division. Surely the time has come for them to claim a place in the Premier Division. Hopefully they will win the match against the Drogs and clinch the title. I’ll be glued to the phone looking at their results. I know to my cost the feeling of Last Match Blues. To all the people travelling, get behind the team and enjoy the game, if that is possible.
I see that RTE, our national broadcaster are now showing a few League of Ireland matches as the season draws to a close. Well Whoopee and thanks for that. I don’t know what they have been doing since May. I understand the L.O.I. is a niche sport. I understand that it does not compete with GAA or Rugby as far as viewing figures are concerned, but Soccer is still the biggest sport played in Ireland and is a market that can be tapped into. Again it is up to the F.A.I. to negotiate a deal that includes the L.O.I. when they do a deal for the International team. But will it happen, you tell me.
What a debut for Jack Byrne, fantastic performance and showed what a L.O.I. player is capable of. He looked completely comfortable playing in the National Team.
Congratulations also to Stephen Kenny on his brilliant start to the U21 Euro qualifiers, showing that the L.O.I. can produce top class Managers as well as top class players.
And the usual display of grown men invading the pitch after a Rovers goal, like giddy toddlers who can't contain themselvesQuote:
