ET is saying only 208 showed up at the RSC tonight for Waterford/Salthill.
1,015 at Richmond Park this evening according to Extratime.ie
2245 in Showgrounds.
309 confirmed at CCS last night. Good guess :)
432 in Finn Park. Dire crowd but weather didn't help, and those that stayed away will be glad they did after a terrible performance.
about 30 Athlone fans up.
UCD v Bray - 228
Shels v Derry - 636
Mervue v Cobh - 181
Those attendance figures are just depressing.
228 for the UCD-Unknowns game? I'd say I've been to more games at the Bowl than 99% of UCD students, and I went to Trinity and no longer live in Ireland. Irish people!!
Absolutely. I always go. Only drawback is it being in November - usually when it's freezing. Would get an even bigger attendance in May or June.Quote:

Watch out for our attendance next weekend v Drogs, who'll bring a fraction of that Rovers support.
It could be our lowest in quite some time for a league game.
5 clubs recorded their worst attendance of the season over the weekend.
Out of 9 games, that's desperate, weather or not.

Awful awful stuff, with the Premiership finished and the weather the way it is it really spells disaster for the league with figures like that. Got to ask yourself how far away the next club folding is with attendances as bad as that.
It's incredible that in this country, good weather STOPS people going to football matches.Quote:

1470 according to ET for Drogs/Dundalk.Dundalk had about 550/600.Didn't hear it announced but i'd say right.
Well why didn't you say so? You're welcome to cross the Dargle any time!Quote:

And now I'm homesick! :(
I was in Bray yesterday. Didn't smell like **** but there was a faint whiff of skanger about the place. I felt immediately at home, of course :)
Charlie, I bet you felt right at... oh, never mind.
What is this "Bray" place everyone is talking about?
A small town near Tallaght.Quote:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][COLOR=#303030]500ish Dundalk fans, prob more if you include the ones in the stand
What a night, Beat Pats on Friday and we are challengers for the title[/COLOR][/FONT]
Cork City v Drogheda Utd - 1,478
I'd have to do some digging, but I can't offhand recall an attendance as low for a league game at TX in some time.
Dundalk/Pats 1802
Athlone Town vs them 602
Is that the highest of the season so far for Athlone? not bad all things considered, and a figure to build on.Quote:

At a guess about 450 in Cobh last night, fair play to waterford who brought a decent crowd with them.
1,784 in The Showgrounds
1,519 at Bohs-Shels.
