Conservative guess of 3,500 at City Drogs today.
Limerick37 V Athlone= 538
i thought it did tbh. half the seats in the stand were empty and there were very few behind both goals and on the 'new stand' side. even those standing at the back of the 'old stand' were only one deep whereas for cork it was 3 or 4 deep. even section A was only about half full on friday
I was standing at the new stand so had a good view across the pitch, section A was not full and the Bray section was not either, but I have seen the stand with much less people and bigger attendances recorded, but we will go with the official figure, as I was not counting!
366 at Wexford v Cobh.
No, the weather was good. The crowds have been dropping steadily, but this is about half the previous lowest attendance for a league game. Looks like the results are turning people off, unfortunately. Maybe it's just a blip, we'll see on Tuesday against Limerick. Although I'm sick of looking at them this season!
L37 KCFC attendance anybody?
Just back from a week away, so here's an update. I've included tonight's games as well; just want to fill the gaps that have some up in the last week really. (2) is a game in the second series of matches.

I think 875 was our crowd last night.
Bray Longford was up on recent weeks. I'd say just around the 1000 mark.
1900 last night i'd say
Rovers V Pats 2800 Official figure
Shels v Dundalk was 1186. Courtesy of Fintan Cassidy
I would say about 600 at Cobh V Harps.
Athlone vs Wexford no official figure yet but would estimate about 370
In fairness the weather was awful all day long and with not much cover there unless you want to go behind the goal the crowd was always going to be hit.
Was shocked at how far from completion the new stand was.
Highly impressed with the bar though, it proved difficult to get out of :)
I'd go for 2,800 at the Brandywell v Galway. Very good crowd for a Sunday evening
They won't be back unless we start seeing some goals though.
160 mentioned for Kilkenny v Shels on the Shels forum.
Terrible crowd in kildare last night for the kidare rams match, would love to know official attendance.
184 what did you expect for a mid week game? a lot of dublin commuters wouldn't have bothered going.
jesus that was quick. thought there was less being honest but ok.
