Well, we knew they wouldn't be good. I thought it would be in the 200-300 range mostly, due to a lot of people not really understanding what happened and that SD Galway are just Devon.Quote:

Approx 2,500 in Jackman to watch Limerick vs Liverpool XI. About 300 Limerick fans and 2,200 local Liverpool fans. Hopefully the club made a few bob out of it. Was a pretty well put together match day in fairness.
State of the Limerick people.
Ser theres a good whack of skullys severance package sorted soQuote:

Irish city in having more supporters of massive English club than local club shocker. :bulgy:Quote:

Limerick FC: Coming for all of your managers as well as better players in the June break. :cool:Quote:

Ya a good few regulars I know didn't bother with it either. Come to think of it, saying 300 Limerick fans might even have been generous.Quote:

Kids swarming on the field at the end to get the autographs of never will bes while two Irish internationals stood on the grass bank.
People coming into the shop all day looking for "Liverpool match" tickets.
On the plus side the set up in Jackman was decent in fairness.
Happens everywhere. Least Limerick got a few quid off themQuote:

Thats not bad for the Setanta Cup as most fans of clubs claim to not care about it. Are St Pats unhappy with their crowds ? Bohs, with a very weak squad are still getting more supporters turning up at their matches than them.
I think thats the lowest attendence for the SC final ever. Not great considering the final was local to Crusaiders and not too far from Derry
It seemed like a loud atmosphere at any rate.
having been at every pats games, and a couple of Bohs games, thats not close to being true. Despite what their figures might indicate.Quote:

Not really sure what you are on about Dodge, are you saying that the Pat`s figures are under reported?Quote:

700 - season ticket /members/associate members, I doubt even Dodge is claiming that we are getting attendances of 6-700.
Understandable that Pats would be disappointed with their crowds given that they are challenging for the league and now playing decent football for once ( except when they play Bohs)
Dodge, perhaps you should clarify that statement. I know Bohs provide official verified figures so either Pats are giving incorrect figures or you are talking crap.Quote:
