2,193 isn't great for the first game of the season - especially since we brought 250 of them; I know the weather was sh!te an' all, but maybe €20 into the ground and €25 into the fancy stand is a factor?
You must be new here. :confused:Quote:

True. Fair play to Bohs. They had a big crowd down.Quote:

If the foot.ie figures were good enough for Genesis... :p
Should be interesting see how City official attendances will tally with estimates. I won't see a home game for a few weeks so won't be able to judge. For what it is worth in think estimates at the cross improved over the years as easier when seated sections than terraces - very hard to estimate old shed.
I just showed my season ticket to the steward and went through the turnstile, which works when you press a button on the side. Unless the turnstile has a counter, I don't know how they will tally the numbers. My son brought his friend who had to buy a ticket and was given two at the kiosk:ball:
I don't think those turnstiles have counters but I might be wrong. Anyway, 1626 given as the attendance in our match report on extratime.ie. Don't know where they got it from.
It sounds about right though, judging by a post from a fan in our forum saying "well over 1500 I would think".
Are all tickets at Galway being scanned or is it just season tickets?Quote:

just the season tickets works excellently. Everybody pays into Terryland now and Match Sponsors also have tickets issued to them so the guestimates are a thing of the past.
Were they ever likely to exceed much more than this anyway ?Quote:

Is that official?Quote:

what was the off attendance of pats game last nite?
Are you taking the pish or what? I very much doubt the league win has inflated your crowd so much that you'd be squeezing in 5k every weekQuote:
