Restricted capacity in United Park is now 3,000 with the new barriers put in the home terrace. With that I reckon there was 2,500ish at yesterdays sh*te.

from best estimates there was a huge turnout of home support for our game.. I could be wrong but I thought that at least 1000 people at our game last night..
If I am wrong please correct me or Longfordian(whos in the know) what was the off attendance from our game?
The official crowd at bray-cork was 4,271 I think
Your original comment came across as petty and sarcastic - Black eye for a black eye, chipped tooth for a chipped tooth :)Quote:

Very impressive Derry away crowd from the reports and also encouraging to see nearly 2000 at the Wexford game.
The Kenny factor was a boost for the travelling support, and over 1300+ already sold for Windsor tomorrow night.Quote:

Would be great to see it continue alright but with the first game/first time ground for Blues fans/just down the road factors all in play the figure was always going to be way higher than normal. Somewhere about 700 away fans there I think. Will be interesting to see what Wexford get for the next home match, hope the figures stay up. No excuses for the home fans, it's a hugely impressive set-up down there, a great place to watch a game of ball. :)Quote:

Thanks for the positive feedback, but I would have to question 700 away fans there. The whole stand only holds 600 and WD had a quarter of that with others scattered around the side of the pitch. I'd say 300 in total. Kildare up next and you're right, that'll tell us what we should expect as typicalQuote:

attendances were up 30% for last seasons first week compared to the same figure the previous year.i wonder will they be up again this year.i doubt it as there was lot of derbies last season that boosted attendances in the first week.
are you for real?!Quote:

Add in people in the bar and people at the sideline and it's 100 tops.
About a 100 at Monaghan alright, I thought there was more than 25 of us though? Not much more, but about 30-35? Still though, they have the infrastructure lads :D:D
Susprised at you of all people Dodge, paying attention to a random figure like that.Quote:

Stu,
The official attendance for Wexford was 1,826.
I thought we had nearer half the stand to be honest, judging by the reaction to the goals, most of the stand side of the pitch, and a good few at the clubhouse end I'm told. Might have been just a touch over the top with 700 alright :o , but I'd say I recognised more than 300 people there individually. :DQuote:

Sunny Jim, I would have said there was a few more there even, up towards 2000. How many season ticket holders have ye?
Cheers Stann,
It doesn't really matter what the split was, as there were two sets of supporters making up a good crowd enjoying The Beautiful Game. The way the wind was blowing, we didn't really hear much of your songs but yez looked as if you were enjoying it.
Now I want an honest answer here, seeing that you said you recognised at least 300 of your lads at the game. Did any of you buy a pink shirt to bring home???:D
Stu, I reported the figure of 1626 from the match report I read on extratime. 1826 was the official attendance reported. Sorry.
Not to go off topic, but heard we sold 140 pink jerseys at the match, so perhaps 1 or 2 made their way back down the Ross road!
OK; changed now. Cheers.
1748 away fans at Windsor park.
About the same home fans.

Also I understand that season ticket holders weren't counted in the official attendance figure so you're probably right.
Harps have announced an official figure, I believe the figure Mr A gave on our forum excluded season ticket holders. Hopefully the club will continue to publish the official figures from now on.Quote:

My previous number did not include season ticket holders apparently.Quote:
