He also said there were only 3,500 at the Harps game. Most people reckoned there were 6,000.
We have over 1,600 season ticket holders.
So 1,600 + 1,500 =3,100

So apart from the Pats derby your biggest crowd was V Derry!
I'm not on your forum but would you post that on there as I've read that we don't even bring a 100 down even though for that particular game we had 11 supporters clubs travel for it. We estimated that we had between 400-500 at it.
Thankyou.
Curiously, I have youz up 6% this year and 42% the previous year, and it's pretty much entirely official figures for 2006 to 2008.
1286 official; just goes to show how wrong guesstimates can be!
Shows also that you can take unofficial figures here with a huge pinch of salt.
Anyway, update after the last few games cos I've missed a bit... Clubs who give official figures are in bold.

Harps v Galway (600 or 1185?)
Kildare v Monaghan

Shels v Athlone
1,700 was also mentioned but of course you chose the smallest figure.
ANy mention of the Pats home UEFA game. A tenner in and a euro game. WOuld hope is was about 2500 at least
Eh, Athlone game was around 650. Will try for an official attendance and update later.
Yeh I can't remember the exact figure tbh.
christ on a bike we have awful attendences. id say out of all premier division teams ours is the worst when you consider drogs' situation
our game against dundalk i reckon there was a crowd of approx 400-500 100 were from dundalk.. waterford game there was 350 people at it,wexford youths i assume was the home game very poor crowd of 250
I believe the crowd at the Harps game was probably a lot closer to the Star figure to be honest. It was a good night and there was a fair few people spread over the Town End Terrace and the gantry side of the pitch.
Galway Vs. Derry anyone?
GUFC vs Derry City
1,048
When it comes to official attendance figures in the English league they count season ticket holders whether they turn up or not. I dont know whether it is right or wrong to do that (and whats more I dont care) just sayin is all!
It was at least that. I'd say we had less than 100 spare seats (considering the "singing" section was overcrowded). 2,700 would be my guess
And no way should season ticket holders who don't attend be counted. Makes a mockery of any figures that have counted them IMO
641 for Shels Athlone
terrible crowd in drogheda on fri (v bray) i'd say max 1000 but prob only 800. i've been there a good few times and this was the worst crowd i've seen.
about 70 travelled from bray in there coloured shorts and sun glasses!!!!! :)
According to the match report in yesterday's Connacht Sentinel the attendance at the match was 1185.
There wasn’t much of a crowd at the derby match last night between Bohs and Rovers. 3000??
I would have thought this being a ‘big’ derby you would have got at the very least double that amount. Also thought the atmosphere was pretty low key as well.
But they don't so please move on.
I thought the Rovers crowd was smaller than what they normally bring, not having a dig, it's understandable considering the weather, tv coverage and their league position. I'd say there was about 2500 in the Jodi and 1000 in the Connaught street. Disappointing crowd really as was said above.
I would have thought 4000. As well as the weather and TV, it was the first of three games in five days if you count the friendly this Saturday.
We'll get an official figure in due course anyway.
I think 3,000 is about right - the Jodi was full down the F/G end, so i went up to C where there were a fair few seats and A and B were half empty - so say 2,500 in the Jodi. Being up that end I could see the Rovers fans in their full pomp, and I wouldn't say there was more than 500. As to why we don't get more; a few reasons - there was 4,700 (i think) at the first derby of the season in Tolka in similarly bad weather - we seem to bring more to the away fixture these days. At that point of the season, Row-fuss were still looking like they might do something - at this point mid- table mediocrity again is all they have to look forward to, Scully is not popular, and their home crowds have been falling. Add to that the fact that in July/ August a fair proportion of fans are likely to be on holidays, and add to that the fact that it was a Tuesday and therefore getting ****ed afterwards to celebrate was probably out of the question for a lot of people, and you're some of the way to the answer. And add to that the fact that 95% of fans have no appetite for teenage dirtbags throwing shapes outside before and after....
If a Bohs/ Rovers game is ever important again in terms of the destination of the trophy for BOTH sides then you'll see real crowds.
What did you think of the football, Steve?
I think Bohemians are pretty comfortable on the ball and knock the ball about well, Shamrock Rovers though seem to be more route one. I’d say the game was entertaining especially for a derby game. Your man Fenn I think was the outstanding player of the night, played very well and on that performance could play at a higher level.
I would certainly like Linfield to entertain Bohemians in the CL next season, I think it would be a fantastic match which could go either way as I don’t think there is much difference in standard.
Guys just wondering what difference do yous think it will make with Rovers moving to Tallaght next year. Will they see a big increase in attendances. Its a bit too far back in my memory when they used to be at Milltown
Around 13000 at Kiev vs Drogs :)
