Who were caged into a tiny corner of the ground and given one toilet between 200+ people. There wasn't even a home support to be segregated from. Disgraceful treatment of fans by LTFCQuote:

Fair play!! Wouldve guessed 1000 rovers myself

Plenty room down the end of the Jodi. Would guess 2500 in total. Maybe get a better idea from MNS tonightQuote:

3691 the attendance in Turners Cross.
940 at Terryland for GUFC V. Drogs
Fair play to the 100+ Drogs fans travelled cross country on a Tuesday for a relegation dogfight.
Id say there was close on 2200 to 2400 at oriel tonight! About 20 odd Bray fans, mostly "aul" ones!
Yeah, there was a very decent away crowd at it. They made plenty of noise too.Quote:

including about 400 Rovers fans in the away section. They created a lot of noise - fair play to them.Quote:

2000 plus ? I wouldn't have though it was quite that much but there was a decent crowd alright and the home fans were excellent, especially in the 2nd half, created a lot of noise and atmosphere. Not much all 15 of us Bray fans could have done to add to it :DQuote:

Alan, around 150 from Derry. Alot of them arriving just before kick off.
Ok fair enough, away end did look packed on MNS, reminded me of our cup replay there in 2004, think almost 4,000 at that and the away end was jammers, but woudlnt have thought 1250 could have got into utd park for away fans, as their stand only holds 400 or so ?Quote:

Great crowd for a Tuesday night down here, including a very big Rovers crowd, fair play.
Would be about right.Quote:

Eh, the away terrace in oriel is the worst in the league by a good stretch.Quote:

Excuse my ignorance, but what is the advantage to Cork City for fiddling their attendance figures? Am I right in thinking that tickets are not liable for VAT in the south, unlike in the north?Quote:
