ye u mustve missed the other 700 or so....dont worry though could happen to anyone.
how many rovers fan do you honestly think were there....?

There was roughly 750-800 Rovers fans and about 250 max in the main stand so the attendence of 1443 announced was utter horse$hit.
on a side note- how much are finglas paying kirby. great player to have in your side.
fingal are a good side to watch. Rovers are not as attractive to watch shall we say.
250 rovers fans in the main stand :) This thread is priceless :)
Ha this is so funny.
The main stand holds 800, it wasnt exacly full i wouldve thought 750 maybe, there wasnt that much empty seats not that i counted but wouldnt have been more than 50-100. When Rovers scored there was maybe 50 (max) who stood up and cheered... so unless there were alot of rovers fans staying quiet that leaves fingal with 700 or so....
The only reason i doubted the 1492 figure was because i didnt know how many rovers brought, i couldnt see and my guesstimate wouldve been less than 700.
But it mustve been, 750 plus 700+ = 1450+.
800 rovers fans already for juventus :D
We scored more than juve did against you :)
Yeah but they also scored against you. 3 times.
Aertel giving 1500 as the attendence for Bray-Shels. That seems a bit on the high side for me. Any Bray fans have a better estimate? I'm not too familiar with The Carlisle Grounds.
I'd trust the judgement of the FAI or the Evening Herald before I'd trust the judgment of one of the "reporters" on Extratime.ie
There was maybe 1,000 there tops yesterday. The Shels fans didn't even half fill their side while the Bray fans were about the same in their stand.

If there were 750 Fingal in that stand, I'll eat my laptop.
I would have said 7-800 Hoops and about 300 Fingal.
My guess from watching Gleth's highlights video is about 500, in that stand.
Nah. There wasnt 750 in the stand. About 500. The stand was over half full by my estimate from looking at it on mns.
Just to answer Dodge. The stand for the away fans would hold a lot more than 800. Not sure exactly how much but at a guess id say between 1500 and 2000. Im sure someone else might know the exact figure
Ye when i watched it on mns it looked less than what i remembered. But i still thought it was mostly full., i was surprised at the official attendence though
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morton_Stadium
800 so yea.
535 at Limerick Athlone
1560 at City Wexford. amazing what a few good results can do. Hopefully it stays up.
I would call Dundalk v UCD at 1150
shocking
Waterford United v Shelbourne was 580 official figure as per extratime.ie.
Work is set to start on the new square end stand at tallaght stadium at the end of the season :)
Lowest crowd of the season, hopefully the better display and a return to winning ways soon will attract more for the next game v Bohs.
Also it might be more enjoyable for many to attend in future as the club banned a group from last night, same crowd who travel to away games in a mini bus and caused some trouble in Sligo last week. They staged a mini protest outside the ground last night and tried to get other fans to join them. They were very unsucessfull and they certainly wont be missed. Well done DFC for taking this stand.
Derry V Monaghan 1,471
Seen them clowns on the way out of the Showgies at the end if the game. Drunken fools mouthing off, they weren't too lippy when a few of them got put into the back of a few cop cars. Didnt seem to be any trouble during the game tho.
Did the cops let them go home that evening? - should have left them in the cells for the night and turfed them out the next morning, to get their own way back to Dundalk.
Fair play to Dundalk for taking this stance with them.
They are simply hoods masquerading as Dundalk fans.I was mortified by their behaviour in the showgrounds last week.When Hatswell made the mistake that led to Sligos goal,these knackers tore down a flag/banner dedicated to him that had been brought over to the match by some visiting Cambridge Utd fans(Hats is an ex CUFC player).They then stole a handbag from one of the same group.
Dundalk FC identified those involved and banned them.They will not be missed.
200+ at the town salthill game, possibly 250-300, for those of you who disagree in between being angry and bored i counted the crowd outside of the main stand and in section a of the main stand, 120 approx there.. so easily 200-250 altogether
About 70 at Harps-Mervue game Im told
This was the statement issued, thankfully it was carried through, too many times things like this are announced by clubs and nothing is actually done.

About 450 in Bray. 500 at a push. A good 75 Rovers fans there too.
The Times has Bray v Sligo as 527, 679 at Galway v Fingal, 1269 at Pats v Drogheda and 1200 at Dundalk v UCD for what it's worth.
