Must have been 3000 at least in Richmond tonight. It could be a tad more.
Drogs Twitter has 2158 for v Dundalk last week.
And are reporting an average support of 1474.
Exactly 7,385 apparently:Quote:

Pretty much impossible to expand on that I presume? Very tight location on all four sides.
Good to see Cork football back on its feet. They are tough gits but vital to have a strong cork side in the premier.
Incredible first division attendance, great to see buzz back around Cork.Quote:

I didn't see either game but I suspect Caulfields agricultural tactics play some part?! *fishing rod cast*
If Galway and Cork both go up this year it'll be a big boost for the PL.
Galway football also having a moment too it seems.Quote:

Actually Galway won 1-0 down here earlier in the season and then we won 1-0 up in Galway.Quote:

About 400-500 of that were Derry supporters too. Would have hated to see what the crowd was like if it weren't a derby game.
Wow ! You'd have thought an early kick-off on a sunny day would have helped the crowd (even if it is holiday season).Quote:

About double that I think …..Quote:

Puke football only makes it worse again.
Estimated 1,500 at Showgrounds last night, I think I read on a Facebook page!
Fans not very happy with the home performance, going by the comments! :mad:

No surprise people aren’t happy. Been awful most of the season and there’s been no change since Russell stepped up unfortunately.
