It's the Monaghan-Kildare games I wonder about. They'd probably get away with not playing them at all and just taking 3 points each for the season of slog ahead.

Completely agree. Cant hear a word. Personally I think its so no one can claim the half time draw prize :DQuote:

My point is that your club is having similar difficulty in drawing the crowds. I'm not going to start being disrespectful to Waterford here. I just think your attendance appears to be on the decline, yet your team is having a successful year.Quote:

That would have accounted for about 30 I'd say! Plus there was a few caught up in the banjo experience judging by the crowded pubs around the town that night. I would have thought about 250 or so were there in total. I was surprised there wasn't more up from Waterford considering they're going for promotion.Quote:

Hi Pineapple Stu
Can you reveal the source of the attendances. I am currently doing a Masters and the LOI is my topic. I would like to get access to attendance figures but need 'official' sources.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards

How many at the Pat's game in the RDS?
About 4,500 - 5,000.
Suprisingly low turnout for the Derry V Cork replay. About 1,900!
The one's in bold are official figures and the one's that aren't in bold are guesstimates from fans of the clubs.Quote:

What I really need to know is whether the official figures are easily accessible from the clubs or does it take a great dela of sniffing around.
Fantastic. Just... fantastic.Quote:

Probably only over 1,800 paid in. I'm guessing of the 200 plus in the old Glentoran stand half of them were freebies.Quote:

And yes it was seriously horrible weather.

1,047 at Galway United V Cork City. That must be our lowest crowd for a league game this year? Interestingly, it was GUFC's first home win of the season.
Onwards and er, upwards...
I thought I heard 1400 or something from the announcer?? I'm most likely wrong though:o
