Dundalk is more than 10mins away and they brought a decent support :)

It'll be no coincidence when the figure dips dramatically when a full fixture list is played on a friday with Fingal at home.

In saying that though, it's still good to see a big attendance

There was a few sligo fans there as well :) It doesnt matter who they support, just that they came to watch us play.

You can't compare a trip from Dundalk to Fingal with Sligo to Fingal. Teams around the Dublin area(which is now everyone bar us and Galway) should bring way more to the games in Dublin area than they do.

Or us? Come back in 2 weeks time, if they've come to watch you play again then fair enough.

Considering it was Corks 1st home game. Is there any chance that they'll
show it on M.N.S ?

Did'nt see any television cameras there so i doubt it .

I wasnt comparing anything just saying that Dundalk is more than 10 mins from Dublin in an answer to a post and that they brought a decent support thats all. Im not questioning the support Sligo had on friday night

Or us? of course you as well cos you were playing us wernt you. A few St Pats fans have been in with our support a few times the last i know about was the shelbourne game at tolka. Point being that all are welcome and they count towards our attendance figures Fingal fans or not.

Approx 2,800 at Dlk v Drogs, lower than expected away supoport (200), and the change from Fri a big factor overall.

Same with us; there's turnstiles for freebies/season ticket holders and for paying fans, and a counter for both sets of turnstiles in the ticket office. I think this stuff about "season ticket holders aren't included" is nonsense alright (with the exception of Waterford, whose system is just nonsense).

Try using stacked, either line or bar, graphs much easier on the eye

Why was the change from Friday a big factor in the attendance at a local derby?

I think Sunday is just not a suitable day anymore, people have too many things on. Friday would have been much better, people are used to this now. Lowest turn out from Drogs for years, they only had 200 or so, we were expecting a lot more than that.

That's being kind. I reckon it was 150 we brought.

Looked less than that on the telly, 80-100 maybe. Very poor indeed, the mammies of drogheda certainly rule the roost.

Exactly, if that was the case the Nou Camp would have an official attendance of about 'zero' every time.

I make you right. but also, a large proportion of our support has all but disappeared over the last couple of seasons. Its depressing

Any figures from tonight's games ?

How do you make that one out, there is always thousands of day tourists that go to games at the Nou Camp as well as the Bernabeau. Same with old Trafford, no team has a capacity of their groudn full with season tickets.

About 1,000 in Belfield, as many neutrals as UCD fans. 45 Euro for adult and three 11 year olds!!!! Definition of child in UCD is apparently under 10, must be a cannon law interpretation?.
Needless to say wont be bringing the kids again. Interestingly, Bohs got slagged off for ticket prices v Fingal in this Forum because it was err 20 Euro for adult plus 2( ?) kids.

Not if they play the way they did last night. Novelty factor could wear off pretty damn quickly. Pats sold all 700 tickets they were allocated.

Not making excuses but that wind played a major factor in the result, junkies didn't look that good either...doubt Pats will sell 700 tickets for the next game in Tallaght..

Why's that? We've sold every ticket we've been allocated in Tallaght for 3 games so far.

If you're happy with the level of performance by Rovers and think that it'll encourage people to go to games, then fine.

Aye thought Rovers performance was shocking, I was just suggesting the wind didn't help matters ill its early days.
Shels had more fans in Tallaght for a friendly than Pats had for the 2nd league game in Tallaght last season. I expect the same will happen for the next Rovers Pats game in Tallaght...Saying you have sold every ticket for every game in Tallaght is bull****. Pats away support last season was abysmal I'm sure other clubs fans will confirm that....

Considering I had to get a friend to pick me up tickets from Tallaght, as did others for both games because we didn't get one for the away end (sold out) i'd tend to point out how wrong you are there , this year we got 500 sold out very fast and recieved an extra 200 which also sold out.

How on earth do you work out who's a neutral and who's a UCD fan?

803 was the official attendance. I think the half-time teams and their accompaniment came in the main gate and so wouldn't have been counted on the clicker, but 803's official, so I'll be going with that.

Best is to e-mail the club on the adult/child price issue.

Haha this is brilliant, Due to the segregation against Bohs we actually brought the biggest crowd to Tallaght last season and there probably wont be a bigger away crowd this season than what we brought last night, i didnt realise selling all ur allocated tickets and then asking for more was an 'abysmal' support

We absolutely sold out every ticket as I know quite a few who didn't get one for either game. Our away support last year was abysmal for other games. No question

However this thread is about this year, and again if you think last night's efforts will bring people bac, then good luck to you.

I'll happily welcome you back to mediocre crowds

Pats fans were a credit to their club and the league last night ,sang for entire game and mixed well with hoops in the boozer before hand,they will sell their entire allocation for Tallaght everytime,how many they will bring to other grounds is another story .

I wasn't even going to rise to that strange one. As there was at least 150 UCD fans, that would mean there were 500 or less fans from the Big Club.

Good idea of the away support there (and the complete lack of home support at the end)

This pic at this link shows the other site of the ground towards the end too
