1441 in Oriel tonight
2,197 I think it was at The Box.
Slang since the 60s, at the very least.
Around 350-400 in Wexford last night I'd guess. Ten Harps fans made the trip, our third away game in a row and second to the south east in seven days.
That is some amount of travel that the Harps team and supporter have to do in a season. Think a one division league with a split at half way, would be a more suitable structure for Irish soccer.
Since playing Wexford at home, Harps will have travelled almost 2,000km before playing another home game with round trips to Longford, Waterford and Wexford in the space of three weeks. Longford also is our shortest trip of the season at a 360km round trip. We need to get out of this division.
Our last 6 games see us travel to Wexford again, for the third time this season and to Cobh for the second time this season as well as a trip to Galway. Mental amount of travel for us which has taken a large chunk of the budget away from the team.
This season, I've personally been to Dublin twice and Longford, Wexford and Galway once.

Christ, that's Hogan Park sort of awful.
Barry Ryan said on Twitter that there was 400 estimated to be there, for what its worth.
I'd be surprised if Barry had time to count the crowd, he was a busy boy.
738 at Eamonn Deacy Park.
About 12 people in Tallaght.
Little under 500 in Finn Park roughly.
2617 in Oriel (100-120 away fans)
Very poor if you ask me. Was Gaelic 1/4 finals on down the road in the Clan na Gael club and Meath and District games but still thought we would have hit 3000
Agree, you would expect more at Dundalk for such an important game.Looks like it was some game too. The crowd in Galway even looked less than the 738 figure given. It seems to be the old hardcore Galway Utd support, and it looks like the rest of the soccer family in Galway have not added to the attendance much.
What's the age profile of Dundalk's fans? I'd say you could take a few off for Electric Picnic and it's anything like Dublin, a lot of people will be heading into town rather than going to games. That's no excuse for Rovers' ****-poor attendance though, it mostly kids there this evening.
