It was a poor night for attendance across the board and not just for Sporting so change the record lads, and i doubt if shels would have broke any attendance records if they played at home last night.
Hard to judge how many were in the Brandywell.
But around 100 Rovers fans up there altogethor.
Shamrock Rovers have already sold 1,100 tickets for the away game at Oriel Park tomorrow night, should be a bumper crowd for Dundalk.
Have to agree about whats been said about mid week matches (especially when clubs have to go long distances mid week) - they should cut them out in the league imo.
Usually nearly forget about them myself!! Usually im buzzing for days before a match, but I forgot all about our match on tuesday, til monday night (and a lad at work who always goes to the matches was only reminded of it tuesday morning when someone said it to him :eek:!!)
F*** all buzz about them!
Champions league also clashes (not a reason to change it, but it is an additional factor!!)
Guys, just stop the bickering and keep it on-topic please.
In fairness to Rovers 1100 heading to Dundalk so far is fantastic,easily the best supported club both home and away by a long shot.Bohs must have the worst home and away support of any team that were ever challenging for a league title--2000 average home and 100 away??
Yeah it will be fantastic to see Rovers in Europe next year,would be great if they could draw a scottish side at some stage would love to see the away support-hard to beat what Derry bought to Gretna though
Derry V Sligo 1,723
1,701 at the Cross tonight. Must be the lowest in a long while for a league match.
1,471 at Terryland for Galway United V. Da Bohs including around 200 visiting fans.
About 4500+ at the Showgrounds tonight.
350 or so at the Bowl. Think a few Shels fans popped along and left rather disappointed. :)
I'd estimate 3,750 at Oriel Park for Dundalk v Shamrock Rovers.
Well thats bullsh!t because if you watched the match you could tell there was easily 4,500 people there, the paper never gets it right with LOI attendances either, and being 1,000 off is embarassing, just goes to show that they probably didnt even watch it. And besides, by yesterday afternoon there was about 4300 tickets sold.
Irish mail reported gate receipts of eur41,000 for Sligo v Wat`d.
Any idea of how many were at the game today?
Dont think it was announced but i would guess around 1200. Bray had around 250
Athlone Town vs Monaghan United Official 181

THE fans stayed away from Morton Stadium yesterday and Bray Wanderers didn't show up for 45 minutes either.
Before a crowd of fewer than 900, it was all too easy for Sporting Fingal to book their ticket to Irish football's biggest day in only their second year of existence.
With no disrespect to Sligo, we are on target for the lowest cup final attendance in the history of the competition.
I think the current low is set at 7,000 for the 2nd replay with Bray v Finn Harps in 1999.
I cant see this years figure exceeding that, maybe Sligo will bring 5,000, but after that its anyones guess.
I'd say the Tallaght effect will bring in a few floaters from the area and there's always plenty of other loi fans there.
4,000- Sligo
1,000- Fingal
1,000- LOI Fans
1,000+- Floaters
So....if my calclations are correct, I think it'll have around 7,000. They definately should put in additional seating anyway.
(As for the game yesterday, the stand was quite close to capacity, let's say 750. Adding in for Bray fans and others scattered around the ground I'd say it just reached the 1,000 mark)
I dont think you are too far off with that. Id say we can get 1500 or so with a good amount of those seeing fingal for the first time.
As for the crowd last night. We hit 1000 mark alright. Stand was basically full (stand holds 800) and at least 2 to 3 hundred bray on the far side.
Whats that supposed to prove. Its his guess, not fact:rolleyes:
Keep trying though.
But you are also guessing...no?
You are arguing the difference of 100 or so which is hard enough. What are the facts?
Just like Wednesday gone you try to belittle a post without giving the facts. When I asked about a sub 100 attendance you went off on one. The attendance was 201. 100 more seems to be your tipping point:D
