That's what I thought too. Although there was a small block at the end of the Jodi that was kept empty, the rest of it looked well full. There definitely looked to be 4000 there I thought.Quote:

Is that official ? Great crowd for a mid week game if so against a team down at the bottom. Just proves how wrong the journalist's guesses are. They had it down at 1,200.Quote:

Edit: it was fecking freeezing too.
342 I'm reliably informed was the attendance at Limerick Wexford
Which is a very good crowd for us for what is essentially a dead rubber on a Thursday.
Bizarre when you consider the New Stand alone holds the guts of 1800.Quote:

Athlone Town vs Longford

Seasons end cant come quick enough
I came in late and didnt take in the crowd nos.. Battery Rover I heard that we brought as many fans as ye but it has got bad for both our clubs when its typical we can get 150 people a lot at our games..Quote:

The Star yesterday had 1600 or someting for Bray and Drogheda
Yeah, it was a great crowd. I couldn't get my usual seat behind the dugout, so I had to sit down the end with a load of kids. Very unimpressed! I wouldn't have said there were that many there though. Rehab Bingo Stand was maybe 90% full, but I wouldn't have though there were 700 Drogheda supporters across from us.Quote:

Read in one of the papers that Pike rovers had 1200 in a cup gain last week against fairview rangers i think it was but open to correction.
That seems a bit more like it.Quote:

Great crowd though - hope most of them are still coming next season.

In retrospect, slapping him probably wasn't the best course of action...
Only in the legal sense.Quote:

I've siad it load sof times on here. The actual numbers don't interest me. Anyone who goes to games can see the crowds and make their own minds up.
I noticed that Bray crowd too on MNS, the stand looked to be almost full, did Bray do any family promotions ? Looked to be a really decent atmosphere too, fair play to them. Almost starting to look as if the PD would be worse off w.o Bray nx season ! although in saying that we were shocking in all 4 games this year lost 3, and robbed the first win on day 2.
At least twelve hundred by all accounts in town (I wasn't bothered going myself)Quote:

I checked the Irish Times today, they had a crowd of 2,588, thats a terrible crowd for a FAI cup semi, it seems Sligo took a really good support, but its wasnt long ago cup semi`s got close to 5k.
Nothing in for UCD v Dundalk & Fingal v Galway yet.
Its hard to estimate the crowd we brought when your in among them but from my guess it was about 800 or 900.Quote:

Sure we got over 4000 just last year at the Semi vs Waterford, ya couldnt move in the Showgies.Quote:
