Attendances 2014

Other stuff going on in Town last night would have taken a couple of hundred off crowd last night with Buccaneers playing a rugby game and I believe top junior side Willow Park playing and going for seven in a row CCFL titles which they achieved.

As for attendance given our new ticket scanning system hit a few glitches early in night resulted in tickets dailing to scan. So could add another 150 to that as I would have thought 1900 myself.

Some people stayed away thinking of the potential for something to kick off afrer witnessing Dubarry in 2006.

Main thing was night passed off without incident and all got home safely.

^:rolleyes: Stop making excuses! First home league game in how many years? I'm gonna guess that you are involved at the club?

@dundalkfc Attendance of 1,654

A little disappointed with this even with very small away support.

Poor crowd in Richmond last night, over 1,000 but not by much. It will be even lower next week as we play Limerick at quarter past 3 on Saturday, I'd be surprised if we got over 1,000

2500 estimated on extratime. I think somewhere in between is about right.

Extratime gave 2.5k estimate last night? Very poor, did Pats do any promotion for the game, you would expect the owner would have know some marketing people that could come up with some ideas. Was there at 2 games last year and lovely soccer played by Pats, maybe location of ground does not help?

Wow, it wasn't anywhere near that.

I thought a couple of minutes before the start that it wasn't a great crowd, but it filled out a bit. In particular, the "new" stand (as someone who doesn't visit the ground that often) is kind of deceptive; the main stand does be that bit emptier as the crowd is spread out more. 1000 is way too low anyway.

Decent crowd in bray last night, I'd say about 1100 at it, thought sligo would have had a few more. Extratime is wrong in this case with saying 550.

what happened in Dubarry Park in 06 that puts off Athlone fans from attending?

We lost.

There may have been some Bebo Brigade stuff at it as well. It was the Galway game a few weeks later that I really remember them shaming the Club live on TV.

Organisation wise it all seemed to go off well last night at least.

Crowd trouble in the ground and around the town when the clubs played in the FAI Cup Quarter Final.

1100? Get real. Extra time is spot on.

Extratime was wrong. 1100 was about right.

extratime is 100% wrong on the Bray game, 1,000 min

Unless you sawyed them in two and counted then, there is no way there was 1000 in Bray on Friday night.

400-ish in Tallaght. Was fairly disappointed with the crowd to be honest. Thought more Rovers fans would make the trip in. Stephen McGuinness, Paul Osam, Trevor Crolly all interested spectators, as well as a handful of the Rovers first team squad.

50 or so from Harps down.

Harps v Shams B or Utd/Pool and Spurs/ Arse. Tough decision that.

Sheesh, are you the guy who gives the extratime.ie estimates? You have 4 or 5 Bray fans on here telling you more than 1000. Last year I objected to an over estimate and an under estimate and was shot down on both occasions. No on is on here making it up, just want a bit of accuracy as our club don't/won't give anything official. 1100.

If its accuracy you're after forget about 1100. Half that nearer the picture. I am now resigning from this debate so you can have the last word on it.
