Be fantastic if we get a sell out (no idea how many that is, we had over 4k at a few games over years but these didn't sell out)
Great to see, Dundalk should invite Pats fans to the home end every week and you might see sell outs more often ;)Quote:

Giving us your manager and loads money on ticket sales. Maybe Pats really love usQuote:

3487 in Oriel.
2725 at RSC, important win for Galway which should give a boast for upcoming attendance at EDP.
1,582 in Finn Park. Think it was 11 away tickets sold.
Definitely seemed higher though..
looked like a 5k'er tbh. myself and a few lads didnt get our ST's scanned through the gates so id be rounding up;)Quote:

Some crowd to be fair by Cork City tonight.
With 500 Pats there, although didn't think away terrace was completely full, this means less DFC fans went than v UCD (3,140 or so), seems odd, but the Racing was on tonight in Dundalk and an evening meeting, always takes a few hundred off the gate.Quote:

By the by, across the road the Munster rogby boys had 8,000 for their game against Scarlets I think, all on at around the same kick-off. Serious traffic & crowd control in and around this area last nite, but a terrific sporting Cork public. Unique for any City in Ireland! ?Quote:

Missing Kerry v Treaty. Go with 1,300 sell out until an official figure comes through.
Longford v Cobh on LOITV looks about 2/350 at an estimate, most are in the stand, anyone else with a guess of the attendance! :confused:
Jaysus you're way out. Attendance was over 800Quote:

The location is a problem there. If that was in the town the sky would be the limit for them.Quote:

Yeah exactly, in general the core support of each club looks to have almost doubled from 2020.
The sell outs in the PD are obviously cool to see but I'd argue it's the first division not anymore being referred to as 'the graveyard' which is the most important development in recent years.
If the majority of FD clubs can average close to 4 figures attendances then we have a healthy-ish base to feed into what will hopefully soon be a completely professional top tier.
2nd to 5th qualifying for the playoffs is the significant development. There has been a reluctance in the Premier Division to take on a playoff for the final European spot.Quote:

Kerry are getting good crowds now, but it's too early to tell if that will sustain. Bray could get 4-figures on occasion, but if they're not doing well then they probably wouldn't have it consistently. Ditto Treaty. So the FD average next year will come down to who goes up and who goes down (even if that is a fairly obvious point). With one of Galway or Waterford more than likely to go up - possibly both - and I would argue UCD favourites to go down - then there's a very good chance that the FD crowds in 2024 will be quite a bit down on where they end up this year. Perhaps the only thing that would stop that would be Cork getting relegated.
No, I was one of the four.Quote:

Kerry v Treaty recorded as 1,278, so a "slippage" of 16 from the first game!
Not so random after all!Quote:
