Did you mistype the Bohs one? Bohs are bringing 350 to Derry on monday. I'd say there was at least 400 there tbh. Open to correction. We sold out whatever the initial allocation was and then a few more were released. Not entirely sure if this second tranche was sold out but it was close.Quote:

I presume you just make these up rather than actually read the thread where people give figures or estimations?Quote:

So, I disagree with your post and think the figures are reasonably close. By the by I usually attend home games at both Cork City & Cobh Ramblers whenever possible, so I think I have a reasonable connection to the league here! :)Quote:

About 50 Drogheda fans at the Brandywell tonight.
Around 200-250 Cork fans in Inchicore
Great crowd of Waterford fans in Cobh, around 350. Fair play to them.
About 70 gufc fans I ferrycarrig . Some journey cross country ????
As said in the other thread, around about 35-40 Harps fans I'd have said in Mounthawk Park. Seemed to be dotted around the place.
About 15 Longford fans in Limerick.
Sligo prob had 100-150 in Oriel Park last night, hard to estimate but probably not 150.
Much reduced home support also.

Do Dublin clubs get much "tourist fans" to their games I wonder. You would notice some at Galway games, but would Dublin with the huge number of flights into the city, could there be a potential target market there?
Pretty much every home game in Inchicore you tend to see a few groups of tourists from the likes of Germany/Holland/England/Scotland, usually a group of lads over for a stag do or just a weekend on the pints in general and the Germans/Dutch are always shocked to find out that you can’t get served a pint to bring with you onto the terraces, but that’s a whole other debate for another day/thread :)Quote:

The Maine Stand has an approximate capacity of close to 2,000 with the usual away allocation of 200, so lets estimate the Sligo fans were numbered between 150+ ?Quote:

A good question that, I know the away end of the RSC has been reduced considerably, makes sense since Cork aren't going to fill it this year, I'd say roughly 200 is the current allocation.
Pats is around 1150 with the shed end behind the goal and section A of the main stand. Tallaght was around the same for us and Shels was around 800 last year.Quote:

Bohs have exactly 450 I believe with an official capacity of close to 4,500Quote:
