About 25 cork fans in FP
7 UCD fans in Limerick
40 or so Derry fans in Waterford.
Bohs looked to have 400 in the away terrace and a good few in the stand, I'd be thinking 450-500, def had more than Pats visit earlier in April.
Attendance given was 2,700, so add on the usual scanning 'challenges' loads again last night telling me their tickets didn't scan, so call the actual crowd maybe 2,850, thats about 2,400 home fans, suppose not bad for bottom of league and no wins (at the time).
Sounded like a decent Galway crowd in Tallaght
We don't get seats in our allocation, the 1100 are behind the goal. Rovers crowd for both games in tolka look fairly similar from the highlights.Quote:

Outside of the bigger games I think 300 away fans is a great number for Galway ,they don’t historically have a large away following afaik….Quote:

That, and whilst it's a modern ground and all, do people actually like it, or do they prefer the older grounds, run down as they are?Quote:

It is everyone I know's least favourite ground in Dublin but many of the reasons that we dislike it will be viewed as poistives for others, particularly those driving kids to and from the games.Quote:

Poor crowd from sligo on Friday.
They're levelling the area behind the goal in the next few weeks. Would love if club considered giving that area to away supporters from clubs that don't bring many like sligo and derry as it'd free up a few hundred more for home supporters in away shed
I must have phased it wrong,but my point was around the fact that it's a few years since Galway were playing in the Premier division so thought there may be a bigger crowd than 300, but if 300 is the normal limit of their awayday support then fair play.
Glad to hear it's the least favourite venue for a lot of clubs,after all they normally see their team beaten there:)
Pardon the pun but there was in me hoopQuote:

Premier Division Series 12
Shelbourne v St Pats 1,100
Drogheda v Sligo 50+
Dundalk v Bohemians 4/500
Waterford v Derry 40+
Shamrock Rovers v Galway 300+
First Division Series 12
Finn Harps v Cork 25+
Athlone v Cobh 10+
Bray v Kerry 20/30+
Treaty v UCD 7
Longford v Wexford 40/50+
Anyone with further info or were at a game might care to add. :)
Galway had 170 in tallaght, read the post right above your one !
This thread is infuriating!
I remember the good old days of the 90's even when fans were mixed, the current home terrace was just home fans left and right and away fans in the middle. An ex work mate of mine, big Drogs fans used to love going to watch games from the current away shed.Quote:

You keep asking for further info but you do nothing with it. At least in the real attendance thread the data is used; for averages by club and division, and total attendances for seasons. This is just nonsense
I'd prefer to leave that to someone else, I just thought it would be a good idea to begin a thread like this. To be fair it seems to have attracted a decent following by the number of weekly posts. Maybe you would be interested in adding the away averages by club and division, and total away attendances for seasons, seeing as you seem to be following this thread with interest. Unless you have another idea for a thread that would be of more interest to us! :confused:Quote:

Without any semi-accurate data, it would be difficult. But it would be interesting to see accurate data for away fans released, and collated in a similar threaed.Quote:

As I have told you before my take on this information has been based on reading emails and posts here, on extratime.ie, local sports reports, watching LOI TV, attending games myself and checking various league clubs social media outputs, which all helps to create a semi-accurate number of the away support.Quote:

So, keep following the thread if you want you do have the choice! :)
I'd say 10-10,000,000 Derry fans in Galway tonight. [insert douchebag emoji]
Jese, it's nice having an idea of away fans at matches. This thread does that. It doesn't need to be anything elseQuote:

Definitely 6 that I know of made the trip to Finn Park. Could have been more.
One group of lads standing together were all I saw from the gantry anyway so that would make sense. Made plenty of noise though to be fair to them. They also seemed to enjoy the quality refereeing performance.Quote:

I'd say around 20 Waterford fans in Sligo going by a clip I saw on social media from end of game but anyone there will know better. Tallaght on Monday will be easier to get to.
Shels def had 400+ in Oriel Park on Friday, def their biggest away crowd in recent times travelling up and great to see.
**Edit, revised on looking at highlights, i would go 350, still decent.
10 Athlone fans at the Markets Field
3-5 Kerry fans in Bishopsgate tonightQuote:
