I think 875 was our crowd last night.

Bray Longford was up on recent weeks. I'd say just around the 1000 mark.

1900 last night i'd say

Rovers V Pats 2800 Official figure

Thought it was a bit more myself, but that's the official figure.

Will get gael to clarify later

612 I think was the figure announced

Shels v Dundalk was 1186. Courtesy of Fintan Cassidy

I would say about 600 at Cobh V Harps.

Athlone vs Wexford no official figure yet but would estimate about 370

max, terrible crowd for such a important game.

In fairness the weather was awful all day long and with not much cover there unless you want to go behind the goal the crowd was always going to be hit.

Was shocked at how far from completion the new stand was.

Highly impressed with the bar though, it proved difficult to get out of :)

I'd go for 2,800 at the Brandywell v Galway. Very good crowd for a Sunday evening

They won't be back unless we start seeing some goals though.

Agreed, I was going to say 170 though. Great away support for a Tuesday evening. Probably about 120/130 Reds there.

Terrible crowd in kildare last night for the kidare rams match, would love to know official attendance.

184 what did you expect for a mid week game? a lot of dublin commuters wouldn't have bothered going.

jesus that was quick. thought there was less being honest but ok.
