Yes I was saying to a Limerick fan that there were 550 approx in the stand and more around the ground that brought the figure to 832 official figure.

But I thought you were referring to Ronnie who was talking about Longford figures as if you read further back I said that there was only about 30-40 from Limerick.

So what your saying is that ye actually got that much at a Monaghan home game that didnt involve a Premier Division side!:eek:

There's two conversations going on that got crossed.

Magicme was putting Sadloserkid right on the Monaghan-Limerick attendance of 832, saying there was around 550 in the stand alone.

Partizan was saying there was 200 at Longford-Waterford, Keen2win said more like 300-400 (not a hope in hell by the way, Partizan is spot on), then Ronnie misread Magicme's post and said "From starting with 200 to now 550, looks like the best crowd of the season so far and growing!"

All the subsequent confusion stemmed from that.
Bar your little snipe at the end B&W, despite your 'shock' they obviously did get that amount there.

Yup. Hopefully it is the turning of the tide and not a once off. We are hoping that those who were there enjoyed the game and the fact that we won and will make it a regular thing, even if half of them do it will be a big improvement!

The first return game of the season. I know this game was midweek, but the previous meeting got 3410.

Yep, lots to consider. Was just throwing the figure out for general interest as it was the first one.

1200 oh that should fund there new stadium. are they still working on it or whats the story with it ?
08/07/2009, 3:24 PM
Mr A

Various papers reported all sorts of figures but it was around 1500.

As for the new stadium we're waiting for grant money to be released to the contractor. Once that happens progress should be relatively rapid. How the stadium is related to last night's game is beyond me though.

See what happens to the kids of Monaghan when they are influenced by your Dublin players! :(

No wonder they can only afford cheap tracksuits when they have their own brass bands.

No self respecting Monaghan youngster would be seen dead without their own personal musical retinue.
