Not bad for a Sunday afternoon considering we were competing with two other attractions namely Westmeath vs Galway and Roscommon vs Longford
Where did you get the official Shels crowd ?Quote:

The official figures must include everyone at the game otherwise they are worthless.
I think youll find True Blue is a wum from sligo who is barred of the gufc forum .Now go back and play with your rattle.Quote:

As posted by ShelsW, club official, on your forum - "1,896 in total". Don't see how that can't be considered unofficial. The thread on the Shels forum indicates that any freebies would have been largely immaterial.Quote:

Our first game back is supposed to be the League Cup game with Limerick 37.Quote:

And you can be certain that the number of people getting in for free is NOT immaterial. My own guess whould be that you're adding on at least another three figures.
If you want to use ShelsW because you think I'm lying for some reason!! then look in the thread were you pulled out the 1,572, he also says when asked the question, Does that include season tickets holders?
"Yes - but not the centre door - which took in about another 125."
You need to clarify with ShelsW what he's putting on the board as the first week seems to be paid in people and the second week seems to be the total.

I'm just glad to see that Shels fans are FINALLY taking a stand on the really important issues!Quote:

I'm not going to argue against official club figures in the absence of anything else other than ranty speculation.
Update after week 3.
I've put in 117 for Cobh v Harps for now, being the lower figure I was given. I know that CBG certainly has access to official figures in the past, so if we can confirm that the 252 is official, I'll replace it.
I've revised Bray v Bohs from week 2 to 1800 in line with the continuity attendances thread. The 2500 which we had was from the papers, which I'm quite happy to ignore.
PREMIER DIVISION
Bohs - 3,078 (2006 - 1,463; 2005 - 1,976; 2004 - 2,340)
Bray - 1,800 (1,027; 1,550; 818 FD)
Cork - 3,000 (2,941; 3,644; 4,033)
Derry - 4,000 (3,229; 2,698; 1,672)
Drogheda - 1,700 (1,751; 1,682; 1,554)
Galway - 2,580 (1,148 FD; 566 FD; 571 FD)
Longford - 900 (681; 1,004; 1,131)
Pat's - 1,855 (1,342; 1,599; 1,882)
Rovers - 2,000 (1,089 FD; 1,539; 1,349)
Sligo - 1,500 (1,806; 1,794 FD; 781 FD)
UCD - 1,195 (546; 653; 306 FD)
Waterford - 2,050 (915; 1,513; 1,753)
FIRST DIVISION
Athlone - 1,750 (421; 316; 291)
Cobh - 246 (368; 403; 240)
Dundalk - 2,500 (1,078; 474; 591)
Harps - 1,100 (428; 1,347 PD; 1,106)
Kildare - 250 (265; 186; 298)
Kilkenny - 150 (122; 185; 110)
Limerick - 934 (364; 669; 188)
Monaghan - 309 (204; 183; 182) (missing Kilkenny)
Shels - 1,734 (1,690 PD; 1,949 PD; 2,158 PD)
Wexford - 2,130 (n/a)
Premeir Division average - 2,030 (1,535; 1,759; 1,853)
First Division average - 1,126 (570; 520; 512)
Overall average - 1,622 (1,070; 1,195; 1,218)
FD is an average crowd in the First Division; PD is an average crowd in the Premier Division. I've only put that in where the attendances was when the club was in a different one to their current division.
Missing games -
Monaghan v Kilkenny
The FAI told us they'd give us 4 quatros for every person we can get in the gate. These are the important issues. So my guess at the attendance would be c. 10,000. You could barely get your pint glass throwing arm from out beside your leg it was that packed. Though other estimates had under 2000 and Dave Crawley's massive cranium filling up the rest of the spaceQuote:

there was no official figure given. ShelsW posted 1572 as paid in and 125 as freebies in the same thread. LeixlipRed went ahead and posted 1500 and now suddenly the 125 free are ignored. Is there anything you won't to to have a go at Shels :) remarkable stuff...
all I was attempting to do was clear it up
whiney rant or not, I'll leave you to it as I see you've ignored that facts again with your latest posting.
You just posted a figure; you gave no back up or anything. I'm always going to take a figure from a club official over random guesstimates (or at least, what appear to be guesstimates) posted like that.

Although I think that was a case of someone posting the official attendance and other people saying there were way more than that, whereas here it's the person who posted the attendance amending his own figure, in which case I'll change it.Quote:

Anyway how do you get to be a club official like ShelsW ?
He'll love that.... :D
I've missed these rows between Pineapple and Higgins.
Perhaps one of yee should open a thread about how the other's club doesn't deserve a place in the league?
I didn't.. :pQuote:

I wandered into the new stand (a lot less security than City matches), where I could see all three occupied sides of the ground and counted 230ish. So I'd imagine that CBG wouldn't be far off the official figure.Quote:

Reading 4 or 5 posts on the dundalk forum, 2,200 for the athlone game seems to be a figure most are happy with.
Where do you think the balls teams warming up with came from :DQuote:

About 100 bray fans in stand and few more on camac side
So all in 2200

I'd say about 1300 at the RSC last night for Waterford United v Bohs.
About 200 in Kilkenny, if even!
awful crowd
About 3,000 at the Cross I'd say.
1,400 guestimate at rovers v galway...
