Probably down to the Ireland game. I know it was over an hour and a half before any games K/O but people will use any excuse.

Probably down to the Ireland game. I know it was over an hour and a half before any games K/O but people will use any excuse.
Rovers have sold-out their allocation of 1700 tickets for this Fridays game v the Pats. With more Rovers fans expected to sneak into the home sections and then Pats and neutrals, Id say we might see 4000+ in Inchicore this Friday.
Leinster were playing on Friday night as well. An away game, so maybe an excuse to stay in the pub after the Ireland-Armenia game.
Around 2,000 at the Rovers V Fingal game. Good Fingal contingent down.
Cork City v Mervue - 1,541

1,700 reported in programme tonight for league game against UCD in the Showgrounds and the exact figure same against Shams in the league cup semi. Probably around the same for against Fingal tonight.
Anyone know how many were at the boez v ucd game last night, friend of mine who was at it reckons about 1200, no real estimates over on the boez forum.
Edit; Just seen the indo has the attandance at 890 but on they're forum they estimate 1200-1500
3,800 at Inchicore last night for St.Patricks Athletic v Shamrock Rovers according to the Irish Times.
The lads in salthill count 81 at Salthill v Waterford United
Around 2100 in Oriel last night.
It's a shame to see the stats on attendances at Scottish Division 2 and 3 levels. The league should be open to more flexibility to match-day kick-offs. I'd like to see a return to Saturday - Sunday fixtures. I remember Radio One giving coverage to games on Sundays.
Per today's Irish Times -
UCD v Pat's 756
Fingal v Bray 389
Galway v Sligo 668
Bohs v Drogheda 1100
Dundalk v Rovers 2100
I'm assuming the first three are official.
Galway and Sligo being a derby should be attracting bigger crowds than that. Most clubs have an awful lot of work to do.
While it wasn't a great crowd, it was a horrendous night weather wise which has to have impacted on the crowd.
