City don’t seem to have got any of the post Covid bounce over the last few years that is seeing everywhere else. Really disappointing attendance relative to what the likes of Sligo, Galway etc. can get in much smaller population centers. It can’t just all be down to ticket prices.
Thanks for the extra money.Quote:

If it’s money you’re interested in you should have a word with someone on your board to consider sending over the extra 1500 unused tickets to Pats next time as they’ll sell them out no problem. €30k down the drainQuote:

There will be an * on that bohs average. :)Quote:

Derry City hoping to open a new 3,000 seated stand, to help boost their home attendances, but their form is so poor fans are already staying away!
On the other hand Drogheda have started a great run and could have another 1,000+ at home games, but are restricted by the safe capacity set for Weavers Park!

1650 Bray

1650 at the Carlisle Grounds is excellent for Bray's inaugural fixture, but 486 seems disappointing at Athlone?
2828 in Galway.
1436 in Limerick
If there was 1000 people in Ballyboefy I'm no judge of crowdsQuote:

I had it around 800 from the gantry, but crowd seemed a lot more spread out than usual tonight.Quote:

I remember in 1996 a Pats Bohs game there as being given a 6.000 attendance but thinking now I can't see where that could come from given the stand was less than half the size..no stand behind the goal and loads of unused areas
1076 at Waterford’s first ever women’s home game ,great crowd…..
I hate to say it but it didn’t look remotely like 806 based on the main stand and the 2 behind the goals.Quote:

There were Longford crowds provided last year that did not match the attendance. There was one where I had photos of all parts of the ground while the game was in play at various points throughout, counted several times and the gap between the attendance and attendance provided was very significant. I doubt they numbers they provide are 'bodies in the ground', perhaps they have a different calculation of tickets distributed.Quote:

It will slip under the 2k mark, in the 1.8k next game. Cobh will be the next 'bumper' gate of 2300 imo and the the slow fall off until the run in. Maybe there well be a less fickle tendency this season bt I think patterns will be similar.Quote:

Weather really affected the crowd, thought they would at least break the 1,000 mark given the good start, a status yellow rainfall warning earlier in the day might have had an impact? Thankfully the rain stopped about an hour before k.o but came back at the start of the second half.Quote:

That is by no means a swipe at any club, full credit to the 30 or so Longford fans, the 100 or so Treaty and whatever Athlone took on day 1, any away fan travelling has to be good, especially to that away end **
**Note to other FD clubs and especially this season, pay the extra 5 euro, head to the stand, 3 or 4 rows at front reserved for away, very good view of the pith, access to upstairs bar, better coffee / tea / snacks, nice crew in that bar too, away fans always well received, god forbid 3 toilet options too.
Terrible really what Dundalk have to offer away fans. Then again Pats and Shels both offer uncovered away ends too.

Dundalk v Wexford - 1,926...................
That's every game in a row now the attendance has dropped for Dundalk, the almost zero away fans are starting to bite, overall crowd was around 100 down on the Longford game, last game at home. Maybe a few hundred headed to the races that were on at Dundalk stadium same night, it looked busy I drove past on the way to the ground.
Would imagine next home game v Cobh should be close on 2,500, but would think crowds will probably hoover around 2k mark all season, then again some of the Mon night league games under SK got just under 2k the very odd occasions.
Ryan Moore was in town tonight so I'd imagine there would have been a slightly larger crowd than usual at the races alright.Quote:

Being unlikely that there'll be PL trophy possibility this decade it really is time for the club to look hard at the issue. Catch 22 with Oriel is that it is sufficient for current crowds in most basic ways, when they are dividing up funding.
