1'048 at Thomond tonight. A little bit on Rovers, not much, a few more attracted due to the win streak I guess.

That and the fact there was no clash with junior trainings on Tuesdays and Thursdays. A good few junior lads there that I haven't seen at a few games due to clashes.

I'd say we'll be lucky to hit the thousand again for the last home game of the season.

In November 2011, it was reported that Athlone Town had received a donation of €500,000 to wipe out debts incurred through the construction of the stadium.^[1]

Christ man, I could go onto Wiki and change it so that it says Finn Park is an 80,000 all seater with under soil heating and 500 bars..

But you'd need to reference it for it to be valid. Which hasn't been done up the wiki for Athlone Stadium. The figures don't seem that far out though really.

They're plenty out. The capacity of the stand is just over 2,000. Something random like 2,024 as BR has said.

What were the crowds last night at Sligo v Cork and Rovers v Bray?

Away section in the Showgrounds last night.

between 900/1000 at rovers v bray

Technically there were 6 in away attendance if you include CEO,Chairman and a few more but i think Conor in the picture may have been the only paying away fan.

Wasn't announced so we were definitely on the fiddle.

I heard that someone on ocean FM estimated the crowd at Sligo vs Cork City at about 1500.

1,500 is not too bad for a Monday evening.

That sounds about right - slightly less then we were getting this time last season alas

502 at Waterford United v Salthill.

Dare I ask how Mervue got on in what might have been their biggest game of the season? (Before next week)

I'm sure there'll be a Galway United fan only too willing to supply the number

I only walked past, but at a glance I would have said 150ish

One of the lads at it counted 60 but a second counted 76 with no away support .

Dire. Such a shame.

Disapointing crowd but it was a Monday night and 3 home games in a week probably had a somthing to do with it.

1,248 at Belfield on Friday. Probably about 1,100 of them were Pats fans and that's being very generous to UCD.
