Either way, it was very disappointing, even allowing for it being live on telly.

PS Hi to Peadar, Eanna and Redgav. Told youse I had a good feeling beforehand. :D

1,492 officially (according to the report on the Pats website)

As should be expected from two clubs within such proximity for a derby, if there indeed was. A better indicator is how many would travel from Sligo to say, Waterford for an average First Division match..

I think you'll find that Ballybofey is further from Dublin than Sligo Red4eva!

Dun Laoghaire to Swords can sometimes take two and a half hours. From there, it's at least three hours to Ballybofey.
If it takes you 2 and a half hours to get from Sligo to Ballybofey, you must be driving a tractor.

Really? Was there a lot of room at the Bohs end? I would have guessed at around 1800 myself.

Not a chance you'd make Ballybofey in 2 1/2 hours. Besides, there's a train and decent bus service to Sligo which makes it much easier to get to.

Edit - 650 at Harps-Rovers.

Defitinly more than 600. Star had 1200 but I'd say it was somewhere in between both figures. I'd say around 900.

I did it in 2 hours 50 minutes from the Port Tunnel to Ballybofey on a Friday evening last season. The worst part of the journey is getting out of Dublin.

Shouldn't take 4 hours unless the traffic is absolutely jammers in Monaghan and Blaney.

That's the League Cup game? Not bad - Setanta Cup having a bit of an impression, it seems.

Dundalk v Finn Harps

Waiting on a few more estimates (harps fans who were at the game pls have a guess) I would go with 1,000 - 1,100. Def no more than that, but not a bad crowd for a wet evening i suppose, and not forgetting our dreadful start of the season with 4 defeats in a row.

Drogs v Longford was 1,611.

About 350 at Athlone vs Limerick with about 20 from Limerick. Limerick the best side I have seen this season especially when they kept the ball on the ground.

502 at UCD-Sligo.

Worst crowd I have ever seen in Longford, the main stand would have held the entire crowd and more. No idea what that holds, maybe 500 thats about all that was there. 1/3 Bohs, 2/3's Longford.

750 official attendance GUFC vs Kilkenny City.

About 120 at the Kildare V Monaghan game. Maybe 15 from Monaghan.

FAI say 3000 for Cork City v Waterford. I'd wait for better estimate before putting that in though.

Where were the Pat's fans at the Dublin City game in Dalyer? There looked like about 500 in the Jodi Stand on TV3, with no-one in the condemned end or in the Des Kelly. There may have been people in the Connacht Street stand, but I wouldn't have thought so. Hate taking attendances off the telly, but feel free to correct/agree.

Pat's fans were mostly concentrated in the corner of the Jodi nearest the Tramway End. 500 was about the size of it. Approximately 350 at DC-Shels tonight, for the notional record.

2050 at Derry v Bray

Crowd very badly affected by Hunger Strike Commemoration which was taking place in the same area at the same time.

I wasn't at our game against Athlone Town, but I was told it was a fairly decent crowd for us - 175-200.

Based on tv looked like very small Shels v Drogs crowd at approx 1500. There was only handful of people under the tv cameras.

I would say Shels V Drogs - 1500-1750 :o :confused:

Anyone agree/disagree :confused:
