Bray - Pat's maybe 600.
Bray's average seems ridiculously high btw, no way could they have averaged 1200. Figures for de Boez seems a bit high too.

sligo - bray2 - circa 1800
Take out Bohs and Rovers games for Bray, and they drop to 850, which seems reasonable.
Bohs figures aren't official this year, and guesstimates tend to be higher than actuals. Sligo's average here is 1756; I think Fran Gavin gave an official average of 1400 on MNS when explaining their ticket allocation for the Cup Final.
Cheers for the figures so far; I've updated the post again.
I was told that the attendances for the 2 matches missing from the mervue home games were:
against fingal - between 80-90
against waterford - between 110-120
Cheers. Just Bohs, Rovers and Kildare to come, and that'd be everything!
Official (or mostly official) figures in bold. "2" in the missing games bit refers to the second game against that team.
If Rovers' crowds were the same as last year, we'd be looking at a league average of 1083, a drop of over 10%. As it is, we're still down a bit.

the first division CPO's need to get their acts together dragging the averages down like that :mad:
:p
Crowd announced at Sporting Bray as 740.
Wait until the candy stripes get going in the first division next year we will bring the averages for that division through the roof compared to the season just past.
Derry fans just can't stop being arrogant even when they're relegated and 5 minutes from going out of existance.
