    Fantastic atmosphere too.
    Absolutely no chance was there 6,000 there tonight. Nearer 4,000 if you ask me.

    How many seats are there in the randywell? The majority of them were full and there was a good crowd over on the far side of the ground too.

    But you would know your own ground better so im not going to argue.

    Think there are 2,500 seats. Heard estimates of 3,500 there last night which would be close enough

    Would guess 1000 at Morton last night. Perhaps a little less.

    Sounds about right. Around 15 from Athlone who managed to get through the traffic heading to Electric Picnic. It added an hour onto the journey and I know people that turned back when they reached Portlaoise.

    Sorry we couldn't offer you a more entertaining match. Our lads looked tired from their exploits earlier in the week. I was going to use the phrase 'cup hangover' but sure our lads are only children and don't take a jar (ha!).

    Some good slick passing from Athlone. We always feel that our league position doesn't reflect our abilities and I think the same can be said about Athlone on that performance

    I can imagine. It took us 5 hours 10 mins to get to Limerick thanks to the traffic yesterday, home in 3 hours 25! The official announced attendance for Limerick game lst night was 471. Thought it seemed a little high.

    Fingal called out 1261 at their game last night.
    I'd not have put it over 1000.

    Not sure how they come up with the figures ?

    Maybe they counted the tickets sold, whereas you were just guessing on the crowd you saw.

    You think ?

    Spoke with a few others too that would have put the crowd under 1000. Last time we were there the crowd figures didn't add up with the official number either in my opinion.
    They sell a family pass for a price that's less than two adults. I imagine when two adults buy one of those tickets it goes in as 4 people ?

    3,100 seats at the Brandywell.

    I would say about 3,700 there last night. Has to be the worst ever Harps attendance there in years, Understandable though I supose.
    So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html

    Where are you getting your crowd figures from?

    Did you go around and take a picture of every single person there? Or did you just stand up on your seat and have a quick glance, then pick a number based on what you think that many people would look like?

    Any thoughts on the crowd at Tolka last night? Would have guessed around 1200 with around 100 Cork.

    Should have been a big game for Rovers? What happened to their Support?

    Certainly not 6000 at Brandywell last night, I'd have put it at 4000.

    Of course I didn't take pictures!

    I've been at a load of games in my time and know what a crowd of 1261 looks like. I didn't think there were that many there last night but could be wrong. If I am wrong then so are the others who I've talked to.

    But no big deal, it doesn't really matter I suppose.

    No offence. but i think ill stick with the official attendance announced. Sporting have been honest with their attendances all season. When we got some really low attendances they where given. There was no attempt to announce the attendances higher than they where.
