1212 at gust v port vale ( we found the sd counters after all)
There was a bigger turnout than I was expecting TBH, I think the official attendance was given as 405, not bad considering it was the Galway Oscar Traynor team and Port vale aren't exactly a crowd puller. When we were in the Premier we would usually get about 150 at our home friendlies to put it in perspective.
The next big event is the Chick Deacy friendly, I can see that being very well attended by lots of people from across Galway and beyond.
Great to be back in Terryland

roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
Was at the port vale friendly, no more than 70 or 80 there and at least half were port vale fans. Went round and counted myself! #someonehadtosayit
405 for the Galway District league junior team wasnt bad at all. Considering Salthill add on their 65 season ticket sales to all home games it approximates to about 8 times the actual attendance against longford the night before in an airtricity league game.
Port Vale won 3-0, roll on the Eamonn Deacy game Galway Utd /West Utd V Aston Villa now for the second installment of the trilogy comeback of Galway United on the 18th of August

GUST inflating attendances?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
*hijacks threads*
The Galway District league authorised the event, audited the gate, were the organisers are a busy organisation running leagues, have never been excluded from football by low lifes, why would they do that. Good man regi up Salthill id say your nights are mixed up a little, keep blaming the arts festival when ya can only rustle up 26 of your 600 members to find their way to Terryland
