    A drop of 4,000 is very significant and very unusual, but so was the capacity of 6,900 v Dundalk. That was never going to be sustained, and it was match no one locally was going to miss. To be fair Cork have another home game on Monday night.

    In saying that I'm sure they were very disappointed with just under 3k last night, still better than most other sides mind.

    Awful attendances up there this year, how can ye keep surviving with crowds like that. (That's not a dig it's incredible ye are still going with attendances that bad)

    Not saying there was way more, but there was definitely more. Our attendances are never accurate. Season tickets ate not counted. That is for sure. Most people dont get given tickets either so i don't know how they are coming up with these figures. Easily 300 there anyways.

    So that they wouldn't be counted, obviously. Did you even read what the guy said?

    www.dundalkfc.com has '1,000 (estimate)'

    Hard to make a call as it was my first visit to the newly developed ground, also not sure what the main stand holds but it was just over half full. Not sure also how many away fans, looked 400+

    Longford fans will know better, but I would find it hard to believe there was over 1k.

    It was announced as 1200 exactly. I don't know if that is official, but they'd hardly announce an estimate?

    I heard Roddy could still get it. Supposedly that Waterford radio station that announced Roddy has taken over down there has jumped the gun and that Roddy hasnt actually agreed on paper yet.
    Who knows though

    Because unseasoned don't taste as good.

    Season tickets with a big pinch of salt. Half-bake and finish in cooked books. Skim off the top layer in case it looks too rich, and add a good dollop of fudge instead. Serve with a modicum of smugness and wait for the bellyaching to begin.

    yeah I doubt anyone expects us to match that attendance this season unless were in the hunt at the business end of the season.. under 3k was disappointing but yeah still a healthy attendance compared to most.. think it will be lower again on Monday
