Can only speak to Friday which was 3/4 seated with young Ultra types standing in one section. Looks weird seeing people sitting in a safe standing area, makes it look empty.

Issues with seat installation means can't be officially used for standing this season. All seats need removed and reattached before H&S will approve safe standing. They installed the seats by bolting onto the horizontal part of concrete meaning a trip hazard when the seats are raised. They need attached to the vertical concrete to resolve. Therefore Brandywell capacity about 5,200 this season growing to 6,300 next season.Originally Posted by WeAreRovers
Seems like the installation was behind schedule, how did this seat arrangement pass H & S!
Did the installers get it wrong, or the designers of the seats? Either way - it sounds like someone has screwed up badly there.
Yeah thats a pretty basic error, the rise is where fittings are attached unless they are recessed or bored at each end, as a general thing!? Like having to step over every door frame basic. If it was an installation error rather than an architect blunder i'd be looking at loss of income on reduced capacity.
passed as a seating stand - rejected as a standing stand (for the moment)
Can't see that going very far considering the biggest crowd they’ve had this season is still 1,000 off the reduced capacity

Projections for a jump in attendances when safe standing was due to open could be argued, novelty factor or something. It could be done. May not be worth it but the installation company deserve it unless it was an architect error on the plans and that should have been spotted. Again, in the grand scheme of things its not major but it is such silly stuff like this that delays all sorts of projects and costs money often to the taxpayer. Extension to the community school in Balbriggan yeas back was delayed for months cause the standard size door frames were the wrong size. Then the doors themselves were not fire doors so all had to be replaced, days before opening - just daft stuff and the bigger the project the bigger the problem caused like with NCH.
6207 was the number that I think Con Murphy announced for the Shams Galway match last night.
Friday's attendances as per yesterday's paper.
Bohs v Derry 4111,
Cork v Shels 2821
Shamrock Rovers v Galway 6204
Sligo Rovers v St Pats 2356
Waterford v Drogheda 2241.
First division attendances weren't listed.
Cork's on-field problems seem to be hitting their crowds hard now.
The colapse in Bohs attendances continues, 10% of their first home game now showing up
They are DOOMED im telling you DOOMED
Bray V FH 1067
cOBH v Treaty 807

Wheres our Nigel with his midseason update?
Ibiza with all the Harps players
Are the Harps players old enough to be going to Ibiza?
You'd have to hope that their feet are better on the dancefloor than they are on the pitch anyway
Hotel has a great Kids Club.
I'll get there eventually.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
Bray seem to be averaging a steady 1,000+, I suppose the current form and recent results plus the bar facilities now available inside the ground has helped!
Is there many Cabinteely fans following the club now or has that connections been erased?
