Well that attendance announced is the official attendance. So you're miles off.
Even the first game of the season was well down on last year's though. 4700 down to around 3500. (Incidently, last years was against Bray, I agree, not exactly a glamour tie).
"If you don't work harder I'll pull you off at halftime,"
“Crikey, at Manchester City all we get is an orange and a cup of tea,"
Seems to be a pattern.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
the official attendance for Wexford v Longford was 462. Stand was no where near full and very few standing around the pitch not a bad attendance considering bottom of the league so hopefully get a result in Athlone and have a good crowd for Limerick game
And Miles To Go Before We Sleep
belive it! lads ive often given figures which are from my own experiance of walking around grounds with a clicker doing counts. last year in a certain ground i thought the attn was small so i went and counted. The count proved that the attn was around 215 yet in the media in the coming days it was said to be over 400 more then that. heres a pic i got from the second half of the populated side at the ucd game a few weeks ago. i said at the time that the crowd was small and about 100 give or take a few. now i got panned by the UCD lads for it but i was only going on what i saw.
Ahahaha seriously?
Lets redefine what it means to heal
There's absolutely no way there were only 700 fans in Tolka last night. Look back through the old threads and you'll see that my guesstimates before the official figures were released (it use not to be announced at half time) were always fairly accurate. I would have said 900-1000 for last night.
The lengths people will go to to avoid watching LoI football, eh?
A patriot is someone who knows how to hate his country properly.
From what i have seen on this thread from last year and this, Its only the home fans (as long as they are being honest) Who can predict the attendances accurately enough to be believed. They know their ground and what it looks like at various attendances.
Very true. A limerick fan (no offence) has no idea how to judge attendances in Tolka, just as much as if I guessed an attendance in Limerick it would be a very rough guesstimate.
150 at best at monaghan game last night..
terrible game, worse result
Congrats on missing out half the stand.
Yeah, that's about right. Some online report says 600 or so; can't remember which one.
Well there's hardly going to be much more in those 2 little sections now...
Gael, a quick count of the picture will give you around 150. Add in people in the two other sections and outside of the stand and you're looking at a crowd almost 200. Yes, a very low crowd, but nearly 100% larger than your estimate.
There's always a good few people to the left of the stand.
Finn Harps v UCD Official Attendance - 593.
