2009 attendances

**Green&whitearmy** · 07/03/2009, 8:21 AM

ye very good rovers crowd at the game, they nearly filled the red seats, i'd say about 1600 rovers, i was told the tent was pretty full, 1000, and with another 200 squeezed behind the goal, so i'd say 2800 aswell.

Seems about right - knock one of the 0s off for their next home attendance given their performance!

Kenna must stay!

200 min, maybe 250. The stand's bigger than you think.

Can't believe a Limerick fan thought they had half the crowd.

I thought it was a decent enough crowd in Inchicore. They would have gotten less last season in a game against us and are clearly much worse now. Very encouraging Galway crowd as well.

Approx. 4,200 at Dundalk vs. Bohemians. 3,600 paid in on the night with about another 600 season ticket holders.

Were most matches all ticket? Youths-Shels was, had to buy a ticketmaster ticket from the ticket office before going to the turn styles. If everyone is doing this official figures should be available for all games.

I'd say that sounds about right. Dundalk's support was fairly impressive.

I'm pretty sure ALL matches are supposed to be all ticket. I know I was at Shels vs. Fingal last year when the lights went out. As they hadn't given out ticket stubs they had to pay out €15 to everyone who wanted a refund as they had no way of proving if they'd only paid €5 or €10 in. They've learnt their lesson I see.

Around 3,000 at Derry V Drogs last night!

On that subject, €15 for adult and €10 for student is a shocking price for a 1st Division match. Anyway, I'd say at least 75 Youths supporters there

3,100 and that is actually official.

I'm not sure if we will get official figures for the whole season but that figure is from the Derry city directors.

A very good away support as well from the Drogs....maybe 150.

Official attendance from Tolka was indeed 1,077.

I don't think you need to look too far into the sands of times past to know why Shels continue to charge PD prices in the FD. Rovers did exactly the same when they went down. Has to be done.
