Quote4,500 for Bohs-Rovers is surley too high. There were about 2,250 in the Jodi (it holds 2,750 and was quite empty on the left) and I doubt Rovers brought that same amount.
Bray and Galway was 1000 according to extratime

We brought at least 2000 I would have guessed...Originally Posted by fionnsci
4500 sounds about right.
I hope he does. Because I said the Waterford attendance was 800-1000. You took the 1000 figure. So that shows me already you haven't any intention of trying to keep somewhat "accurate" figures.i like it
He doesnt seem to be doing it,if it bothers him that im doing it then he can tell me to step aside and i will
It holds 800
No. They use clickers to count the crowd
Rubbish. There were random people selling tickets at both Fingal games last year. On their own as well, so unless they can dish out tickets, change and click all in the one move that's not true.
That was my estimate for that game alright.
definitly more than 1000 at the game.... The extratime reporter is based in the press box on the dart side of the ground, how can he tell how many people are in the dart side stand?
I'd would have said 800 in the rehab bingo stand (tent) plus 350 - 400 around the ground, total of 1150-1200. To be honest was a decent crowd, i was only expecting maybe around 700 in total!!!
For our game there, they had someone tear a bit off the tickets as you go in so it should be easy to count them. I'm not sure what the procedure was for counting the number of season tickets holders who were at the game.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Eh, No its not rubbish, its a fact.
So random people(plural) but they where on their own(singular) OK
I suppose its impossible for a steward to do it as people come in, There has never been just one person at the entrances. Lets not start making up stuff now just so you can have a dig.
Its different set up for when shelcrashandburn come to morton anyway. The away fans go into the stand on the far side. The away fans for other teams get a section in the seated stand. But if you want to believe we are just making up the numbers out of thin air by all means do. What ever keeps you happy.

His post was at 3:58, but he edited it with the updated figure 45 minutes earlier, so he must have gotten the figure in that time. But he clarified it later. Just thought it was funny is all!I'd say he got it a lot earlier, only got home to post it at that stage
We played on Thursdays in 2001/02. Didn't do much really. Though arguably the half season we tried it wasn't long enough to notice any changes.
The first few games of last season were almost all the biggest crowds we'd gotten for the respective games in the previous few seasons. Last season wasn't exactly conducive to building crowds!
I'm not on the internet most weekends, and also I wait for all the figures to come in before updating. It doesn't bother me particularly, but it is silly duplicating the work (and leaving out the averages, which is the most important thing), so there's no point you adding more stuff to the thread.
Week 3 update. Usual notes apply.

Are you actually encouraging a club to play on a Thursday night?
Don't be such an arse. Random people selling tickets seperate of each other. Next time I'm up there I'll ask to see the clicker so.
So random people(plural) but they where on their own(singular) OK
Interesting. I was there for most of the period that could be described as "a few years ago" but never heard of this. Would you be willing to give any more detail?
You can't spell failure without FAI
There could be an actual benefit for a club like UCD to do itAre you actually encouraging a club to play on a Thursday night?
Dundalk had no reason bar hoping that some of the opposition's part time players couldn't get off work for the match
Should be noted as well that the FAI are dead against Thursday nights, but are willing to give us a special exemption.
You've caught us out.
Hard to catch the blatantly obvious out in fairness
Well ye went with extratime's att. for Galway and Dundalk of 1426, when it looked like there was more, so why not now?
