What's capacity now?
Main stand: 3048
New Stand: c2700
5,748
"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,"
Bit harsh to be turning people away with 300 empty seats?
Although I assume they were season ticket holders who didn't turn up rather than Rovers trying to start a "You only really want what you can't have" marketing campaign?
The two ends of the new stand are not open yet because it's still officially a building site and not passed by health and safety yet but they were forced to open one end last night due to serious overcrowding. Doubt the health and safety officer in SDCC was impressed
623 for our game against UCD
More or less the same as the first home game?
I have my doubts over that. Was thinking 400 or so myself. A lot more space at the end than the previous time.
I was listening to the commentry provided by DUISC last night (which was very good btw) they said the crowd was between 700 - 800
A Rovers fan said there was around 150 at the game last night aswell.
But I couldnt make it so cant confirm that.
i would say about 800 in Ferrycarrig Park last night with a very good crowd from Waterford
And Miles To Go Before We Sleep
Wasn't 150 Rovers fans last night. Closer to 75 IMO. I'd say under 1000 there last night.
Was no way 150. Nearer to what ARooney said, about 75.
You've got no fans.
How many of these actually paid in?
How many were guests or on freebies?
How many did UCD bring?
How many bodies are calculated for every family ticket sold?
Any time I've gone there, I buy a family ticket for just myself and the missus - the ticket collector never notes how many go in on each ticket.
A transient, horrible, fantastic dream,
Wherein is nothing yet all things do seem:
From which we're wakened by a friendly nudge
Of our bedfellow Death, and cry: "O fudge!"

At FP they use clickers to mark the amount of people going through each gate.
You get a discount of €4 and you still give out
Why do you never ask anyone from other clubs them questions?
Why be so concerned?
I would say there was about 10 or so from ucd going by cheers when they were attacking.
Because the other clubs are real clubs.
Your franchise has no history, roots or genesis in football.
Your attendances - just like your 'club' - are manufactured.

Poor attempt at WUMING and boring with it.
Had a good look around the stand. 3/4 full. Stand holds 800.
If I had a penny.

Hey folks, lay off fingal. Why is everyone so bloody jealous of them? They are a new club and sure you have to start somewhere and build which they seem to be doing pretty well. Just because they have a few good sponsors to get them off the ground... i for one hope they win the league and move into the premier. Every club bar one in the premier is in the ****, we need fingal to progress rather than falll away as i believe they are building a good model for other clubs.
Why are people who "need no introduction" always introduced?
