106 counted at the salthill -v- limerick match
It's curious it's more First Division clubs who give official attendances. Only official figures in the Premier are UCD, Fingal, Galway and Dundalk (and Dundalk not all the time). By contrast, only Longford, Mervue, Monaghan, Salthill and Wexford in the First don't give official figures, and Wexford did up until last year. So 40% of the Premier v 60% of the First give official figures. So it's not just a Rovers thing.

Ours against waterford was 182.
250 at most at Youths vs. Derry. Considering they're the biggest visitors of the seasons, that's really awful for us. I'd say around half were Derry fans, really brilliant supporters. The Conga almost made up for the scoreline! We really definitely have to move the games back to Friday nights..
740 in Terryland tonight.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.

Neale Fenn on retiring: 'I think once you finish you might as well finish rather than making all sorts of comebacks.'
Lads, I think a little unfair on Galway, attendances as a whole are awful for most clubs who have to play on Mon/Tues night. We had our lowest of the season last year v Bray on a tues night I think.
Stu - nice feature that putting the weekend crowds at the end of the stats, you going to do that each week ?
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
I will, yeah. Partly because Isbrandij uses the figures for his soccerway site and finds it a bit hard to wade through five pages a week to find the eleven figures he needs, and partly because it sums up the week and gives the potential to start off rows all over again (like the Monaghan attendance.)
rovers looked to have a massive away support in drogheda by the looks of it on MNS. looked brilliant. would there have been almost 1000 there? shed looked packed.
