1078 Waterford v Cork
I’m not pedantic...I’m merely overly concerned with minute details.
Just under 3500 at tallaght
Ahhh
To witness an epic second half
Ye the last 20 minutes was brilliant end to end stuffYous played us off the park at times in the game but it was a good game all round. . Mannus' double save was amazing
Ahhh
No, certainly didn't but then I thought the overall crowd was far bgger than the official line

Not a chance in hell. The old stand holds 1250 and that had atleast 1100 if not more in it add to that 300 FORAS heads and 70ish more blues in the new stand. I'd say there was 1400+ at the game.
Why do you think a waterford fan would deliberately give a lower (random) figure?

It's not a random figure, it was the number passed up to the press box, but it was qualified as a 'paid in' figure as it was passed on, which I thought strange at the time.
Up to now this year we've been using the total figures (used to be just paid-ins), but Frosty is right, there was more there last night. I'd have said ca 1300, which would be in the ball park if season tix were added.
Also, another possibility is that there would have been a good few people there before ever the count was put on the gate too. I got to the ground about 6.15 (not normally that early but went straight from work), and there was already 50+ cars in the car park at that stage, before the gate crew got on station (municipal ground, gates are open all day beforehand).

As far as I know we don't count season tickets and concession tickets. 1078 is probably the paying gate. Which is unfortunate as it really takes the gloss from a few of our attendances. 1400 minimum inside the ground last night.
140 at Longford-Monaghan on extratime
608 in Tolka according to extratime
Cheers for clarifying. When I said random, I meant as in "Why would anyone make up a figure like that. if it wasa guess it be 1,200 (or whatever)"
AFAIk clubs are required to count all entries into the ground (its a health and safety requirement)

Could well be, we have been doing that this year up to now, which is why I was surprised to hear last night's figure called out as a 'paid-in'.
Just to back up Frosty's headcounting skills BTW, very accurate shout on the Foras attendance, there were exactly 315 of them there!

60 tops at Salthill v Harps. Very weird watching senior football where the players are noisier than the crowd.

No way was there just 1,078 at the RCS last night. There was more like 1400-1500. The West Stand was nearly full (1150) and there were 300 ****ies in the East Stand. WUFC only count paying attendances not season tickets or concessions which made up another 2-300.
definitely more than 1,078 there last night!
Oh good, yet another riveting installment of the bi annual Waterford United attendances row.
Will ye sort yourselves out down there, how hard can it be to count what are fairly paltry crowds??
Must be the only club in Europe that don't include season ticket holders in the attendance.
Of course, I realise a lot of your figures on here, like a lot of the first division clubs on here are probably pure fantasy.
39,586 at The Brandywell last night.
Was hoping to get to the Shams game but the Luas was down, ridiculous, wonder if it might have affected attendances?
Not really, just add one
