Around 2,800 for the league Cup semi-Final in the Showgrounds. Rovers V Shams.
With about 500 Shams fans down.

That and I'm devastatingly handsome.

Completely unnofficial this but a Bohs mate reckons there "wasn't close to a 1,000 people" at Bohs v Bray last night

**Jicked** · 18/08/2010, 9:56 AM

This picture from their forum makes it look like a tiny, tiny crowd alright

I was'nt there last night as i had to work late but god that is shocking from a bohs point of view.

I wouldnt say the crowd was as high as 2800 last night.
I would hazard a guess of about 2500.

Do Sligo record everyone that comes through the gates either paying or ticket holders ? If they do then the attendance they call out should be correct but if they dont record season ticket holders then if its a large crowd it could be a safety issue if they dont now exactly how many they have in the ground.

Wha? Credit cards and booklets!
You show yer man on the stile your ticket, he says 'howya' and you walk through.
Infairness we dont get big enough crowds for it to be a safety problem

Its against licensing though. Everyone who's in the ground has to be accounted for.

What stile are you using. All they ever say to me is 'Behave yourself'.

I find them a particularly nice club all round. Sligo too are prety welcoming (in terms of ticket/programme sellers etc etc)

I was wearing a red jacket over my Bray top for the Derry game last year, and he thanked me for making the trip down! I think he recognises me now though, or did, before I left the country

I'm almost sure that is Paddy you are talking about

Actually it is Paddy, He is an absolute gent. He also puts the clubs match posters up aroud the town for every home game too. You couldn't meet a nicer man.

On the Bohs v Bray match, i though there was 400/500 at the game at max, terrible turn out.

Once I forgot my season ticket and I asked him could I get through anyway, expecting him to say no. He let me in, top top bloke

Must have been him that I was chatting to as I was walking past the Carlisle at our last game, he was putting up a match poster at the time. Nice man alright.
