They're not no. Theres an electronic counter in the control room that displays the attendance figure which is calculated from counting the number of times the stiles turn I think (can't remember the exact details)

Lots of seats and lots of people standing in front of the East Stand. I guessed minimum 5,600 before finding out the official figure

**MeathDrog** · 18/03/2011, 11:54 PM

Would estimate 900 at Drogs V Derry with about 150 Derry fans.

**Green&whitearmy** · 19/03/2011, 7:23 AM

I'd say about 1100 max at the bray sligo match, with around 200 or so sligo fans.. i stand for correction on it though, so people feel free to question this.

Shels v Wexford 812 - official

Should be docked points for muliple health and safety violations

Great crowd alright

I counted 47 at Salthill v Athlone tonight which is astonishing because there were more cars in the car park than people at the game. One guy kept moving so that figure could easily be 46 or 48.

There were probably more people in the Clubhouse talking about the rugby match than there were watching the game on the rain sodden pitch.

About 20 die hards from Athlone.

**Acornvilla** · 19/03/2011, 8:38 PM

extratime says about 250 at the town game, a lad i know at the game estimates 400, so I can say for certain there was 1 person at the game

Not a hope was there that much IMO. I'd say around 800 max with around 250 Rovers fans.

Quote of the century.

Over 200 Rovers supporters in Bray last Friday I'd say. Decent enough numbers

**nigel-harps1954** · 21/03/2011, 2:47 PM

Since there is no estimates or official attendance yet for Harps v Mons.
There was definitely more than was at the Limerick game so looking at around 600-650.

I thought the 510 estimate for Harps v Limerick was very low. Seemed to be the biggest crowd I'd seen for years at our games.

**nigel-harps1954** · 21/03/2011, 2:58 PM

504 was official. A lot of kids and such walk in for free after halftime, so thats probably where you seen more.
We should ideally be getting another 200 or so on top of that every week, very disappointed with our crowds last year or 2.
Picked up by about 100 or so against Monaghan and hopefully another 100 again next time round.

Yeah I got a taxi from work to Strandhill then got a flight to Dublin airport only took me four minutes to get through passport control. Then got 3 buses to Tallaght because there is no direct bus to Tallaght where mypost was waiting with his spaceship to bring me the rest of the way. Then myself and tom the gom thumbed a lift home. Good trip all round.

Would have been at home in the golden horde.

Another few thousand, and we'll need another stand.
