    Well, they've at least managed to breach the triple figure mark before. But I imagine their poor figures are just far more noticable this season in Terryland, when over 95% of the stadium is empty.

    Well, we knew they wouldn't be good. I thought it would be in the 200-300 range mostly, due to a lot of people not really understanding what happened and that SD Galway are just Devon.

    The attendances were terrible to start with, but they've nosedived again. I was pretty surprised myself. They literally have tried to pay people to go and that hasn't worked.

    Approx 2,500 in Jackman to watch Limerick vs Liverpool XI. About 300 Limerick fans and 2,200 local Liverpool fans. Hopefully the club made a few bob out of it. Was a pretty well put together match day in fairness.

    It was funny the amount of Limerick fans I know who genuinely didn't bother with tonight. Like my dad is busy this week, said he'd save himself for the important stuff Friday.

    I must confess I went a little overboard with the celebrations when we scored hoping for a reaction from a few of the "Scousers" in attendance.

    Irish city in having more supporters of massive English club than local club shocker.

    Ya a good few regulars I know didn't bother with it either. Come to think of it, saying 300 Limerick fans might even have been generous.

    I saw a woman with a Liverpool flag.

    Kids swarming on the field at the end to get the autographs of never will bes while two Irish internationals stood on the grass bank.

    People coming into the shop all day looking for "Liverpool match" tickets.

    On the plus side the set up in Jackman was decent in fairness.

    Any figure given for the Setanta Cup Final? Would like to think there was 5000+ there for the game

    Thats not bad for the Setanta Cup as most fans of clubs claim to not care about it. Are St Pats unhappy with their crowds ? Bohs, with a very weak squad are still getting more supporters turning up at their matches than them.

    I think thats the lowest attendence for the SC final ever. Not great considering the final was local to Crusaiders and not too far from Derry

    having been at every pats games, and a couple of Bohs games, thats not close to being true. Despite what their figures might indicate.

    I`ve no idea what Pats`s crowds are. The Bohs crowds are official figures provided by the club to the FAI and whoever wants them in the media. I would have guessed the Bohs crowds to within a couple of hundred of the official figures. Not really sure what you are on about Dodge, are you saying that the Pat`s figures are under reported?

    i think hes implying that we report our all our members/season ticket holders or something. Dont think we do. Otherwise not sure what hes banging on about. Pats crowds have usually always been a few hundred lower than ours (according to this site).
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    700 - season ticket /members/associate members, I doubt even Dodge is claiming that we are getting attendances of 6-700.
    Understandable that Pats would be disappointed with their crowds given that they are challenging for the league and now playing decent football for once ( except when they play Bohs)

    Dodge, perhaps you should clarify that statement. I know Bohs provide official verified figures so either Pats are giving incorrect figures or you are talking crap.
