That's true but at least Cobh set a marker and put in a top performance for the crowd bagging 5 goals. Surely that's going to bring the majority back for more.

I missed the Cobh result last night, that's a terrific start for them and the crowd of 824 is a good base to start with as I wouldn't imagine that there were many away fans.

Welcome back Cobh.

the attendance was 100 thats 247 less than last year which is not very "seriously impressive"

**fionnsci** · 10/03/2013, 5:28 PM

3,578 in Thomond Park. Horrible day, live on telly etc. so a good crowd I believe.

A million, but you lose them all for thinking the Bray-Shels game was at Tolka.

Being at the game, as just mentioned in another thread, it seemed like much more than that. The kick-off should've been delayed by half an hour to allow supporters in. It won't put me off as I've seen it with the GAA but it'll put some off if it's not sorted.

Meh, I copied and pasted the post above me for it.

That's horribly disappointing from Athlone for the first game of the season.

Moved from Friday to Saturday because of the rugby didnt suit us and people dont have the money to attend games one night after the other. All clubs in the area pull from the same pot whatever the sport.

**Town Legend** · 10/03/2013, 8:56 PM

Are ye Sat night's for the season Battery Rover or was it just for this weekend?

The attendance had to have been more. There's no way that they could have counted the away fans either. Myself and the 3 people I went with are certainly not included in that figure. Imagine only printing 300 tickets for the away section!? What were they thinking?? Things were about to get ugly outside the ground until Tiktok showed up :-D
