Yeah, they didn't half not hang around in getting them out of the city!

Delighted with that attendance. As people say it was a Tuesday night, a lot of junior teams had training and there was junior soccer fixtures on tonight also. If that was last year in the first division we would be lucky to get 306 not to mind 3,006.

Yep decent crowd, excellent actually for a tues night. Impressive also if Rovers took 300-400.

Also Im sure you're enjoying away support for a change, that was the one big thing we missed in most games for the 7 years we were in the FD, often there would be home games with zero away support.

Dlk are playing in Limerick in late July I think, already mention of groups planning a trip and Jurys overnight stay, as I think the match has been moved to a Sat night.

1566 here in oriel tonight

[adamd164]

Cork City v UCD - 2,076

[nigel-harps1954]

664 in Finn Park, with I believe, 3 Wexford fans.

[Bawnville Hoop]

About 3,500 at Tallaght Stadium

[trevy]

345 at Waterford United v Athlone as per extra time match report.

[White Horse]

664 in Finn Park, with I believe, 3 Wexford fans.

I hope ye looked after those three lads.

LOI heroes.

[Sam_Heggy]

711 at Finn Park according to treasurer and Chairman.

Lower attendance figure but higher gate income. Happy days.

[nigel-harps1954]

I wonder where the 664 came from then. Strange one that.

[Bray Head]

About 1100 at Bray/St Pats

[MiniMourinho]

1566 here in oriel tonight

1566?? Why a drop off of about 700 from the last game and 1000 from the game before that?

Fans are scratching their heads at the reduction of 600 from the Drogheda game. There seemed to be a similar number of home fans. Drogheda bought 200-300 whereas Limerick brought 50.

Rovers brought a lot of fans to the first game which accounted for higher attendance than the Drogheda game.

[dong]

1800 in Tallaght according to The Star and a few on TrampTalk.

[SkStu]

The wheels are coming off...

Yes, 1.5 was poor, and still the fans have not seen a home win this season, but to be fair its the first game in 4 that we dipped below 2,000 and less than 50 away fans were there.

However it is disappointing all the same as taking away the Drogs away support that is 500 people who decided not to go compared to last Thursday. Derry at home next Friday will hopefully be better attended, but then again, 2 homes in 7 days could be a factor?

PS Thought it looked well below 1,000 for Bohs v Derry, especially as only one stand was open.

[Comic Book Guy]

For what its worth, salthill v ramblers attendance 65, about 25-30 from Cobh.

Strange. Don't get me wrong 1500 is a lot compared to some, but 500 is a massive drop. Hopefully just an anomaly.
