Judging from the Soccer Republic highlights it looked like about 700-800 I'd say. Assuming there weren't too many more out in the rain.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

Attendance at the RSC - 468
I'd make the assumption the above was the attendance between Blues and Wexford.
From the clips on soccer republic it's hard to see how the figure was anything more than 800. Looked a dreadful evening weather wise, but the main stand appeared less than 1/2 full and any area camera facing looked quite sparsely attended.
I'm sure the weather was a big factor in the crowd.

#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
Cork's attendance drops by over 4,000 since the bumper crowd who turned out for the visit of the Champions last week. Is this a record fall in attendance?
Marketing Director must have been on holidays...
Very drastic and disappointing drop in attendance.. if the torrential rain that was falling all day continued then I'd understand but the rain stopped around 3 hours before kickoff. I would've been happy with 4000. Just shows what losing a big game in this league does, the bandwagoners jump off. Letting a 2 goal lead slip was just as disappointing but at least we got the late goal to win it.
Wait, so - Cork is in Dublin now?
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
1200 and something the crowd announced at Dalymount.
Shelbourne v Cabinteely - 391. That's shocking.

Not really. Shels have had a difficult start, especially at home. Our crowd would be similar if we'd done the same.

But, you'd imagine Cabinteely would have brought a decent enough crowd up with them. It's only the other side of the city, that'd be the difference in Harps and that game.
For what it's worth, a bit of a drop in Finn Park tonight too, probably around 750 or 800 there. Bit of rain in the evening didn't help matters.

The "shocking" terminology amuses me on this forum sometimes Nigel.
I can't believe that someone who follows this league would be overly surprised at any attendance figure unless it was in the higher brackets.
Won't be too long until 400 will be coming to the showgrounds to watch us by the looks of it.
About 400 at Drogs v Bray. Worst crowd of the year.
You've got no fans.
