Does anyone have any numbers for how many Ireland fans were at the Euros? I've seen figures from 60,000 to 100,000. Just wondering if there's any consensus on how many were actually there

A consensus census?

Jesus DeL, a concensus... it's right there!!!

**DeLorean** · 05/07/2016, 9:48 PM

Consensus census is so much more fun though.

yeah, and concensus just looks like bad spelling!

A census consensus is senseless.

Let's say 20k at the games and at the very most 5k without tickets so I'd say (gets out the calculator) 25k and max 30k.

there was more than that at the Italy game, there was 44,000 at it - seemed to be 3/4 Irish = 33,000

No way was it 3/4 full of Irish. Many neutrals on both sides. Perhaps 3/4 as compared to Italian support but the ground certainly wasn't 3 quarters full of Irish.

It felt like it was Owlsfan. I was surprised as I thought Paris or bordeaux would get more in general around the place but Lille was packed with Irish.
