Assume 4,700 must be capacity limit at that. Certainly not 5,500.

I think I’d agree with this for 4,700. That was a Sunday evening game too as it was in the middle of the EL group stages and Dlk won the league that night also. From last nights figure, I’d imagine 4K were home fans, that’s an excellent turn out really.

**Buller** · 03/07/2018, 1:52 PM

I'd guesstimate 2,800 at Rovers v Derry City on a sunny evening in Tallaght stadium.

Very few Derry away fans. Lots of families which was great to see.

**nr637** · 04/07/2018, 11:42 AM

What was the attendance at the Showgrounds on Saturday night last for the Waterford visit, did I hear close to 3,000+ /

Anyone there on the night to confirm or estimate !

1,762 official.

**nr637** · 04/07/2018, 1:21 PM

Must have read 2762, but still a decent crowd all the same, if only Sligo could hit a consistent run as they have an incredible support that are prepared to turn up at any cost.

**ToberonaTornado** · 06/07/2018, 10:58 PM

1290 pats v dundalk
good crowd up from Dundalk.

**trevy** · 07/07/2018, 7:38 AM

1831 at Waterford v Bohemians. Good crowd considering World Cup quarter final was on.

**disgruntled** · 07/07/2018, 9:40 AM

Just over 3700 at Turners Cross.

3749. Disappointing for a Shamrock game. I suspect many were watching Brazil Belgium.

**oriel** · 07/07/2018, 11:56 AM

I was quite surprised to see that figure announced as I would have expected closer to 5k than 4 for Cork v Rovers, but WC QF is a major attraction.

There should have been no reason why all games couldn’t have been played on the Thursday night for this week only.

The world cup is a killer alright. Im very pleasantly surprised that the CL game is selling out despite the semi final at the same time.

**Nah Nah Nah Nah** · 08/07/2018, 8:29 PM

271 in Bray today

**pineapple stu** · 08/07/2018, 9:53 PM

Why was it on the Sunday?

**DFCForever** · 08/07/2018, 10:16 PM

That was so it wouldn't clash with the World Cup quarter-final on Friday night. Obviously it'd didn't help boost the attendance much...

**pineapple stu** · 08/07/2018, 10:27 PM

Makes sense actually

I don't think Thursday night attendances would bear that out. Maybe if it had been announced weeks in advance.
