QuoteHarps v Shelbourne - 842
Disappointing to see less than 20 Shelbourne fans.

I've seen lots more Shels fans than that and, believe me, they don't get any less disappointing to look at.Originally Posted by nigel-harps1954
Was hoping it would break the thousand but at least a step in the right direction!
Waterford v Rovers - 2378
Don’t have a figure but Ltfc v Wexford was lowest crowd of the season. Didn’t look to be more than 200 there
1040 @ Lims v Waterford
850 was announced at the Bray v Cork game.
Read somewhere, about 850 at Bray v Cork with some 2/300 kids in free and about 100+ plus Cork fans.
On TV last night, I'd guess near 1,500 at Tallaght for Shams v Sligo
Derry estimated 1,500+ for St. Pats visit
Galway United vs Cabinteely 581
What’s the story with the Saudis these days?
Saw something in the sun (I think) the other day that they returned to Saudi and there hadn't been much contact in the last week or two. So ya never know what might happen now...
must've watched them
Dundalk v Bohs 3139
Excellent away support from Bohs at Oriel.
Nearer 2,000 at the Derry city v Pats game.
Mark Farren stand was almost full as no one was checking tickets to get access to it.
Yes noticed that, they had a very good turnout on the away terrace and a good few in the stand too, fair play for 7pm on a Sunday.
It might only be less than 50,but I think more were actually at this game (3,139) tonight than the Tallinn or AEK euro games (3,100 restricted capacity)
#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).
By chance I just saw an article about average attendances per club so far this year in the Brazilian serie A. I was amazed that some massive clubs there have fairly mediocre attendances. Vasco de Gama -7k. Botafogo about the same. Santos circa 10k. We're talking about super famous clubs here with massive traditions, in hugely populated cities in a soccer obsessed country. Maybe our meagre attendances aren't so terrible after all.
Well that's more to do with economics. The average person can't afford to go to games regularly as the cost of living is so high and wages so low.
Our attendances are compared to the English game and GAA rather than our contemporaries in Europe. We're roughly on a par with the likes of Serbia, Greece, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Belarus. Generally though, there's one or two teams in those leagues with much higher averages.
We don't do too badly, all being said. The problem though is just facilities here. Our stadiums are so far behind many European leagues.

Flamenco average about 45k per match, and Corinthians and palmeiras average 30k.
