2005 Attendances

**superfrank** · 02/07/2005, 11:13 AM

About 2000 at Drogs-Bray. The West Stand was packed, as was the seated area.

**chippie0001** · 02/07/2005, 2:28 PM

The Bohs - Waterford game was 1,309, worst paying in crowd of the season.

Yeah, that must be it...can't think of any other reason!

Actually wasn't a bad home crowd - over 400, given the numbers youz say you brought (70-100). Add in summer, people being away, June/July crowds always the lowest, etc., it's better than, say, a few years ago when the game regularly had 250 at it.

Most of our players evidently thought so too!

I'd go along with that

**JC_GUFC** · 03/07/2005, 12:59 AM

About 250 at Kildare v Galway

**monutdfc** · 04/07/2005, 11:53 AM

About 450 I'd say at Monaghan United v Sligo Rovers

**pineapple stu** · 04/07/2005, 12:48 PM

The Star mentioned 1120 at Longford-Rovers and 350 at Cobh-Dublin City. I'm not putting them in (as we all know about the Star's accuracy...), but 1120 is an unusual figure - would this be official?

**pineapple stu** · 04/07/2005, 12:57 PM

Athlone v. Kildare and Athlone v. Kilkenny - both 200-ish.

Wouldn't have thought so but it wouldn't be too far off, my guesstimate was 1100-1200. So maybe 1150!

I have the offical attendences for Shels last two league games from Fintan as always

Derry was 1145

Longford 812

I knew Longford was bad but that's pathetic, shows how fickle some people can be I suppose, but with the shyte football we're playing a drop in crowds was always on the cards really.

Dublin City will be catching up with ye soon.

Suppose moving north county dublin sticks couldn't make matters any worse.

**jorge** · 05/07/2005, 7:13 PM

I know whats all the fuss about?

**higgins** · 05/07/2005, 7:14 PM

Your forgetting the U2 concert that was on the same night as the Longford game.

Myself and 3 others ere at that and we would have otherwise been in Tolka. Apart from the people going to U2 there was many more put off by the traffic around the area which was very bad.

Still brutal but there are some reasons...
