[CollegeTillIDie]

Attendence was 650 and were bored ****less by the long ball game Limerick are playing this year "shur isnt it better then last year?" answer... no! we may have come last but at least we played football.

Limerick were an attractive footballing side last year....

[Partizan]

Waterford v Derry approx 1300

C/\wk v Waterford last night 5500.

[Buller]

1,300 is a very decent crowd for waterford considering their circumstances...

[Frankfurt Hoop]

1800 at Rovers v Pats. Posted by a Trustee/Director on SRFC Ultras Board.

[De Town]

1800 at LTFC v Bohs.

[Comic Book Guy]

350 at Cobh Ramblers/Athlone

[pineapple stu]

About 200 at Dundalk-Dublin City, from a lad in work who went up.

[Countyman]

In a nutshell are the average attendences up or down for each division in comparison with the last season that ran from Autumn to Spring?

[pineapple stu]

No idea. Don't have any even-vaguely-reliable stats.

[thomas]

Yeah official attendance 1751 for rovers v. pats.

btw, the league marketing director recieves attendances from every club as part of the licence requirement. dunno if its for public use or not.

Its a small step but the league has to get attendance figures. How else can it tell if the league doing better...?

[pineapple stu]

Dunno if it's for public use or not.

It's not. We've asked.

[Slash/ED]

I PMed Fintan but he didn't get an offical attendence for the Drogheda game but guesstimated around 2,200 which I'd go along with.

[Breifne]

Kilkenny 138 (110) (Dublin City (2))

If this was the second game in Kilkenny, i would guess at about 200 / 250. A decent crowd considering neither side have huge support.

Worth noteing the guesstimate from Cork for this game was 5,500

[superfrank]

I'd say around 1800 tonight at the Bohs-Bray match.
