That's staggering to be honest. Fair play to all the travelling Usher Celtic fans.
There was actually a lot of them there.
Where is the club based?
Usher! Dublin City.
Usher Celtic FC, an inner city club named after a short stretch of roadway along the quays. Founded in 1934, the club has drawn many of its players from this area over the decades, Usher's Island, Usher's Quay, Bridgefoot Street and Oliver Bond Flats.
According to Google !
So the same part of town as Oliver Bond Celtic?Usher! Dublin City.

3,921 announced on the TV for the Pat's Dundalk match.
Yes, although if there is a distinction geographically then it is that one has grown slightly North facing (at least at senior) and the other one South facing (at least underage) from what I can tell.
2,503 for Galway v Harps on Monday night, our third highest gate of the season.
Clever marketing move having FAI cup SF tickets being on sale at the game.
Didn't see a figure announced for Dundalk v Cork City last night, but I'd say it was on track to be one of the lowest since 2012 (obv not counting covid restricted reduced capacity).
Fair play to the 10-15 who made it up, including the secondary school lad who's timeline was posted on twitter, he got out of school at 1.30, 2 trains, 1 luas, lift to airport, aircoach to Cork and home for 4am, deserves a medal or at least a voucher from the club for some kit.

Impressive for Pats, but always wondered what areas hold what there if on a game like this the 'shed' end was closed out. There was a gap between away fans in the main stand, behind goal was busy but not completely full, if say 1,800 between main stand and behind goal, that leaves 2,100 Camac side, I`m not sure these figures stack up?

The main stand holds around 1800 alone so even given the segregation gaps there's still at least 1600 seats or so there. Patron Stand behind the goal holds 900.
Didnt realise main stand at Pats held 1,800, ok so if you give 1600 for that last Friday, and maybe 750 (from 900) for open stand behind goal = 2350 - 3921 = just under 1,600 in the camac side?
Would there really be that amount over that far side ?

Attendances at Richmond have always baffled me too. Maybe the fact the camac is standing it fits far more in more densely.
Could be. It was absolutely packed in there on Friday. The Shed End holds around 1,000 so it wouldn't surprise if the Camac was able to hold more. The capacity is listed as around 5,000, now I think it's slightly lower but I thought the safe capacity was 4,200 at one stage but we've definitely beaten that on numerous occasions this season.
5,011 was the crowd for Pats vs Bohs a few weeks back. 5,000 was also surpassed in when rovers (and bohs) came earlier in the season. Those are the only fixtures that 5k gets surpassed for though because they’re the only 2 that sell out the away allocation. The home allocation is approx 3,900 and has been sold out too many times to count off the top of my head this year

I have been wondering for a while also, plus thought my take on estimates on the main stand (1600 - was there even that there) and behind goal (750) were more than fair, even at that it still leaves around 1,600 in that medium size camac area, not sure if all that stacks up.
Its a small ground, i would have thought 750 max in Camac area, that would have given a crowd of 1600 + 750 + 750 = 3,100 last fri night, would seem to be more on the money, but obv a much higher crowd was announced (3,921)

You can take the tinfoil hat off my friend, the camac holds over double what you seem to think it holds so your estimates can be considered woeful with all due respect

No, the 750 I am saying in Camac is not my estimate on the capacity, its what I am asking if that was the crowd there on Friday, as if 3,920 was the correct crowd, and allowing for 3/4 full main stand and same one behind goal, still means there were around 1,600 in the Camac area last Friday, that seems a lot.

Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
903 at harps for the definition of a nothing game. 507 at the Carlisle. Goes to show how broken things are at Bray. Die hard Bray fans saying how they won't even want to go to home games. Place is beyond morbid
