5,512 at Tallaght tonight v Sligo
5,512 in Tallaght on a bank hol weekend v a team most view as relatively irrelevant (sorry!), isn’t bad!
Don't flatter yourself KH, the LOI performed well and really didn't miss Rovers (Shamrock) for the period 2013-2018, plus a fair few teams came to Tallaght and handed out some decent spankings in that period too. We were one of them and won a League title there, and a league League Cup.
Sligo from a town of 25k usually draw just under 3k home support btw.

That'd a really strange response to Kh making a pretty reasonable comment that 5500 on a bank holiday weekend isn't a bad crowd against sligo. It's a simple statement of fact thatvfor rivers supporters a game against sligo is a nothing sort of game that doesn't have the edge that derry pats dundalk bohs, even shels would have. Its an eminently skipable game for non die hards
715 at the Markets Field
Numbers are really poor at Treaty matchs considering their expecting 30,000 at Limerick V Clare in the hurling tonight.
Whilst Junior Soccer is very strong in the city , from the perspective of drawing big crowds Hurling & Rugby are the only sports in Limerick with large attendances .

Not sure what the away support was last night, the terrace section wasn't full but Drogs had front corner of stand, so prob 500 all in?
Means just over 2,300 home fans, its clear 500+ are not going anymore since we stopped winning / challenging for league titles. Our highest for the season so far is 3,700 or so, recent results obviously not helping but still a little disappointing.

Drogs sold out the away allocation and asked for, and received, more stand tickets. Not sure what that totals to.
Ah it wasnt really, it was dismissive and did come accross as dripping with entitlement and I was rolling the eyes. That said, and I dont mean this disrespectfully, Sligo are a club that few, if any, have significant beef with and so can lacks that edge that can get a floating fan through the turnstiles. When Sligo have the best facilities developed by a LoI club and can focus resources on their team, win a title or two and that 'edge' will happen!
Derry v Pats was another sold out game in the Brandywell. With terrace tickets now being on sale that would mean 3,800 but i would allow 150 season ticket holders to have not been in attendance which would be normal at a guess.
St Patrick's sold out their away allocation.
4300 in EDP v Cobh according to FAI Connect app
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
As we were talking about Dalymount capacity issues recently, I just went on Bohs website to try to buy a ticket for the derby in 2 months time. Tickets apparently went on sale at midday and they’re already sold out. I’m not sure how quickly they sold out but I was checking before 3pm and they had already gone.
1,853 at the RSC v Wexford.
