I don't know where you are getting 50 away fans from for Waterford v Longford. I put down 20 but a Longford fan who was in the away section said was 5 or so there as per thread above.
Here is an update on advised/estimated away support for Game 2.
Premier
Derry v Cork 50+
St. Pats v Shels 800
Bohs v Dundalk 450
Drogheda v Shamrock 800
UCD v Sligo 150
First
Waterford v Longford 20?
Bray v Kerry 80
Athlone v Finn Harps 70/80
Cobh v Wexford 50
Galway v Treaty 100
Open to your suggestions.
1,100 tickets for Bohs at Pats next week.....
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Yep, that’s the allocation given to all away fans in Inchicore, 900 in the shed end and 200ish in the stand. Having said that, rovers were the only ones to sell out the allocation last year. This year it sounds like Bohs will probably join them in that but I’d imagine that'll be it

We tried allowing our fans in the shed end for a few matches against UCD and Derry last year I think and while there was no issues with UCD, there was a few verbals and maybe some stuff thrown when we played Derry so I can't imagine the club are too keen on having both sets of fans in the shed end with little separating them.
Those games were both on a trial basis and when there was no away fans in the shed. Derry had less than 200 so were all housed in the main stand so any away crowd over 200 and it’s a non runner. Coupled with the security issues mentioned, I can’t see it being a runner in most cases unfortunately.
It’s a similar situation to what Bohs have had the last couple of years where their demand for tickets has exceeded the Jodi stand yet away fans in the Des Kelly got 900 tickets and barring pats and rovers games it was never full. Bohs luckily had the empty space on the side of the pitch where the new stand is though. I can’t see any other potential workaround in Richmond's current state sadly

I'd say around 40 Galway fans in the RSC and they made decent noise.
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"

Over 3 hours normally but road works in Carrick on Suir put an extra half hour travelling down yesterday. There was approx 90 there 30 on the supporters bus and the rest drove down. Some noise quietened the 2,700 home fans.
11 Bray fans in Finn Park, or at least 11 away tickets sold, and didn't seem like any more than that in the ground.

Fair enough. I was in middle of that stand so didn't have a great view of away section . It's a long journey and not many away fans travel in first division.
Definitely a lot more than 30-40 Galway United fans, I would've said 70-80 probably.
Great crowd from Waterford at the game, there was a decent atmosphere at the game. You get the feeling Waterford will need to improve significantly or the crowds may drop off a bit.
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
Any UCD fans at the city game last night?
"Now jump up there and stuff that son of a bitch in the basket, chief"
I was getting updates from one anyway, but don't know many were down. Presumably not too many
