Attendances 2024

[joey B]

Or more so the fact Cork fans are bored ****less watching them this season and Treaty have been on a terrible run of form? Sometimes I think we over analyse stuff when it comes to attendances in this league, results are king (yes, I'm aware that's a counter productive point re cork but they had two bad results over BH weekend and football is very boring)

I listen to the 3 Amigos the odd time and they’re not enjoying their team,cantering to the league but they know they’ll go straight back down if they don’t heavily invest over the next couple of months and into next season….

Looks like attendances have definitely peaked outside of Dublin anyway. Attendances always down this time of year but feels to me that the mini boom most teams had post covid is over

[2 Year Contract]

Haven’t seen an official figure for Pats-Dundalk on Monday but it was similar to the crowd at the Galway game and with more away fans so I’d estimate around 4,000 for now. I’ll update here if/when I see anything official

3,934 has been added to this game on LOI Connect

You were 66 out TYC, come on now son, you are slipping.............................

Too many games a factor. Mondays are no replacement for Fridays. The Thursday GWs during the Euros are not going to help either.

2392 at the RSC.

[2 Year Contract]

Pats v Rovers tickets sold out for tonight. Not bad going for a Thursday night in the midst of 2 wins in 13 games

[Shearer]

2,524 in Cork.

[joey B]

668 in Finn park

[nr637]

2,524 in Cork.

A figure of 2,500 was the attendance expected by the club in its preparation!

[nr637]

2392 at the RSC.

Waterford seems to have established a core attendance of 2-2,500 for home games now!

[trevy]

Yeah, over 2700 was the figure given by club last night with around 400 Shels fans there I'd say.

Thursday game round saw four clubs record their lowest attendance figure of the season, one record their second lowest of the season, and two more their third lowest of the season.

[LTFC]

The last set of stats, so with 14 or so rounds of games to go attendances to date are greater than total attendances in the 6 seasons prior to 2022. Maybe its because I'm around a long time, but that is excellent imo.

UCD seem to bring the average attendances down. Premier up 1st down.

Aside from Cork (who weren't in it) and Treaty, everyone's average is down on their total from last season already. Attendances in First Division have been very poor recently, and only dropping each week.

[trevy]

Cork walking away with the first division probably affecting attendances.
2762 was the official figure from RSC from Thursday.

Call me whingey, but it seems nobody bats an eye when most First Division clubs attendances drop but when Treaty's do it comes under massive scrutiny.
I'll add Longford to that too.

There was hardly any need either to move all of the LOI games this week from Thurs to Fri, Germany v Scot was hardly a huge pull, plus it was the only game on too at Euro 2024 yesterday.
