572 at Athlone vs Wexford is really poor.
Supposed to have been a great crowd in bray according to my mate

Shocking crowd in Athlone for their biggest game of the season, regardless of it being a Thursday night. There are things being done right there, reaching the play-offs back to back shows that, but there are few LOI clubs less ingrained in their community than Athlone the way Valeo have gone about it.
Galway 4323, Waterford 2463
4,998 at Pats Derry
4,605 home fans, 393 away fans

Fair play to Sligo for really adding to the atmosphere. However, they're awful craytures. Marching through Woodquay with balaclavas and then posting shyte online basically saying they marched around the whole city untouched as if the locals were battening down the hatches. Most Galwegians couldn't give a continental f#ck about Galway Utd nevermind 40 or 50 prepubescent schooligans. Maybe it'll be more intimidating when their voices break.
I saw videos of Rovers fans in Belfast. When they come to Galway, from my experience, they're there for the craic. I've ran pubs and have had the pleasure of dealing with them. They sing their songs but don't chant "intimidating" stuff that's copied from the Brits and they generally mingle with the locals in good humour. The village idiots from Shligo are pathetic. They were down earlier in the season and started throwing glasses into a pub where Utd fans were drinking. The pub also had families in there having a bit of food, I saw a pint glass miss a toddlers head by inches that night. Eir, the company with the worst customer service reputation, had to close their Sligo call-centre due to a lack of an available educated workforce. Says everything you need to know about them.
I wonder if the same gob****es from 10 years ago are still involved or if it's just a new generation of gob****es. They used to be messaging longford fans trying to organise scraps when we were in the PD in 2015/16. Bumped into the ring leader while I was shopping in sligo one day and he wouldn't say boo.

Brilliant crowd last night.
Let's get off our high horse a bit though. I saw the video of the Sligo fans marching through Woodquay last night. Gimps. They had a lot of scrotes in their support at the game last night. Sorry Ultras
But we're not in a position to be lording over them either though. A portion of our own fans embarrassed the club by vandalising the Showgrounds earlier in the year. We can't be questioning the education of Sligo fans when our own couldn't even spell inbreds correctly.
There's morons on both sides. I find the Green Street behaviour and muck posted online from both fanbases to be embarrassing.

A full house of 10000 on Friday for either a celebration or a wake would give us an average of 6097 for the season compared to 6109 last year which wouldn't be bad considering the amount of Monday and Sunday games whi h drag things down.
1,251 in Wexford at the playoff game today against Athlone. Good crowd for them
Paaatrick's Agletic
Looks a full house in the Bowl.
1112 apparently. So stand about 70% full
