Cabinteely didn’t have any proper fans themselves when they were in the league, mostly players families and a few interested local kids. I’d be surprised if many or any of those go to Bray games now but if they do it wouldn’t be noticeable at all in Bray’s crowd figures

That was a poor home attendance in Turners X last night.2 500 or so and 700 Bohs fans.
Usually no mistaking that there's a match on from Barrack Street going east and from the City Centre, but very quiet last night.
That 25 euro entrance is killing them.
I’m sure the €25 is part of the problem but Cork traditionally have had big swings in their support, depending on how well the team is doing.
I think this is the part of the season that we generally see a dip in attendances. I only saw Dundalk’s one from last night and that was just over 1500. Probably lower than their regular crowds.
1,587 at Dundalk v UCD last night, i think that was the lowest of the season. A bit disappointing as it was a fine evening in the end, very limited away support though, maybe 10?

703 in Finn Park and maybe 10 or so Wexford fans in that.

It's incredible how Cork City thought E25 was a good idea for their return to PD, madness in my view, and to borrow the line from championship clubs in England, 'twenty is plenty' (different currency accepted), but 25 euro is too expensive, end of.
For Dundalk, almost seems a staleness at the moment, just hard to get excited about the FD and very limited away support and fans picking and choosing is adding to modest crowds, started off with 2,600 now a few around 1,600, avg probably dropping below 2k. Just under 1,600 last night v UCD.
Not sure what solution is, oh yeah, promotion !

Promotion and product! Watching the current product is just a duty not enjoyment. A winning side too but its a grind to watch never mind get to games in mixed weather etc.
