There was a thread last season attempting to calculate the extent of away support over each round, so no harm in keeping it up again for 2025 - Kerry have announced that their 52-person coach to Cobh has already sold out, so that'll be the minimum Kingdom contingent at Colman's Park on Friday.
Only glanced over briefly at bray end on Saturday but it was a small crowd, maybe 30 max?
Harps had about 20 in Kerry I'm told....Liked this thread last year. The guy updating got needless grief if he had to guess and answer or didn't update it on time
He did get a lot of grief. Don’t blame him not wanting to do it again.Originally Posted by thebronze14
Purely aiming to do a Nigel-style guesstimate for each club, which would then feed into overall, Premier and FD averages, though obviously with the numbers involved, should prove far less complex than his thread! 11k Rovers fans mentioned in the discussion for that game.
PREMIER LEAGUE
Cork City v Galway United - 5,031
St Pats v Drogheda United - 5,034
Shels v Derry City - 4,780
Sligo Rovers v Waterford - 3,612
Bohs v Shamrock Rovers - 33,208 (11k Rovers fans 'culloty82')
FIRST DIVISION
Dundalk v Athlone - 2,600
Kerry v Finn Harps - 810 (Harps had about 20 'thebronze14')
UCD v Wexford - 318
Treaty v Cobh - 1,256
Longford v Bray 646 (maybe 30 away max 'outspoken')
I'd say was 30 or so Athlone fans in Oriel. Few them in the bar at half time too

I'm not sure if Galway Utd had 5,031 fans in Cork, think it was closer to 300!
Around 350-400 Drogheda fans in inchicore

This is a small thing but it bugs me. We don't have a Premier League. We have a Premier Division.

When people refer to the English Premier League as the Premiership it bothers me too.
He got grief because he was coming up with bizarre numbers that didn't reflect reality and also ignored figures people were giving repeatedly.
Bohs have sold out their Brandywell allocation for Friday night. I believe that's in the region of 350 odd.
My guess is that Waterford had 150-175 at the very least up in Sligo. Maybe more.
You have a kindred spirit here: England has a Premier League, Scotland has a Premiership, we have a Premeir Division. It’s very very simple
