2006 Attendances

CollegeTillIDie · 29/04/2006 6:20 PM

Smallest crowd I was ever part of was in 1977/78 at Tolka Park.
The visitors were Cork Alberts and the hosts were you guessed it
HOME FARM.... and the attendance including me was 28!

Pathetic but the pitch aint helping matters.

Last year when the club was on the ropes fewer than 500 bothered to watch a game at the RSC between Waterford United and UCD. The hardcore Blues fans like you, Partizan, I exempt from the following comments:
I sometimes wonder do the general public in Waterford deserve an EL team given their recent pathetic turn out at games?

600 "wasn't bad"? Is that a typo? 'Cos 600 would be poor for youz, I would have thought.

Edit - 650 at Harps-Rovers.

Tonight was definitely our biggest crowd of the season-I'd say 3000, as for 4000? Not a hope!

We Cork City fans gets slagged off for exaggeration yet big differences in suggested figures for Sligo here...

shedhead · 30/04/2006 2:05 PM

what exaggeration are you on about? The most exagerated by a rovers fan was 3068, while the lowest was 2900. If u read the threads properly u would of seen that shels web reported at as 4000.

pineapple stu · 30/04/2006 4:27 PM

350 at Cobh-Galway.

Sam Savic · 30/04/2006 6:01 PM

I'd guess a figure of 900 at Harps V Rovers. About 650 locals and 250 Hoops.

pineapple stu · 30/04/2006 6:04 PM

Mr A on the Harps forum had 500 Harps and 150 Hoops...?

I think my figure is more accurate, though Harps had a ticket system and should be able to give a correct attendance.

Don't know where you got that from.

My figure was merely a guesstimate from someone at the match. It may have been slightly higher, we might get an official figure at some stage.

don't even start kiddo. we took 250 fans to donegal for a first division game. thats the least that will travel by a bit this season. thats not bad in anyones book. did you take 250 to ballybofey 2 years ago for a derby?

i would have guessed 500 and 250 harps - rovers meself.
