Yes that was the attendance that was announced. Though AFAIK that would exclude season ticket holders and under 12s.

Biggest crowd in either (Prem & 1st) division this weekend I would guess?

**Patrick Dunne** · 07/10/2006, 3:49 PM

The official figure would include season ticket holders. There probably was significantly more in the ground, but for this thread we should use the official attendance.

Looked like about 2,500 from highlights.

City v Longford - i'd guess 2,200 from tg4 pictures.

**Kildare Lad** · 07/10/2006, 8:50 PM

id say about 250 at Kildare V Dundalk today

**Louth4sam** · 07/10/2006, 8:56 PM

Not a chance. About 120 with 100 from dundalk at that match

**pineapple stu** · 07/10/2006, 9:00 PM

Can't really believe there were only 20 Kildare fans, in fairness.

**Louth4sam** · 07/10/2006, 9:06 PM

22 tops

**Kildare Lad** · 07/10/2006, 11:26 PM

Ah here, there were more than 20! There was probably 20 on the far side beside the benchs alone! Im sticking with around 250.......

67 at Kilkenny V Harps this evening. That, by the way, is taking into account ballboys, directors and other who wouldn't have paid to get in

Many of them Harps fans?

**Mr A** · 08/10/2006, 12:42 AM

I think someone said that there were 10 Harps fans at the game.

Only 2 teams candidates for the bottom slot anyway, so not many involved. Conversely 6 or 7 in with a shot of either title - that's a third of the total league.

I'll predict a noticeable uplift in the overall average as the season draws to a close. Despite the backlog of fixtures and any lack of relegation.

Galway v Rovers is a good example of this, and will have boosted the overall average for Friday night.

Out of the 67, 16 were Harps supporters.

I didnt see anyone over that side so if there was i stand corrected. I still dont think there was anywhere near 250

Yes. Current eL ceases to exist at the end of this season. New league starts with participants invited. Of course teams position in the league this season is i think 20 or 30% of the criteria used to judge the invitees.
