"You're Only here to See the Rovers!"

I'd imagine after Saturday Kilkenny's highest attendance will also be Rovers.

And your biggest crowd was there to see DE TOWN. Maybe not as we brought more away support than there was home support.

Also Galways biggest gate will also be against DETOWN

No idea who detown are but you would be doing well to beat the crowd at Terryland when we were down.

The official figure for Galway /Rovers was way below the attendance because of the pressure of numbers. We had a meeting last night preparing for the Dundalk game and the consensus was the attendance was over 3,700which would explain some people thinking there was over 4,000 at it .

Extra gates had to be opened which lead to the confusion over the numbers as no record of season tickets or u12's were taken at these gates.

Didn't get the official attendance at the Rovers V Athlone match last night, however, I would guess at around 800.

There was definitely one more than reported anyway as my ticket wasn't taken off me when I went in.

Having been at both Dundalk v Rovers and United v Rovers I can't believe there were more at the match in Oriel.

800 seems very low for a team that are five games away from winning the division...

Monday night back match against one of the worst teams in the league. League games played monday to thursday always have bad attendances.

Our fans have stuck by the team this season. Normally when a club gets relegated fans leave in droves. Not Rovers.

I doubt there would have been much of a difference if the game was on Friday. It would only affect the away support.

Would have been about a thousand if it was friday. Interestingly the game monday was originally meant to be played on May the 21st. Surely some kind of record?

On your second point dont forget there is generally no away support in this division.

Judging by your friendly clubs thread you are obviously a WUM. But to answer your accusations we at least play in a better league. Still enjoy getting hammered in Europe every year then?

What?

You sure you and trueblue are not one and the same?

Whatever you say kid. Dont even know what you're talking about tbh. Doubt you do either.

**NY Hoop** · 19/10/2006, 12:42 PM

Look at the name of the thread. No boasting just making a point.

I am mocking your thread simply because you said your club had a link with Galway and it turns out nobody associated with GUFC had ever heard of a link.

Clear now kid?

Im hearing Dundalk have almost sold out their 400 allocation for tomorrows game in Galway

Interesting to hear what the crowd will be, as I`m sure Galway will pull in another 500 at least after the last 2 wins.

Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Good luck kid with that attitude. You'll need it.

Re the Galway game if there's no rain should be 3000 at it.
