475 at the Limerick Cobh game Friday night
Kildare County v Shels: 450
A few weeks ago I guesstimated there was no more than 3,500 at the Drogs game. I was, for once, attempting to be kind to DCFC. At the time 2,950 seemed a more realistic figure.
From what I seen on TG4 they would have been pushed to have had 100 in Drogheda on Friday!!!![]()
about 1100 id say for our game...
We haven't seen 100 away fans at the Brandywell on a Fri night in a long time. So credit to anyone who makes that awful journey to or from Derry on a Friday with all that traffic. It's not exactly the short trip from Belfast down the M1. And for our attendances they have been averaging approx 2500 all season, not bad for a mid table outfit.
As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls
304 at Wexford v Limerick
May the Lord have mercy on all our souls
I heard a figure of 1500 for the Harps Dundalk game.

This is the biggest football derby in Irish football so where was everyone?
