Would have put Harps Kildare at 2000 tops. Very few in the stand to the left of the seats,and a good bit of room on the Town End terrace.

FD is an average crowd in the First Division; PD is an average crowd in the Premier Division. I've only put that in where the attendances was when the club was in a different one to their current division.
I knew someone would say that.
I thought that everyone had more or less concluded what had been the case all season long - that one of Longford or Waterford would go straight down, with the other in the play-off ?
I know there was and is still the chance of Galway technically being at risk, but it's difficult to see past Longford especially now, or Waterford either really.
Time will tell I guess.
That's because we beat you!
Had we lost on Friday we'd only be ahead of Waterford on GD and we're away to them this Friday.
It was a must win game for us, thank god for the chinese gambling syndicate for arranging the floodlight failure...
I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"
I heard that a points system was going to be used this year, whereby each win gains three points for the team that scores the most goals. In the event of a tie or "draw" both teams are awarded one point each. At the end of the season all "points" are totalled up for each side with final league positions being allocated appropriately. This applies to all teams except Longford, obviously![]()
SIGNATURESCOPE
It's been fairly clear from very early this season that Waterford and Longford where going to be in trouble. Waterford because they're poor and shouldn't have been in the league from a playing point of view, and Longford because they're not much better and had a 6pt deduction.
Maybe you need to wait until the end of game 33 foer the penny to drop.....![]()
they gave the attendance at the rsc as 1209 about 150 from galway made some noise.
We are the Galway Boys Stand up and make some noise"
Limerick 37 v Shels, Att: 603
LTID
UCD vs Pats- 886, although I thought there was about 1,000 myself.
