Are you sure? I thought it was announced as 2045. It will be confirmed on the official site shortly.

to be honest i couldnt tell you, i was pretty sure it was 2845, could be wrong. good crowd anyways and great atmosphere in the second half, pity there wasnt more drogs fans down. good friday should be a sell out, with a large away attendance

About 1400-1500 at Shels game, decent away support - as predicted I can see our crowds dropping big time!

**pineapple stu** · 23/03/2007, 11:51 PM

560 at UCD-Cork, I think it was.

One of your fans posted elsewhere that he counted 400 Derry fans, which seems about right from being among them, and the home stand was nowhere near full.

If pushed I'd guess attendence of 1200-1300.

As for whoever said 2,000, some Cork-like self promotion going on there.

That is absolute sh!te, no way was there 1200. That is ridiculous. The new stand holds 1600, granted it wasnt full but not far off. With approximately 400 derry fans and approximately 1400 in the new stand, thats 1800. A far more accurate approximation. No ridiculous exaggeration of figures.

1800+ at Shels v Dundalk, confirmed by ShelsWeb.

Actually the new stand probably holds a bit more now, they have a wooden bench up the back of the stand. Most people usually stand here though. The Rovers website estimated 1900.

Which probably didn't include season ticket holders so probably 2,000 there

I honestly thought there was a crowd of 1,500 at it - thats twice I have underestimated the crowd this season!

You sure?
I thought the official attendence was announced as 8...
My rough guesstimate would be 9 anyway!

**Lim till i die** · 24/03/2007, 11:08 AM

Official attendance at Limerick37 v Kildare County: 742

correct, official attendance was 2045. I would have guessed maybe 40-50 drogs fans.

Was amazed at the attendance at the Longford - ROVERS game on friday in Flancare. It was poor.
The Rovers had the same if not more support than Longford.
About 800 is my guess with 400+ Rovers fans.

Does anyone know when the new Shed in Cork will open? Seen it on tv and was very impressed. How much does it hold?

It seems like it. Put over at the Jungle side at the new seats, right behind the away dugout. I'm sure if its a wet night you can always ask to be seated at Block A of the Stand.

**RonnieB** · 25/03/2007, 11:56 AM

agree with the midgit. Around 800-850 would be around the attendance.

**half_full** · 25/03/2007, 12:24 PM

i reckon 1400 plus at the RSC friday night.

home sections of the stand were pretty much full
id say about 900 (give or take) home fans in the stand
usual 100 or so on the bank beside the stand
large enough crowd of roughly 300 plus standing on the far side

about 50 Bray supporters in the away section

a conservative 1400 imo

not a bad crowd for us
