Cheers for a re-hash wws.

Move to go to the jacks during the game or something then try.

It's an attempt to be MORE accurate than the Star though obviosly it won't be the full story. It was also an attempt to get thesepublicised to avoid wailing and gnashing of teeth like happened among Bohs fans when their real figures were publicised this season (some of their crowds last year were just as bad.

Tommy, I did give them earlier in the season, but there really was no point in me giving pretty accurate estimates (going low side of what I thought) when it was clear other clubs contributors were not. Half the thread is taken up with people arguing about the figures, and getting them bumped up.

In fairness when it started out, everyone that they'd round down, and i can only say for myself, if i had put a figure down it was the lower one (and as Pete said, it was a fairly close guess to what actually was there) ....... and between the 4-5 from City giving figures, the smaller one was always agreed upon.

Yep, that's me taking figures from here, Bohs official figures and the Star. Probably best taken with a pinch of salt.

Is it your fault that the page is titled "Attendances Iceland average" so?

Says �ire when I look!

As far as I know, everything about UEFA licencing is to come into force next season with the possible exception of the grounds. Official attendances I think come under the financial side (to do with audited financial accounts, etc.) and so should be available from next season.

At least then we'll be able to see which posters talk the most rubbish!

A lot of that was Cork and Bohs fans to be fair.

Don't mean to sound patronising Macy but I thought you did a great job

OK, maybe a bit late, but like Dodge I just kinda forgot about this thread.

v Waterford (just after the Cup final) 1000 max
v Drogheda 800
v UCD 1000?
v Longford 1200?

BTW Tommy, you reckoned 1200-1400 for the Pats-Rovers 5-3, I'd have put it at no more than two-thirds of that. I was on the phone to DvB about five minutes before kick-off and we were wondering whether we'd break 800 between us. Youse had about 300 in Section A & B, say about the same scattered along the rest of the main stand and one sad ******* sitting all on his own in Section E. Throw in a hundred or so for the Subbuteo stand, but if we had even 400 there I'd be amazed.

I was early and thought the same but it seemed to fill up a bit. I was going on roughly 700-450 on the sides (crowds can be decieving in the riverside) and 150 behind the goals. I left a bit of give and take as I couldn't get to the far side to see the stand properly, and if you're looking from the corner it seems fuller than it is.

BTW that total was significantly better than Bohs managed on two consecutive trips to play us in Tolka in 1997.

Cheers, if you look at that table from that link I'd say our crowds were (disappointingly) pretty much around the figure, but there's no way we were that far behind everyone else, particularly the likes of Drogs and Waterford...

so where can I find all the average attendances of the past season...........

because at European Football Statistics the stuff doesn't work

I need the averages

**Schumi** · 04/03/2004, 11:22 AM

Any figure you get will be mostly guesswork.

**IJsbrandij** · 04/03/2004, 11:26 AM

I know but I'd like to see the outcomes........

Bytheway.......... in the new UEFA Licensing regulations is there also a plight to send the official attendances out?

**TommyT** · 04/03/2004, 3:56 PM

Yes

**IJsbrandij** · 04/03/2004, 8:05 PM

Tommy T how do you know... is it in the Licensing Manual.........

This is a great releave !!!!!!!!

And Tommy T can I get the attendances average from last season from you?
