Sorry - a real nerd question here. What was KCs first home game in the eircom league. Also what was the attendance at that game and what is the ground capacity?

First home competitive league game was a 3-1 loss to Limerick. Can't find an attendance figure though. Ground capacity is 2500.Originally Posted by Santry_Goonshow

Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
Many coming down for the game? Very stormy here at the minute
had around 15 away fans scattered around the ground

Everyone needs something to believe in, I believe I'll have another beer.
V Limerick in our first competitive game in the LOI D1 Cup there were 3,000.
What were you drinking that day Philly?? Think you might have been seeing double, 1,500 is more like it.
That was one of 3 occassions that we broke the 1,000 mark that season, wonder if we'll ever see that size crowd again?!?
In 2005 i think it was we had about 1,500 when we played Rovers
Cmon County!
2005 V Shamrock Rovers must have been a friendly? so wouldn't have counted unless it was a record attendance. Attendances in the box are league only coudn't find attendances for league and fai cup games but iof anyone thinks they might have let me know and I'll put em in or edit the page yourself. 1,100 for 2006 was official far as I know.

Well there could be that rumoured Dave Langan testimonal against a leeds 11 managed by Steve Staunton. Would surely attracty over 1,000.
As a matter of interest lads what are the three games that attracted over a 1,000 to Station Road, Limerick in the cup, the game against the Kildare gaelic football team and the Shamrock Rovers game Kildare lad is talking about?. Will put them into the page if we can all agree on numbers, dates and competition.

Sorry must have been 2006 im thinking of so, it was played in the league around the start of April I think.
Cmon County!
During our first season, we had more 1,000 at the first game against Limerick and then we had a double against Finn Harps and Waterford around Christmas time when both were going for promotion. As far as I know, there were over 1,000 at both those games. Daryl Murphy now an Irish international, scored a great goal for Waterford in that game.
