Why not get it up and running I guess.

Tough start to the season for everyone except UCD who haven't noticed an obvious drop off.

[Nesta99]

Could use whatever scant infor there is on TV or streaming figures in the interim?

[Martinho II]

Hopefully the 200 season ticket holders will be allowed in soon to gradually increase these figures!

[ger121]

Are they all actual official attendance figures so far this season or are there a few guesstimates? I only ask because some of the averages seem a bit on the high side.

I have, admitted, had to field off a few private messages telling me Bohs and Drogheda have had inflated figures this season.

[pineapple stu]

Why aren't you counting season ticket holders in the figures? That's how they do it in other countries, so it must be best

[Buller]

Hi Nigel, for the Shamrock Rovers v Dundalk game in Tallaght, looked like about 236,000 spectators in the RTE 2 stand, give or take 10,000. Decent crowd and hopefully more against Bohs in the derby.

I spent the second half looking in living room windows around the country, and counted a lot less.

Most of them were just looking over the fence though. Only about 45k actually at the game.

Yeah the kitchen barstools were full! Frustrating to hear people say that they wouldnt step foot in a living room to watch LoI,

[Martinho II]

I know with us that one of the Section O lads used a stepladder to watch match over back entrance to ground does that count?

It would count toward a 'diminished capacity' criminal defence were they to ever find themselves in trouble!

[nr637]

So, from this weekend the actual official attendance figures will be 200 or 500 at all home games!

There will be no need for guesstimates?

No it’s still 100 or 200 (depending on grounds capacity) this weekend.

From the 5th of July onwards it's up to 200 or 500

[Longfordian]

They're bringing it forward to this weekend apparently. We're expecting to have a capacity of 500 on Saturday.

[sbgawa]

Brought it forward to sort out the feckin GAA (and Longford ) no consideration for the LOI as a whole

[Longfordian]

The way things are going we'll be doing well to get 500. Though in ordinary times Sligo would travel in big numbers.

[nigel-harps1954]

I do believe the LOI clubs should just follow suit. Put 500 in this weekend and follow the GAA. See what the excuses are if anyone says otherwise.

I think 500 is fairly safe in an outdoor setting, provided you can cater to such capacity.

[EatYerGreens]

The way things are going we'll be doing well to get 500. Though in ordinary times Sligo would travel in big numbers.

Up against Ukraine v England too.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

The way things are going we'll be doing well to get 500. Though in ordinary times Sligo would travel in big numbers.

I assume ye wouldn’t through a few tickets our way?
