Looked on the mark to me. Looking accross from the new stand side there was plenty of empty spaces in the stand, especially down by where the Bray fans where.

300 from the photo I have, 270 in the stand and another 30 around the ground.

Fair enough, I won't argue.

Aside,
There was a big gang of foreigners who were good fun. They got ludicrously excited every time Longford entered the UCDD half.

To be honest the crowd did not look like it had halved from 3000 for the Cork game to 1500 for the Bray game, I stand to be corrected.

i thought it did tbh. half the seats in the stand were empty and there were very few behind both goals and on the 'new stand' side. even those standing at the back of the 'old stand' were only one deep whereas for cork it was 3 or 4 deep. even section A was only about half full on friday

I was standing at the new stand so had a good view across the pitch, section A was not full and the Bray section was not either, but I have seen the stand with much less people and bigger attendances recorded, but we will go with the official figure, as I was not counting!

yes but it was full for the cork game, and i was in the same spot for both games. definately about half the crowd on friday night

No, the weather was good. The crowds have been dropping steadily, but this is about half the previous lowest attendance for a league game. Looks like the results are turning people off, unfortunately. Maybe it's just a blip, we'll see on Tuesday against Limerick. Although I'm sick of looking at them this season!
