Expect some big attendances this weekend. Particularly in Omagh for Tyrone v Dublin, Castlebar for Mayo v Kerry and Wexford park for Wexford v Cork. It will also be interesting to see if Offaly gets a big crowd after their performance against Dublin last week. SlipperyDodger (Cork) - Posts: 93 - 03/02/2018 00:19:30 2073506 Link 0 |

Big crowds to be fair on Saturday night especially for football matchs when you consider Rugby on TV as well. OpenStand (Limerick) - Posts: 658 - 04/02/2018 10:35:31 2073784 Link 0 |
The stand in MacHale Park holds 10,000 and was full. There was a if crowd the far side and behind the bacon factory end. Looked more like 15,000 rather than the just under 12,000 as officially reported. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11219 - 04/02/2018 10:40:16 2073785 Link 2 |
The attendances in this weeks National Hurling League SlipperyDodger (Cork) - Posts: 93 - 04/02/2018 20:28:16 2074040 Link 0 |
SlipperyDodger, you were right about Semple anyway. 2,344 was the attendance yesterday, and I'd say about 2/3rds of the crowd were Rossies. I'd have preferred a double header on the Saturday evening myself. decky (Roscommon) - Posts: 384 - 05/02/2018 10:04:53 2074167 Link 0 |

Don't they only count those who pay through the gate. All kids under 16 would be free so your 15k figure is probably accurate.

You may be right there. I was under th impression they "clicked" through everybody. 2 friends of mine got in free as they knew the man at the gate..a lot of that still goes on around the country

Cant be far off 100,000 attended Hurling or Football league games the weekend past. 30,000 at those 5 hurling league games mentioned above and juveniles are minimum 20% more. Some very big crowds at football too circa 15K Castlebar, 10K in Omagh etc. OpenStand (Limerick) - Posts: 658 - 05/02/2018 12:42:32 2074243 Link 0 |

If that's the case, I hope Meath hockey them tomorrow and I would rarely support Meath.

I thought crokepark needed to get 35,000 supporters in to even break even? That's a poor support all the same.

Think the figure is nearer 25,000 but it's not a concern for Croke park when the Dublin Co board are renting it out. I presume the fee is the same no matter what the attendance. As for last night, the crowd was poor enough alright, but it was a miserable evening in Dublin so i'd imagine a lot of the more casual support opted for an evening by the fire, given that both games were on tv and the rugby was on prior to that.

Myth. According to people it's either 20k, 25k, 30k, 35k, 40k, 45k....... There's no set number. Costs go up and down depending on the number and they plan accordingly. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13692 - 11/02/2018 12:56:59 2075748 Link 2 |
I didn't know that but that's fair enough, and all joking aside it would be easier stay at home in this weather and watch it on the telly, although as they say you can't beat being there.
