Not a bad. Definitely a summer venue so should do better when the weather picks up. |

I thought Shamrock Rovers (as the worlds biggest club) could muster more than 4500 home fans. Not as big as they think

2 in a row and we won it in Tallaght

Sport For Business - with an unusal angle on attendances
Watching Irish SoccerPosted on March 6, 2017 Shamrock Rovers’ biggest attendance since 2011 turned out for their first home game of the season against Bohemians on Friday night. The SSE Airtricity League often gets criticised for small crowds but everything is relative. Take the respective populations of the Republic of Ireland and England into account and you see a different picture. We have multiplied this weekend’s attendance at the Premier League games and multiplied them by a factor of 11.7 to reflect the different populations and this is where each of the 12 teams in the SSE Airticity Premier League compares to their English colleagues. We realise it doesn’t really mean much but population does matter and for the Irish clubs to feature so favourably on a comparative League table is worth bearing in mind before leaping to criticism.

That may be the most pointless thing I have ever seen and a very bizarre way of thinking. Back in reality, appalling crowd from City, first home game of the season for league runner's-up and cup winners and the ground is half empty.

Half the county was flooded and the game was in doubt all day , good crowd in those circumstances with many bigger crowds to come from the best supported team in the league

Half the county? I think that would be classified as biblical. The weather had an effect but given people still made it to the game from 30 and 40 miles away I think it is appalling, as is the case with most attendances.

If the biggest derby in Irish football in an area with a population of around a million and a people can't sell out a 6k stadium at the start of the season then something is wrong. I'm not having a dig at you here Bronze, but I think that problem is expectations are so low. Everywhere there are comments calling it a good attendance when anything less than a full house should be seen as a disaster.

Dundalk 1 in every 7.97 people attended our first home game Cork 1 in every 35.75 people attended their first home game But you keep telling yourself Cork have the best support, For a City your size, you should easily be getting more than 5000 every week

I think 5000 is conservative but you are correct. Cheers to Bitored for the figures.

The thing is that we had that support when we were in the first division , That 1 in every 7.97 is nothing other than a band waggon statistic Enjoy the good days while ye have them

I think that's a fair statement. Its the same as the old "its a good LOI ground", which essentially means it wouldn't be up to standard in the majority of leagues around Europe but expectations are so low there`s no such thing as stadia requirements. Every club in the PD should be averaging a minimum of 1k every week but we`re a long way from that.

Call it a bandwagon statistic all you like, the issue isn't with Dundalk and nor should it be, Cork airport is being kept open by fellas going to Liverpool, Manchester and London, the interest in football in Ireland is one of the highest in Europe and yet the ground sells out a handful of times a decade. That means that what ever is being done isn't good enough.
Bitored; It just appears that way to me, my first instinct when I saw the crowd was why didn't it sell-out? Most fans of Shamrock seemed to be delighted to have 'a big crowd', hopefully the people responsible didn't.

Lads out of interest why do ye think that attendances have been so low in recent year?
With the standard of football getting better every year one would think that attendances would increase, especially the exposure the league got with Dundalks European run. On top of this, what do you think clubs could be doing in order to increase attendances each week?
