Must have been a smaller than usual Dubs crowd because the other 3 counties all had a good few thousand there. Dubs might have brought their usual 20k and didn't get the bump to 30-35k for a final that they usually would. I'd say the Leinster match was definitely a factor but a big reason is titles are coming too easy for the Dubs. It would have been a major shock if Galway had pulled off the win. Only Mayo or possibly Kerry based on tradition would worry Dublin fans about a possible defeat these days so only natural that crowds will taper off a bit. Fair play to Galway, what a great showing, hopefully they can become a team to really threaten the Dubs over the coming year. dahayeser (Cork) - Posts: 337 - 03/04/2018 10:55:26 2090573 Link 0 |

Are you serious - Armagh outnumbered the rest, yes we had a poorer support than normal but you are misled

Wicklow v Offaly & Carlow v Louth - 4,350 Some amount to empty seats in Castlebar for a game that was supposedly a sellout for weeks. I wonder what the story was there. dahayeser (Cork) - Posts: 337 - 14/05/2018 10:21:17 2100394 Link 0 |

Some crowd in Castlebar to be fair for a provincial q/f with Ed Sheeran in Salthill twice over tge weekend. Obviously big home support but bigger Galway support than I expected.

You were very optimistic there SlipperyDodger, especially about the Leinster Hurling. I though those figures would be a bit bigger myself to be fair. Here are the official attendances for the weekend. Hurling Cork Clare 24,490 Limerick Tipp 20,423 Kilkenny Offaly 6,976 Wexford Dublin 10,248 Football Tipp Waterford 1,658 Fermanagh Armagh 8,421 Clare Limerick 2,304 Tyrone Monaghan 15,029 dahayeser (Cork) - Posts: 337 - 21/05/2018 09:36:25 2102533 Link 0 |

18000 in Galway for the first leinster championship game against Kilkenny. That's a poor crowd in all fairness. RTE were saying Pearse stadium was 'packed'. It didn't looked packed and it wasn't obviously. PeggyShippen (Limerick) - Posts: 300 - 28/05/2018 11:47:26 2104661 Link 0 |
Poor enough crowds for most of the football games. Champions League probably affected the Saturday fixtures and I know Tipp and Cork are both poorly supported in the football (the Hurling the next day would also have had a bearing) but 3 and a half thousand for a provincial semi final between 2 large counties is shocking. decky (Roscommon) - Posts: 384 - 28/05/2018 12:55:43 2104708 Link 0 |
