Limerick's base support, plus a few Longfordians.
Around about 2,000 at a push in Finn Park. 100-150 up from Dundalk.
I'd have thought it would be a bit higher but I guess given the front few rows of the south stand were closed off that sounds right. Hopefully more again for the Dundalk game.

Where were the rest of them hiding?
you're right -2000 in attendance at a BIG push.
Not much more the club could have done to help the Q's. 3 different sale points for home supporters around the ground and they were available to buy online.
If we win on Monday there is probably a good chance the east stand will open to home supporters against Dundalk.
1,878 official ticket count at Finn Park. Kids go free with adult and those aren't counted, estimated 200-250 in that.
That's what I got from Finn Harps this morning.
I reckon it's more than that but that's splitting hairs.
Good win though. Think we'll be okay this year. Nothing I've seen from UCD or Harps suggest we'll be in trouble and we should push on. Rovers will be a huge test on Monday. Nervous already.
Good crowds again last night but are Cork and Rovers fans a bit disappointed? The two best supported clubs in the league and neither could get 5,000 at their first home games since October?
I saw a picture of the Derry crowd in Tallaght and it was very poor so there was probably 4,400 Rovers fans there but there was a huge Waterford crowd down in Cork adding to the numbers, are Cork fans giving up on their team already?
I think most would have been a bit disappointed alright. The media backlash about the incident at the Pat's game likely had an impact. Local radio chat show went on about it for 2 days.
Add to that the lack of buzz due to the cut in budget etc.
Great crowd from Waterford. Disappointing that theres such a drop from this time last year.
After last night though, it will be a lot worse next week.
Biggest crowd last season was 5200 against bohs.
