Just reading this on official site. All the comments bar a few so far are for him. 15,000 turned up apparently. Someone who was there said they shut the venue when 10,000 were in and the rest were watching on big screens. That's quite a turnout.
Sorry if this has been posted before but didn't see it.

The Irish are very patriotic; hence why the talentless turd has made it this far!

Were the British Army commanded to round up 15,000 people from their homes to go and see Eoghan on behalf of Field Marshall Simon Cowell......at gunpoint?

There didn't look to be anywhere near 1,000 on his video let alone 15,000 - I think someone on the comments page is telling a few porkies there

From the VT it would appear that JLS had the most.

Haha. I just got a really funny image of Eoghan standing on stage singing his heart out (well in his mind he is) with 15,000 people standing behind him in identical robes. Then a cut to the audience and there's his mum, dad clapping with his elderly nan waving an 'EOGHAN 2 WIN' flag and whooping...

What a weird mind I have...

Iwent to it and 6-8,000 was there.

Probably the 7,000 figure that was reported on local radio stations would be more accurate.


Thats not including the thousand or so who were at the entrance/exit to the venue were he performed.

Here is a few videos on youtube from his day back home

.

Eóghan arriving behind the venue. A few people got taken to hospital at the time this was recorded.This is maybe 70 meters away from the entrance, which was one of any four that they could have used.All the others were even more crowded.

The people at this entrance would not have been in the crowd when he sang as they had closed off the both parts of the two venues (the adjoining one with the giant screens).
