Its a few years old now but around 4k is probably close to it.
That's the Derry City and Strabane council area. Not even remotely the same numbers as the city, and a large number not even in the same county.

What, the GAA heartlands of Newbuildings? Or Artigarvan with a population of about 200. There are almost 5k playing Gaelic football in the council area- shave off about 1k outside of the city. It isn't as if the areas have massive populations and Strabane would be primarily a soccer town as well.
I can't believe you've attempted to double down on that to be honest.

Just to clarify you think there are 4x more playing gaelic football in Derry City than in Strabane, Newtonstewart, Castlederg, Owen Roes, Glenelly, Clann na nGael, Ardmore, Slaughtmanus, Claudy, Craigbane and half of Banagher combined?

Fair enough my Maths is out. Way out.

Maybe you included Muff in your calculation as a Derry City club?
