this forum will turn to shit real quick if we have a plague of redditors joining. Fuck them.

so with Notting Forrest through to the semis, where they will play Villa. Could they potentially win the Europa League, qualify for the Champions League & be relegated from the Premier League. wow.

well, good luck to them then, they'll end up in park football in no time.

I'm not sure what the solutions are tbh. There doesn't seem to be enough money or support from above for any solutions.

we only started to do that crowd counting clicker system this year. last year it was basically off online sales and not taking into consideration gate takings and when under 16s is free.

and on another side note and this is no dig at the WSW. I live in southwest Sydney, the "heart land" of WSW if you wanna call it that. People are just not interested in the WSW anymore, they feel bored of the A-League, they stopped attending. Whereas i have seen a spike in NPL football, im not...

it wasnt 900 you think you know more about my club then i do. lol funny everyone measures us cause of 3 home games in the championship, however in the last decade we have been steady, with the odd spike up and down. but now we are on the up and it's continuing to grow, 4k two weeks ago, 800+...

16k isnt just a reflection on WSW. there is two teams on the pitch, two sets of supporters in the crowd, plus neutrals. in the Championship APIA away there was just over 4k, Sydney United fans made up around 1500 of that crowd. We had the lowest average attendance for good reason. By one of...

i was just about to say the bigger shock is port melbourne. whats doing there? funds have dried up?

yeah i guess that was the exception. 9 players out and replacing them with kids didnt help. However, we talk our cup football seriously, its why we've won the waratah cup the most out of any club, (8 times)

thats more because of the money and tv deals. exciting doesnt neccessarily mean better, they got raped in europe this year

Here is context and facts. So after 20 years of the A-league, you have dwindling crowds, derbies from 60k to 40k to 16k. (mind you, inflated crowd numbers) and your comparison is semi-professional clubs in the NPL, like it's some achievement?! Oh my. You are mainstream, you compete with NRL...

i think they see it as a burden and financial headaches Our club always wants to win everything they enter. I prefer that mentality over fielding 20s in cup competitions for the sake of $$$ or tired legs.

The EPL fan boys will still say its the best league in da world. lol

Confirmed on the Syndey Olympic Socials. Michael Melito is appointed interim head coach. David is leaving the ship before it sinks.

its interesting, a lot of the 'bigger' clubs will field an experienced strong side, whereas a lot of these 'smaller' clubs throw in their 20s for games like this. we only rested 1 player in a 3 day turn around last week.

Newcastle in the 90s and 00s were massive despite there lack of success. Competing for EPL titles, Champions League, so when they got relegated it was a huge deal. Not to mention there fan base is massive, probably the best in England.

did the EPL get another 5 spots for next year's champions league? lol

Would spurs being relegated be bigger than when newcastle went down over a decade ago?
