A-league attendances

[FeedTheBrox]

victory have sold just over 13k tickets so far for Saturday nights game against Sydney

That's disappointing if true, but not unexpected.

Just over 15k for MV and 11k something for Auckland.

Auckland are likely going to fall off a cliff when they finally have a poor season.

MV we've spoken about at length, think they're just suffering from the general lack of interest in the A league in Melbourne these days, very hard fix.

The corresponding finals fixture in 2009/10 was only 18,453, not that much of a difference.

Looking back, historically finals week one has not been greatly supported.

The corresponding finals fixture in 09/10 was over 2 legs and the 1st leg in Melbourne was played on a Thursday night.

People were saying that the Elimination Finals aren't on the memberships so they're saving their pennies for a later final. Funny thing, they never got that later final.

That is what all teams season ticket holders say.

What has the day got to do with it, it is a normal sporting night in Victoria that is well attended by the majority of sports.

A Saturday night should be bigger than a school weeknight.

92,000 Aussie rules fans, say differently.

I remember that match against Wellington. We were in an almost empty pub, Agincourt Hotel, and as soon as Wellington went up 2-0, the bartender switched the game to the NRL. In the 5 minutes we spent arguing before going to the pub across the road, Sydney had equalised.

I was a regular at the pub for about 5 years and never went back. Absolute shithole

Sorry to get nasty, but many people in your position thought that by getting rid of the wog clubs, that bloke running the pub would suddenly become a soccer fan! How does it feel to know that these wog clubs you disenfranchised could have been your friend. But you went for the soccer haters instead.

 

[Toebash]

Haha geez have you cracked open a bottle of red and started bashing away at the keyboard Son of Sam? You're on the warpath today!

You seem to have a fascination with ELO (Whatever the fuck that is), do you also like XG, as well. You guys seem too fixed on nonsense and not the actual game itself. No wonder football is boring as shite these days.

Remember the Americans develop their sporting talent through the college system, for all their sports.

I thought he was drunk waffling about the 1970's band Electric Light Orchestra (also known as ELO).

Sutho himself brought up ELO not long ago banging on stats this stats that I entirely agree with but to his stat credit he luvs posting up attendance stats week in week out and it’s history lol

Those are the ones I hate, like someone has just re-invented the wheel. In fact, they have sent football backwards. It has become a bore with athletes, rather than footballers.
