10)Wellington Phoenix: 1,867 (4,185)
Can anyone explain why CCM now have less members ? Happened a lot last season as well, no idea. it is interesting other than the top 3 teams on the list and perth no other club is really close to their target getting to 4 weeks out from kick off. Obviously roar is a complete disaster. Last year had a really big push for membership, this year there has been nothing. Amazing they cant even afford some social media push which is $100 a week is a big spend.

It does seem that the Roar fans have taken the title of "deflection kings" from WSW of late.

Quote:MELBOURNE: The owners of three-times A-League champions Brisbane Roar have only days to clear their debts or risk losing control of the financially-stricken club.
Roar, owned by the heavily indebted Bakrie Group, an Indonesian mining and telecoms conglomerate, have been under siege from creditors and behind on player payments.
The owners met with Football Federation Australia chief executive David Gallop last month and were told to recapitalise the club urgently.
"At this stage the current owners have indicated they want to clear the debts," Gallop told reporters in Melbourne on Wednesday.
"They've got quite a short period of time to get that done. A matter of days, not weeks.
"We would certainly like to see all the debts cleared as quickly as possible and make sure that the club's in the right shape for the start of the A-League."
The opening round of the A-League starts Oct. 8.
It was unclear whether the FFA had set the owners a deadline but Gallop last month threatened them with the withdrawal of their A-League licence if the debts were not cleared quickly.
Roar have been the target of legal action from a number of different parties, with the Queensland Rugby Union filing a court action in July to have the club wound up over alleged unpaid rent at Ballymore, their former training base.
Former coach Paul Mulvey, who was sacked six months after leading the team to the 2014 A-League championship, is also suing the club for deceit and misleading conduct regarding alleged contractual problems.
Australia's national players' association said on Wednesday that Roar was up to date with wages but still owed players more than a year's benefits, including pensions, medical expenses and appearance fees.
The Bakrie Group, the first foreign owners to hold a majority stake in an A-League club, took over Roar in 2011 after the previous owners handed back the licence to the FFA after burning through millions of dollars.

Ahh, another David Gallop deadline - and if the Bakries don't meet this one he'll stamp his foot down only with his angry face on this time; that should work Mr. Gallop, that should work !!

They'll clear the debts the day of the deadline, just like with the ARU court case. They're trying to spend as little money as possible before get this deal over the line.
Wtf is taking them so long anyway? Are they still asking for $10million or something equally stupid?

Its a bit rich paying 5-10 million for something that going to cost you 2 million a year and has massive depts to pay. I think if there is any buyer the bakeries are asking to much (trying to save face) while the buyer is going wipe the debts and im not paying that for a loss making business.

Show us one statement that confirms Gallop provided a deadline date? This is the closest he's come yet with legal considerations uppermost in the strategy. Gold Coast bitters :lol:

The big issue will be Suncorp, what happens if they refuse to let them use the ground.
The irony will be do that the FFA takes over and the Bakries won;t pay off Suncorp anyway or the other creditors.
