Consistently in the 6,500 to 7,000 range, I expect that that will probably be the norm for this season, with perhaps only the Victory and Sydney derby breaking the mould.

And fuck do i need my elbow !

Brisbane v Adelaide 6549
Smurfs v Newcastle 6943
City v Fraudsters 7019

7k At AAMI park 

6k in Brisbane 

not sure about Sydney 

also w league in Sydney got about 2k which is pretty good 

Looks like you had plenty of elbow room tonight mate?

Interesting.  Actually,  now  that  you  mention  it...

Which interprets that no one goes anymore.

Do you attend any games ? I'm off out to Kogarah just now to enjoy this evenings match.

@ SutherlandBear

If  you  read  my  last  few  posts,  you  will  see  that  my  comments   were   actually  about   the  old  FFA   getting   crowds   of  30,000+   and  40,000+   up  to  their  last  season

Because all you do is moan about how many people DON'T go to matches !!

@ SutherlandBear

Why do  you   ask ?

How many games do you actually go to ?

So what?   The  old  FFA  got  crowds   of  30,000+   and   40,000+   right  up  to  their  last  season

Wasn't that common, and it was pre-COVID

@ charlied

Funny   how   the  old  FFA   had  no  problems getting  attendances  of  30,000+  and  40,000+   right  up  to  their  last  season...

Yes but what we are seeing now is the results of long term mismanagement.
One thing is certain - if metrics don't improve significantly, there will be a no next TV deal.
The A League is on its final warning. 

Remember  how  when  the   old   FFA   was   running  the  league   it  was  getting   crowds  of   30,000+  and 40,000+   right   up  to  its  last  season ?

1300 is pretty good for The w league 

I can guarantee that AFL and NRL will have no such problems.

So little energy or interest around this season. I had not expected this. 

The ALW women's game was delayed due to lightning so the weather did have an effect, albeit a small one. Still 400 more than for the a Saturday game against the Mariners. 
Some of the RBB travelled to the game on a Friday Night and made an atmosphere. Don't recall the same vibe for Mariners game. There was a bit ore for the FFA Cup game at WIN on Wednesday.

They should have lined up an NPL side for the opener might have got a few more people through the turnstiles....

Attendance 
ALW Nix v WS 1309
ALM Nix v WS 1948

Maybe because Wollongong are playing at their home ground 

More people at the FFA Cup game in Wollongong v Mariners than at the Phoenix v Mariners game at the same venue.

No, just venting we just heading into a second season were teams are playing outside their areas, it just sucks hopefully we can get back to normal next season.

You really have to ask ?

Brisbane wet... Lucky to see 5k

Why are they playing this match at penrith when you have Marconi or Sydney United grounds near by?

Friday night in Wollongong is a hard sell, even if it the first double-header of the season with the A-League Women
As for the Bullsh1tters (aka Macarthur), their poorly run club could hire 6 coaches to shuttle all of their plastics to Penrith for 50-odd minute bus trip on the recently widened Northern Rd (dual carriage way for most of the way). And Penrith Panthers don't like cutting the grass to a proper football (round ball) length so the pitch will be quite spongy so the ball won't travel well. Maybe some CCM fans will travel with about a 90 minute car trip from Gosford

WP v WSW - 1,500 (WSW fan base fickle as always and won't go).
BR v AU - 9,000 (8,000-9,000 seems to be their go).
MCFC v WU - 8,500 (Slightly higher than their usual numbers).
SFC v Jets - 7,500 (more shit weather forecast and we know how Sydney people are scared of rain).
MFC v CCM - 2,500 (I'm not very familiar with Penrith, but Google Maps tells me its a little over 50km from Campbelltown).
MVFC v PG - 9,500 (Sturridge factor or not, 6:45pm Sunday fucking sucks).
