+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x[quote]+x[quote]+x[quote]+x[quote]+x[quote]Nice goal well played - no one there MSC oh is the crowd empty? Weird And the Victorians laugh at Western United’s crowds. 500-600 max. Are there any Sydney clubs left in the Australia cup so we can compare? hahahahahahahaha Mate, Ill play along just for shits and giggles, it hailed 3 hours before kickoff in Melbourne, rained steadily (and at times heavily) from 1 hour before KO to the start of second half of ET two clubs that have played each other 4 times this season already It was a Wednesday for some bizarre reason (I thought quarters, semis and finals where "promised" to be weekend games) 1,700 was a half decent crowd, could have been 4k in better circumstances... Think small and that is what you will end up as. No wonder the NST is a dead duck. All the crowds in the cup are quite poor, in ALL states. Just a question for you. What kind of crowds would SMH attract if they were in the top division. Honestly I think we'd get a really good crowd for the first year IF we played well and we weren't playing in the dregs of winter, I don't think we have any trouble attracting casuals and or nostalgia merchants but its getting people to stick around during winter witch is incredibly hard. Fair enough, but the top division is played mainly in summer. Going by what Mono says, I think anything short of 10,000 would be really disappointing, considering games against the three other Melbourne teams would boost it. Turn it up you old shitstirrer you.... ahahahah it will take at LEAST 2 seasons to get up to the 10k mark. lol But back in the real world, if your question is sincere, I agree with Sth of the Yarra, first season would have see some decent crowds (who know numbers but considering NPL finals at Lakeside used to draw 4-6 thousand a few years ago I would think this would be the "pass mark"?) Sure some of the lesser matches would be pretty small crowds but I would bet that both us and Preston will draw good crowds against each other, both home and away, against the old NSL rivals like Marconi, Syd Olympic and Syd United, possibly even Wolves and APIA... Dont underestimate the power of nostalgia... Its the second and third season that is the worry at this stage... if the match day experience isnt improved, if access to the league isnt easy on TV/Streaming, if the actual football is lacklustre... if, if, if... then perhaps the crowds wont come back a second or third season.... All this is moot anyway Sutho, your franchises have won the war mate, its not happening... The big bad scary "effniks" will never get the access they deserve to better themselves... its dead before it even started. The "concept" will get brought up again in a about a decade by which stage there wont be anyone around that even cares anymore.... Turn it up you old shitstirrer you.... ahahahah it will take at LEAST 2 seasons to get up to the 10k mark. lol You really don't do irony, do you ? BTW, they are, Australia's franchises, not mine . Ive told you before I let the wife do the irony (I wonder if NINJA has an iron so I can support Australian football, anniversary is coming up and Im stumped for a gift.) Dont you support one of the franchises? One of the effnik ones too from memory? Jewish or something arent they? Like Spurs... do they chant "Yid Army" like their cousins overseas perhaps? You need to leave the comedy to the funny guys. FWIW, I would say that Sydney’s support is 95% Anglo, dont see many scooby doo’s TBF. Not anymore, maybe the Cove is but the right north side has a massive Brazillian and Colombian cohort, probably a good 1000ish. Same with the Ukrainians and Russians in the Eastern side, granted there used to be more but still a strong amount. I seen more Gremio jerseys at games than Del Piero ones, sign of the times. No one should be wearing a Del Piero jersey in 2024. I have only seen the odd Gremio strip, but not loads, and i can see pretty much around the whole stadium from cove heights. Why not? Mine still fits me. You should be wearing if for the logo on the front, not 'just' the name on the back. I would understand that for a pre pubescent teen, not a grown adult, or a teenager for that matter. You Aussies don’t get it. Update and buy a new strip every season , and support your club. Retro is good , every now and then. But hey, at least they're in new kits I suppose back to the original quote by ol mate, I always thought its a badge of honour having/wearing a old kit that many would wish for. Its is mate, don't let some foreigner tell you what you can and can't wear... Someone has to bring you convicts into the 21st Century. The days of stubbies, flip flops and vests are gone. convicts???? I think your arguing against the wrong crowd here. Pretty sure Nic's and LFC's ancestors where never chained to a boat on the trip down to Australia... [/quote] You are all Australians at the end of the day. ( AKA, convicts ) [/quote] Can you take your shite banter off the Australian cup thread pleeeease [/quote]Just for you, i will. [/quote]Thx 👍 [/quote] He just called you a convict and you are thanking him????? wow.

+xEveryone is fixated on a potential MV v SM final for obvious reasons but its not moving the dial for me. My dream final is South v Adelaide. Our last nsl match was against them 20 years ago, it would be fitting if we could play them again 2 decades on with a national trophy on the line. Plus we would get to keep home ground advantage and 12,000 crammed into Lakeside supporting South would be a great atmosphere. With all due respect and not a personal dig - this is a lot of BS :D
South would love nothing more than to knock off MV in the Australian Cup final. If you asked 100 South fans who'd they want to beat in a final - I reckon you'd get probably 100 who'd agree. if you had those two options to play in a final, you'd only choose Adelaide if you were concerned of it being one-sided.

Fair.... although Adelaide would be a pretty acceptable "second choice"

+x+x+x+xEveryone is fixated on a potential MV v SM final for obvious reasons but its not moving the dial for me. My dream final is South v Adelaide. Our last nsl match was against them 20 years ago, it would be fitting if we could play them again 2 decades on with a national trophy on the line. Plus we would get to keep home ground advantage and 12,000 crammed into Lakeside supporting South would be a great atmosphere. With all due respect and not a personal dig - this is a lot of BS :D
South would love nothing more than to knock off MV in the Australian Cup final. If you asked 100 South fans who'd they want to beat in a final - I reckon you'd get probably 100 who'd agree. if you had those two options to play in a final, you'd only choose Adelaide if you were concerned of it being one-sided. Fair.... although Adelaide would be a pretty acceptable "second choice" Id even be going for south against them! +x+x+x1621 tickets sold in just over a 3 hour period to 5.30pm this afternoon (went on sale at 2pm today) when i purchased my ticket for Melbourne Victory v Adelaide United at AAMI Park on Saturday Night. Ticket prices are very fair for this game Good to hear, hope it gets a good crowd I want to take my kids to the south game, but timing is too tight w

Yer not a bad strike through traffic. Only watched the highlights looked could have gone either way GK’s pulling off saves. MSC best of luck to SMH later today I’ll be on a long flight so I’ll be hanging to find out the result or might be able to check through wifi here up in the sky.
Love Football

It was pretty obvious MV would win at the end in that game.
Adelaide just did not take their chances and it just felt like MV would get a goal from one of theirs.
You know this because ghow many times we've been on the receiving end.

Going into the game, I thought we’d get pumped given we have 9 players out and had no strikers and only one CB available so to be the better side was really pleasing.
Just didn’t take our chances and having the likes of Luka or Archie available would’ve made a huge difference.
Hopefully next year FA doesn’t schedule games at the same time as youth internationals so the best players can play and teams that play youth don’t get punished for doing so.

The better team won imho. At no point did it look like MV would lose that match. For the last 30 minutes, Adelaide were out of ideas and breath.

You couldn’t tell who the A League team was out there. Gap between NPL and AL has narrowed big time. NPL standard is pretty much the same as it ever was however the AL has plummeted significantly. Fancy needing a dodgy penalty to beat a bunch of hack part timers. MacArthur looked truly awful. Imagine paying good money to watch that slop every week. Someone mentioned to me at the ground that they even made the finals last season lol.

Shit way to exit the cup. Well done to the South boys though. 39 games this season and an unforgettable cup run.

I think Macarthur will likely be down near the bottom and the final standing will depend on how well Kurto plays. They lost a few players from last year as well. The centre backs looked incredibly uncomfortable and for that reason i think the result goes the other way if we had Sawyer. I think Victory might dish out a pretty heavy beating in the final.
