Says the evolved hipster that has literally told me to go fuck myself over and over again for the last few hours.... Eating at McDonalds is NOT eating at a cafe disptick.... 
I get that you are having a shitty day but no need to be a rude c#nt... Try and come up with a more expressive way to insult somebody, its good for you're mental health mate.... lighten the fuck up.

Oh I see, so Aleague support is more the "Ultra" style, not the "Casual" scene of ol blighty.... Not sure what the wikipedia history lesson is trying to prove but all Im trying to say is you have to have a culture where the love of the club is the be all and end all of a fans existence before you worry about people not attending because there arent enough colourful flags and singing... Those pioneering Hajduk Split crazies, would drink beer in the curva, rain hail or shine even if there where only 5 of them together ... do you think they would EVER say, "were not going to the match today, crowds are down and not enough streamers" Active support is a consequence of football culture NOT the propegator of it... FFS 

Sorry, I thought active support was a consequence of tribalism?

Now you're saying it IS a consequence football culture, which literally the opposite of your previous argument that it wasn't part of the sport itself.

You really are all over the place.

Do hipster Aleague dudes even eat chips? How do you go getting your "farm to table" organic, artisinal,, macrobiotic airfried sweet potatoe slivers at Mickey Ds or KFC?

Sorry Sydney, you are a hundred percent correct although I would have assumed a person of your intelligence would have followed the context of my comment, let me correct it for you:
"FOOTBALL active support is a consequence of football culture NOT the propagator of it" Just like basketball, active support is a consequence of basketball culture in each area, hence why fans support differently say in Serbia than they do in NBA BUT it is ALL a consequence of tribalism and club culture.... Without tribalism and club culture an NFL fan doesn't paint his whole body and spend all day outside the stadium eating hotdogs and drinking beer, or a NBA fan spend thousands upon thousands every year just to  get courtside season tickets at the garden or a Turkish basketball fan lights flares and firecrackers and chants with his brothers in the stands for the whole game.... It is the love of the club that makes them do this NOT the love of the sport....

Aren't NFL teams franchises?

Looks like you've just unwittingly admitted tribalism is possible for both franchises and traditional clubs.

Absolutely tribalism is possible for franchises... People dedicate their whole lives to collecting Coca Cola memorabilia or buying every single marketing item Jack Daniels has ever released for example... People are tribal over their club, their school, their suburb, their chosen religion shit even the brand of cereal they eat in the morning. There is no accounting for passion and tribalism.... Its not a logical thing ... what about my statement don't you agree with?

It's not your statement per se, rather your previous assertion that tribalism is not possible for A-League fans because the ownership structure.

Ownership structure may be one of the reasons for lack of tribalism sure... not the only one mind you. Now focus your mental gymnastics on explaining how "tribal" you feel support and attendances for the Aleague franchises is at the moment as compared to other Australian sporting clubs.

No covid hesitancy in Albury.
I only put this up because it's in stark relief to what we are experiencing in the A-League at the moment.
7,000 turned up to watch a practice game yesterday between the Swans and Giants, in a town about half the size of Launceston.

So if nothing else that proves that crowds aren't necessary to run a comp. Let's go NSD.

Would laugh my arse off if big matches in the NSD, if it ever gets going, pull more than matches in the A league.

And it will happen.

How many people attend the big derbies in the NPL, e.g. South Melbourne-Heidelberg, Sydney Utd-Sydney Olympic, etc.? At best a couple of thousand, even before Covid. I don't think the same match-ups in a putative NSD will get that much fans along to them (I am adamantly for an NSD, however).

And if you look around the world you will pretty consistently see the biggest crowds in the second division are higher than the smallest crowds in the top division. There's nothing inherently embarrassing about it.

A-League will probably return to around 10k average crowds once they have a season that isn't stuffed around by Covid. An NSD will be fortunate to average 2000 per game when it starts. So I wouldn't gloat so much.

If it averaged 2000 I'd count that as a success. If they got 6000 to a derby match that'd be unreal.

If the NSD is played in summer the crowds will be bigger. 

The npl in its current form isn’t built for crowds, half the league plays on the same night which dilutes the attendances, you have the state leagues and juniors on at the same time of the year. I know so many South fans who simply can’t get to the games because they have junior commitments with their kids or they’re involved at a local club. 

I think even Victory felt the pinch the other week going up against a stack of Friday night npl games, what was it 6k or something against McArthur?
