+x+x+x+x+xHard to how the A league recovers. I expect NRL and AFL attendances to be close to the normal. When a business has fallen like the A league has, it I'd very very difficult go come back. The football had been horrible today mediocre ands the public appear to haven given up on the competition. I agree with those calling for the radical change. Nothing short off a rebrand and rebuild will do. I've come to around to three view that's pro/rel is an absolute necessity as part of that. First things first they need to get the active fans back on board and do everything they can to embrace tifos and the atmosphere that makes our game unique to any other code in Aust. I know it’s hard in a nanny state society but at least it will bring fun back Not sure many Aussies know but this is NOT unique to football.... The Lowys just told you all it was 17 years ago to get you all on as consumers. Check out some Euro and South American Basketball, Volleyball, even Handball ffs.... its called club culture.. You poor fools thought active support was part of the sport instead or realising it was an expression of club culture and tribalism...... The Ultra style of support has its origins in football, making its way to Europe following trip by Hadjuk Split to South America and the fans adopting the intense support style, with chants, banners flags etc. It may have bled into other sports in the century that has followed (often through the football team being part of a wider "sports club" that has basketball/handball teams too), but it is football culture first and foremost and it wouldn't exist if not for football. 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.

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....

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.

Wow..... maybe some of these "clubs" need to spend a season in the NPL to work on getting some supporters back to their matches?

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.

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.

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.

Western vs city got about 8k Thanks I saw that now. Keepup is weirdly inconsistent on when they release those stats.

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?
