Considering the ticketing was electronic for once and kids under 16 werent counted I would say it would have been closer to 5,000 on the night but ... who gives a shit anyway... it was the biggest attendance of the round and WILL be next round too... 

Kids under 16 were definately scanned in. They had to have a ticket.

Hume always get the best cup draws!

Rumour is South v Olympic fc will be played on Saturday the 24th.

Incorrect rumour it won't be Saturday August 24th there is NPLW already scheduled at Lakeside Stadium that day til 5pm.

Nothing stopping it from a being a double header. It would likely be a night game. The women play before the men frequently.

I actually do support SFC. I buy the gear, have 2 season books and attend about 95% of home matches.

You only cheer on from your couch, a team from a foreign country.

Awww haha I know from the couch I’m way out in front that’s for sure in comparison 😀 only lol

You are entitled to your misguided opinion. 
No matter what you and others think, SFC are still the most successful team in Australian national league history.

You both have a chip on your shoulder. Your refusal to acknowledge the top flight in your own country, tells me that. And then the plastic LFC fans.::P:P:P

Closer to 5,000? Where were they hiding? You realise the grandstand has less than 3000 seats? And it was at best 3/4 full. So you're telling me double the amount of people in the stand were at the game? Hahaha. 

I think its 3,500 tee hee but I get your point.... hahaha I dont know man, I didnt count the bloody tickets.... who cares? 

There was a bunch of toffs in the corporate rooms/cocktail function thing and a whole bunch of people on the concourse.... meh whatever really.

Kids under 16 were definately scanned in. They had to have a ticket.

My nephew from the South U14s and a couple of his mates told me they didnt have to get a ticket.... I didnt take my kids on Tuesday so I just assumed all the kids didnt... all good. 4,200 is still a decent crowd I reckon.

Sorry sutho been busy on leave.
Quoting he was an ol mate.
Got nothing to do with his brief stint in the us.
I finished saying imo due to Eddie’s dna and roots he wouldn’t have approved of a franchise league per say starting up here.
Any or most Ol salts of the past would look at it that way.

Well, that is only your opinion, you have no idea how he would have thought.

You are not allowed to say that someone is a friend ?

FWIW, I have plenty friends who played in the NSL, and very few of them are anti A league in the same way you and others are on here.
