Great crowd at the Sydney derby ......

Not so great at the Foxtel derby ... wonder if they will announce 3K for that?

Oh well at least Harry Sawyer made the thumbnail photo and got 1/2 a match....

That net looks empty at Macarthur




What were their goals when the got the licence? And how's their progress?
Evidently SFA.

Macarthur are your A-League team because of Sawyer? Yay!

Only for the 10-15 mins that he plays for them per match, rest of the time I follow* Roarcelona

Nice work.

The owners must be absolutely bleeding money with no prospect of improvement. Surely they will have no option but to pull the plug soon?

 

[Frankly Speaking]

Whatever the Bulls are doing in their community, it sure as hell isn't working.

Does anyone know if their ticket prices are still ludicrous?

 

[Frankly Speaking]

That has to be the biggest derby crowd for a couple of years, surely? Great number

And, happily, a great game.

Love to hear from some of their fans, but i suppose no many there.

Tickets are on par (or cheaper) than most other clubs. $29 for Adult GA. However the problem is there isn't that much GA available. They probably need to mimic the way Adelaide have zoned Coopers as it's a similar sized venue. Tickets are slightly higher $36 GA / $39 GA Premium, however there are a lot more areas available for those tickets.

Do you have any thoughts as to why they are so dismally failing to attract support?

you''ll have to speak loudly , its a bit hard to hear anything over the cowbells...

TBH I think they are too close to WSW. They would have already drawn from that area. Wolves would have been a much better choice.

That said - they supposedly have a very good stadium deal and security costs for such small crowds would be cheap as well. I'm not sure if they get a percentage of game day food and drink sales - they seem to be council run - not one of the venue companies so they may actually be making money on game days.

 

[melbcityguy]

They fought with their active so they either sit off camera or don't show up. Stupid club that deserves to be mocked

They bump the ticket prices against us in previous fixtures to $50-60

I am sure they only pay $1 per year for the stadium rental, or something equally as absurd.

Yeah that's been the case. But I think I heard somewhere that it's expired or due to expire... maybe it's a 10 year thing.

Serious question, do South Melbourne Lakers declare the right attendance, or is their the dodgy turnstile used to help with players " extras/ bonuses " .
