Still can't find a positive post then.

Sow me a positive post you have made

Prove me wrong.

Not really - just never saw a positive post about anything from you.

So do you follow any team - ALM or NPL - or are you just a death rider

Not an excuse but Australia can be in the middle of a drought and early season CCM games will inevitably be wet (including washouts) - with the vast majority of seats not undercover. Probably more of a problem was the Sunday 6pm timeslot. A lot of Sydney FC and WSW fans will travel for a...

Their first goal conceded in 6 rounds

Their defence will take them a long way.

They have a game in hand against 4 clubs - same as 8 other clubs. They have had draws against teams in 7th and 12th and wins against 9th, 10th, 11th and 13th. I've not seen anything to say that they will be there at the end of the season. Having not played against any of the top 6 you would...

Jury still out on Victory. One win against a top 6 team (City). a draw against 7th and wins against 8th, 10th, 12th and 13th.

Don't worry the FA have had their hands all over Brisbane for years. They were about to go broke years ago before Lyall Gorman who had already stopped the sale of CCMFC to the Bakrie family did the deal at a pre-season game at Knox Grammar in the seats in front of me.

Tassie is being pushed by Tony Pignata and did seem to be getting Govt - state and federal support. The problem seems to be deciding on the right site for a NTC (National Training Centre) program with a 10,000 rectangular show pitch. This was probably earlier this year but they were positioning...

I still think they will get to 16. If Canberra can' t make it this year I can see a Tasmanian team pushed by Pignata, a Gold Coast or ipswich team, if Canberra can't make it a South Island NZ team out of the new Christchurch Stadium

Also the non -alignment with the East Asian nations calendar. An Australia team will never win the top prize in Asia again. When Adelaide did well and WSW won the first rounds were in February and they were well into their season. Now we start in pre-season and have played 6 games before we have...

That's the way I remember. The socials in the week before were talking up a pitch invasion. I believe it was a City home game so they should have had extra security. I see four faults here. 1) Melb Victory would have know what was coming if I did on the Central Coast. They should have...

After 32 games only 3 have less than 4,000, with 5 games greater 20000. TBH though that shouldn't be the measure. If a second division team can survive with crowds of 3-4K then that is all that is needed. Anything on top is gravy. Equally, if ALM teams can't make money on current crowds then...

He does - but a big club in a big league means a lot of competition. You would thing if he was in Holland or Belgium somewhere he would be turning heads and could make his reputation before he went to a bigger European club.

I suppose the point is that it doesn't affect the product long term. However, big teams that have big owners should be looking at owning their own infrastructure. Ultimately it will lower costs and provide additional match day revenue streams while also providing an infrastructure that can...

The majority of professional football clubs around the world lose money don't they?
