If we find a way though Auckland, the one positive is that we won't have to travel for the GF.

what happens if WU get wound up on Wednesday? Does CFG just get the forfeit?

Surely that won't happen while a buyout is in progress? It would be in noone's interests.

WU and City - hopefully 8k.

Victory v Auckland will only get around 10k tops i reckon. There crowds have been piss poor for such a big club.

Probably not worth caring anymore the crowd and tv ratings are shite

Are casuals and Victory fans going to attend?

Not sure if you're trying to wind Vucks up or not. The reason why our numbers have dropped off has been explained many times on this forum.

And there is another dynamic this week with the NT leadership unable to attend and whether or not that will have any impact.

Playing around with the Ticketek site suggests early sales are heading towards Category A/B areas. Not so much the active areas.

$40 for an active ticket (with 10% off for members) is a fair enough price. I don't think 20,000 is a realistic possibility. But I expect to beat the 16,000 we got against the Nix in the corresponding game 12 months ago (which was also mothers day).

Some promotion would come in handy.

I read someone on X suggest the APL should do a ticket package for all 3 games at AAMI Park this week. Great idea tbh.

I'm thinking of going to both city vs WU games but don't wanna overspend

Camp out in the stadium over the week, that way you can save on a double ticket

You seem so determined to see this happening, all of those people who lose their jobs.

Mate this shouldnt have happened 7 years ago!!!!!! It was a con job then and it is a con job now.... I only feel sorry for the poor, unknowing handful of fans who jumped on this bandwagon.... the rest of them can go and get stuffed. "creating" a football club out of thin air all to get a property deal over the line, whats next an evil oil rich nation buying football clubs all over the globe so people can forget they behead rape victims who have abortions???

The world is changing (not for the better, IMO), looks like you and i are getting left behind.

On your "rape victims", Even if you are raped in Ireland, you are not allowed an abortion, although they don't kill you. And the Irish are so called, Christians.

Doesnt mean we have to like it..... or just go silently into the night... YOU grew up with the kind of football ecosystem WE never got to experience here in this country.... I just don't think it is right.
