Crowd last night was 3,703 and CCM licence is safe?
I hope so, it absolutely should be.
I hate it when people question our A-League licence for things like poor crowds, and I think it's disgusting that a lot of Phoenix fans seem to question other clubs remaining in the league. We should not support kicking clubs out for 'metrics' whether it's us or anyone else. A lot of fans from other clubs showed solidarity with us yet people on here seem willing to throw any other club under the bus to try save us.
I think you'd find very, very few Nix fans who seriously think the Mariners should be thrown under the bus. Comments on YF highlighting other clubs' substandard metrics are in general a frustrated reaction to what is seen as a massively prejudiced policy against the Nix.
If you asked most Nix fans if they think CCM should have their licence revoked because of poor results and poor metrics I am sure they would say no, of course not, but why is FFA singling us out when other clubs have been doing just as badly, if not worse?
Yes, pretty much agree. Though I have seen some comments that are at least verging on an outright attack on whether some other clubs should be in the league at all. No club should get kicked out because of 'metrics' in the way that has been threatened against us.
Situation frustrating for us, hopefully does get sorted soon. Obviously being a New Zealand club we will always to some extent be viewed differently than other clubs, but the last few years have been bullshark.
