So we all agree that crowds are lower than we want them to be. What next?

We wait around for the new TV deal, close Phoenix HQ doors then get on with our lives apparently? 

Well going on the 12.5 number we'd be down to 5 clubs.

Who will play each other 8 times to ensure there are 300 games*.






*Warning numbers may be grossly exgarrated 


Last for a while again ... now take off your shoes and start counting...

A-League ... 6 games per round [assume 12 teams] 33 rounds is 198 games plus finals is 206..

ACL matches at least 24..

Australia Cup matches 32

Senior national games, Socceroo's 9, Matilda's 10, Under 23 side 4 ... 23

 W-League 12 matches..

So lets summarise ..

A-League  206, ACL 24, Australia Cup 32, National teams 23, W-League 12 ... about 300 give or take ... 


Remember the ACL and AC matches could be increased as could the W-League... 


It's great when reason, logic and facts are used other than gut feel rants attempting to have a go at someone...""warning writing may be greatly exaggerated""" ... BTW corrected your spelling on exaggerated ...
