Different culture in Aus. Particularly in the AFL states where many people are members of the AFL clubs but don't attend matches. It's just a tradition that you have a membership. Richmond for example last season had 100k members but an average home crowd of 61K.
That's why the Marconi Club has (had) bigger membership than Sydney FC, as it was about the social club first and foremost regardless of game attendances.
