"It's hard to ignore the statistics Bosnich presents,"

No it's not, there was obviously going to be a drop off post membership push thanks to people who bought 5 passes last year, buying 1 this year as multiple memberships aren't cheap.

I'm surprised how little it dropped off to be honest.

"That's no problem if they're bringing something to the table, but they have not brought anything to the table so far as I'm concerned."

Well what are you concerned with Bosnich?  In a tournament where one team wasn't paying their [players, and went past critical deadlines for payments without paying, even with threats from the FFA, knowing the FFA couldn't do shark because they are already running a club which they cant sell due to a lack of buyers, a stable A League club is something massive at the table.

Added to that is variety, something a south Melbourne club likely wont bring (you can play in Melbourne, Melbourne or Melbourne, so much variety, don't forget the Sydney clubs).

To say "they have not brought anything to the table so far as I'm concerned" is just ignorance.  If he said they dont bring enough to the table, that's a different kettle of fish, I'd still disagree but nothing is horse shark.

I really need to ignore him, we still have 3 seasons to enjoy at a bare minimum.
