- Unfortunate crowd in the mid -week game in Melbourne
- Supporters in agreed the football code is in a terrible narrow
Discontent fans have questioned the relevance of the A-League after an insignificant crowd appeared on Wednesday night to see Melbourne City Tackle to the Newcastle Jets in Aami Park.
While the players were canceled outside the field after only 14 minutes for more than an hour due to the rays in the area, the crash finally completed in front of an almost empty stadium.
The visiting team won 1-0 thanks to a strike by Lachie Rose, but the gloomy images in the coverage transmitted in Paramount told the story.

The mid-week accessory in AAMI Park was a poor announcement for the A-League in conformity (in the photo, the captain of the city of Melbourne Aziz Behich)
Former soccer journalist Ray Gatt spoke for many followers when he tweeted in X:
'This is a shocking aspect for the A-League. 'Ok, is a mid -week game, so people have work and children have school but, Caramba … also, why do you play tonight?
On the same Tweet, Gatt published four images during the party that showed the lack of atmosphere, and although the official crowd had not yet been confirmed at the time of publication, a figure greater than 3000 would surprise.
“I saw Mafs instead of going to the game,” said a fan in response to Gatt's publication.
“I didn't even know I was on until my phone made a release,” said another.

Another declared bluntly that A-League never learns and mid-week games are a “dead loss”
A third revealed that they did not even know that the game was underway until he received a notification on his phone at the beginning
A third weighed with: 'When will A-League learn? The mid -week games are a dead loss.
It also occurs after the respected commentator Simon Hill confirmed earlier this week that the weekly show that co-elbited with the former soccer striker Alex Brosque in Sen Radio in Sydney will be taken out of the waves.
“Some news for those who have asked … Sently, the global game will not return, at least for now,” Hill confirmed in X.
'I think the program has not been able to ensure sponsors. “This is where (football) is in Australia, unfortunately.”
The poor crowds have pursued the A -League throughout the season: the worst assistance was on January 29, when the Western United of John Aloisi was the host of the sailors of the central coast before only 2476 spectators.
It is true that Western United has provided a possible plan to follow smaller A-League clubs, with the land capacity in Ironbark Fields that serve approximately 5000 fans.
And as many will attest, a stadium half full exceeds an almost vacant AAMI park or a Suncorp stadium, home from the Brisbane roar, which has also struggled to get fans to pass through the doors this campaign.
