Over the years, pretty easy to appreciate some great non Cat players.
Can always wish , or imagine what they'd be like in hoops.
In all honesty, could easily do several teams

Did anyone go to the Victory Glory game at Geelong on Fri pm?
Just wondering how the round ball game stacked up at our stadium.
23000 fans is a great result.
I think MV will get a crowd anywhere, but on that night is really good.
Adds to the argument or debate about a Geelong based A-League team?

A ticketing glitch is slowing entry into Simonds Stadium tonight for Victory v Perth game, but it looks like the problem has now been sorted.
Long winding lines as far as the eye can see
few issues.

Have experienced that at least once a year at Simmonds.

I went when Victory played that Asian champions league qualifier early last year. It was fine for the game the only issue being we had seats on the 2nd row and due to the sponsors signs if the ball was on our side of the pitch you sometimes lost it... I noticed on TV the other night the crowd started about 4 rows back so I'm guessing the learnt from the first time, albeit the crowd wasn't fantastic.
Looked a great crowd the other night particularly considering it was 38 degrees at kick off, heard people complaining about lining up but I've had to line up a few times a year to get in to our games so I'm not sure that can be headed

I'm a City member, but Victory regularly get 25k crowds. And when they get noisy, unbelievable atmosphere. Geelong fans at Simmonds could learn something from them, evidently, noise - wise, not behaviour- wise.Christensen would have made a decent soccer player.
23,000 spectators? That sounds like an incredible result. Almost sounds like a football type crowd but soccer

I think that with the seating the atmosphere is totally different to the old days at K'park.
Maybe the restrictions on the grog also has something to do with the rather sedate crowds.
I remember the old days when people were jam packed in the outer and the atmosphere was great. Even if it was difficult for us blokes who are built a little closer to the ground to see.

Victory have actually averaged 26,000+ this season.
Sydney 19,000+.
The rest, nada.

Do you know what the Wanderers have averaged Fred? I'm interested given how poor they have been this season, also because its their first flat year and Sydney fans are notoriously fickle

From where to where?!You've just gone up in my estimation mate.
Vdubs , any idea on what the profit type numbers are for the soccer? Is 23,000 at Geelong a strong profit , better than the rectangular park in melb for eg.
