Crowd Watch Thread 2009

[Chook Norris]

someone remind me why Souths aren't playing at SFS anymore?

 

[Timmah]

Who knows :lol:

 

[Perth Red]

because they are skint and get more money from ANZ? Crowds are comparable for them at both stadiums so I guess the fans are wide spread.

Souths fans are everywhere but im pretty sure souths revealed a few years ago that there were more souths members in western sydney then in the district. Being one of those members I love going to games at ANZ compared to the trip to the SFS. Not to mention how easy it is to get out of the stadium parking compared with the SFS. I probably wouldnt be a season ticket holder if we still played at the SFS.

Manly/Newcastle @ Bluetongue - 15, 837

decent crowds, good to see a reasonable crowd at the CC hopefully that helps in the push to get the mighty bears back

What a load of rubbish 15.8k... was at least 17k, and I've been to that ground enough to know. Only one empty bay, the rest of the ground was chockers.

Average crowd for that match. Was hoping for a 20k sell-out with a Knights, Manly and CC fans filling up the ground.

Still, Brookie wouldn't have attracted much more.

 

[Timmah]

Manly fans in particular would've found it difficult to get to the ground from the Northern Beaches.

 

[Perth Red]

Given a large %of the crowd were Manly fans, and unlikely to support a Bears team how many were actualy fans from the CC who would turn out to see a CC Bears team I wonder?

 

[Brutus]

The guys on the radio kept suggesting there were a lot of Manly fans at the ground.

 

[Perth Red]

Watching it on TV there were certainly lots of fans in Manly colours and Manly flags.

ps Ground does look great and I hope MES is brought up to that standard soon.

 

[Apey]

yep definitely a lot of Manly supporters there, probably 60/40 or 70/30... judging by where I was sitting anyway.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

looks like the ANZ crowd is pushing 30k or am I getting carried away

 

[dgsfan]

Looks a great crowd. Probably 26,000.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

be nice if it beats swans crowd tonight

 

[Radioactive Man]

Why were free tickets given away ? Not complaining, just curious.

 

[Cumberland Throw]

bandaged bear cup i suppose... free tickets to hospital workers accross sydney

 

[Smith Machine]

Over 26K at Skilled park for the local derby well done. I was at the game and i swear that the capacity of the place is 27.5K but there were more than a thousand seats available. Great atmosphere at skilled! They are going to be a powerhouse in a few years to come with all the work going into that club!

31,664 @ ANZ
