Happy to see you talking about crowds Mr Boon. I doubt you will next week.


So you guys are trying to tell me that the wallpapering over cracks move to Adelaide Oval isnt working 5 years after spending $600 mill of tax payers money.


What a surprise. :roll: :roll:


Your hatred of PAFC has clouded your judgement. AO investment has paid back in spades. Sport, entertainment, tourism and businesses have all benefited. You'd realise this if you weren't so salty :butthead:

Is this true?

Serious question. I'm wondering if any studies have been done on it.

I know crowds have increased, but what'd we spend, something like $600m?

So why isn’t pafc financially better off then ??

With China and Adelaide Oval allegedly raking in the $$$$ surely you’d have paid off some debt and or reported $millions in profits.



Crowds have dropped from 44k in the 1st year to 34k for PAFC. 10000 fans simply can’t be bothered anymore after 5 years.

It sounds like history repeating itself to me.

Absolutely.
Both Adelaide clubs bucked the AFL trend and had less members this year which would be a concern.
Seems that fans are voting with their feet which is fair enough

I consider sitting back downing Woodstock whilst blaming everyone else for ones own situation sadder.

I'm not sure that those words could actually go together, dim sims are ok but you'd struggle to find one that's good, let alone "yummy".

Steamed are way better too I might add.
