Is there any reason to attend home games?

[Southerntakeover]

We're one official home game into the 2024 season. Our season is over.

I have two memberships to attend our home games. I do not want them. No one seems to these days. I can't give tickets away. Can anyone think of any reason any a person would attend a game played by this group of pathetic losers for the rest of the year?

If so, can you let me know what it is?

To scare old people so they stop attending the games and giving the club money.

Haven't both the games at Adelaide Oval this year been sell-outs?

Predict the crowd for essendon

Predict the crowd for essendon

No idea. Last time we had a home crowd under 35k was 2022 so I'd assume more than 35k.

I guess because you like watching Crows games and are hoping to see an improved performance? I mean I'm not saying you should attend, so that's really up to you.

AO games are usually well attended regardless of team performance. For example they didn't drop off much between 2017 when the team was flying and 2019 when the team was fairly bad.

Home games are certain losses

Why hope to see improved performance?

This loser club might as well lose. Finishing 10th does nothing.

Finishing 10th is the top of the mountain. After being such amazing world beaters last season, it is understandable that the team is struggling to find the motivation to go around again.

Considering the actual football has been ****ing turgid, I'd say little. I'm not even going to be giving up my mornings over summer (UK) to watch that drivel now.

Very similar. Previously a long term member, but haven’t been to a home game since 2017 PF.

Get drunk and kick on afterwards

That’s all.

Or skip the game and go straight to the kick on.

You can catch a free bus into the city, don't attend the match,have a nice evening on the piss at a pub in the city and then catch a free bus home listening to our supporters whinging.

Just my opinion of beyond India food. I had BI in North Adelaide once and it was disgusting.

You can't let rip at the ground without some PC thugs mewling to security about a naughty word hurting their ears. You can't even really be that vocal sans naughty words without the limpets getting upset either.

That's why A League is better to attend. You can let rip, even at the players and officals, and it is likely they'll hear you too!

Although said tongue in cheek, I hate foul mouthed people around me. Good humour ok.
Our old seats at footy park, we had a lovely older couple behind us for years. They moved on and we had the foulest couple of younger people get their seats. We asked them to calm down a few times but never dobbed them in. We just gave up our tickets.
