I just heard that there was an A-League game yesterday that only got 1,600 people through the gates. Gold Coast V Melb Heart.
That is pretty piss poor. It lead me to start thinking about the worst ever crowd at Brookie for a Manly or even a Nthn beagles game.

I can't think of a crowd figure less than 4000 even in hurricane conditions. I could be wrong but what do you all reckon is the lowest crowd figure Manly have had at home?
 
Played the Cowboys on a rainy Sat arvo one year and got around 2000 people. Cant remeber the year or exact figure but I was there and it was piss poor.
 
I think we played souths(?) one day in pretty bad conditions.Hadlee and co were actually confident they could count the crowd.I think thaty little rat field was with us at the time.
 
The following link has various stats on Brookie crowds -

http://stats.rleague.com/rl/crowds/brookvale_vn.html#hi

The worst ever was 1785 (Manly v Canterbury 19-Jul-1964), quite a few lowish numbers in the 50s and 60s.

The lowest in the last 20 years is 2506 (Manly v Gold Coast 11-May-1997).
 
The A league gets 1600 fans through the gate, and Australia bid for the world cup.  Idiots.

Disagree.  A League crowd numbers meant zilch when it came to the vote.  A world cup in this country would have been huge and all sports would have benefited from it in the long run.

DSM5, classic. Thumbs up for that. The A League is a waste of time. Soccer will forever be political and divided.

That Gold Coast game was during the Super League war on a wet arvo and the commentators claimed that there was barely a few hundred there. At one point they counted the crowd. Inflated crowd figures were all the go that year and the truth was the first casualty. I was at Cliffy's (supposed) last game against the Cowboys and if there was a thousand there that day I would be surprised, no matter what the figures said.

Yeah and if I want to go to see a game of divers, I'd rather go see a West Tigers match instead.
 
Soccer is the most boring activity on the planet (I Call it an activiety because it can't be classified as a sport).

Australia didn't get the world cup because of the media snub in this country for soccer.
Crap - we didn't get the World Cup because FIFA is basically beholden to more dollars from whoever will give it and is about as Democratic as Zimbabwe!!!
