    It is not soccer. It is Football. The real one that is.

    Wonder how this graph works exactly - much of the super will overlap with ASX equities

    I remember Man U playing in Melbourne to crowd that dwarfed the crowds in Europe. They can't all be hooligans from Northern UK?

    Love Melbourne. Love Sport!!

    Dwarfed the crowds in Europe? Let’s dig a little deeper.

    1. Could you give me an example of this crowd “dwarfing” a European (a whole continent to choose from). Let’s say Old Trafford or Nou Camp?
    2. Ironically the attraction was a UK football team
    3. What’s the average attendance at a Melbourne or any A-League Game for that matter (noting that the Man Utd game at MCG was an exhibition game)

    Love sport, love going to sporting events, pity Australians who haven’t experienced sporting event outside of Australia

    Are u a pom?

    Anyway 100,000 at the G is bigger than crowds in the UK. We could work on our hooliganism though. We should send a couple of hundred qlders to beat up some Vic's.

    Welsh crowds at the rugby would be fun.

    Irish crowds at the curling. That would be interesting.

    Hurling is a Gaelic sport and attracts big crowds at County level. The Irish aren’t known Curlers

    My mistake. Apparently curling was invented by the scots!! I did mean hurling.
