Not great, but makes sense. Mid-week, kids back in school, teams have settled in to their positions in the table a bit (ie poor teams are poor), weather is changing. So, suspect we'll be seeing more games like this. That's fine, it is what it is this year.

The other reasons, sure. But the game you quoted for York got them from 5th to 4th. So out of playoffs to into playoffs. That's not a reason for the York game.

The more I think about it, I see a lot of positives about this Pay What You Want match. You increase your database of names of people who express at least a bit of interest in your product, so your sa

Yeah, I was making more of a blanket comment on why some attendances might go down. Some games will still matter, but we're getting to the stage where more don't.

It drives me crazy that this is always the most active CPL thread. It seems there's more interest here in attendance than there is in the football itself

You are right.  I'm worried this league won't last.  I'm here to hopefully see some good news!  I suspect that most people on here are here for the same reasons.

I’m not sure I agree. The hardcore soccer fans are sometimes the hardest to win over. I think it’s been a very slow adoption period from national team fans, but from what I’ve seen the fans in the stadium are far more knowledgeable this season than in 2019.

I find Canadians pretty snobby about sports in general.  If it's not a major league or junior hockey they turn their noses up at it.  

I have so many friends who are bigger soccer fans than me but wouldn't be caught dead watching CPL or even MLS.

He's going to either point out to empty spots on the screen or come up with a "they gave tickets away" theories

No he;ll leave this one alone...brag up the numbers probably because of the MLS factor.  Which is obvious, fans want to see a big club, but it will come off with the usual back handed compliment that is really a not so subtle slam.  Its an art......

He does like his back handed compliments. Creepy, like he's using PUA techniques to get into the CPL's pants. 😅

No number so far for Ottawa vs Cavalry:

Or for Forge vs Pacific:

https://canpl.ca/matchcentre/bksny6dxmf724sqdloqb8cqok/highlights

The latter looks like it might be better than usual from the highlights.

Edit: on Reddit for Ottawa game
