I think they're trying to compare this season to another season which wasn't impacted by covid. Attendance is up over 2021 and if we don't find some information that tells a bad news story some people just won't be satisfied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't disagree more. In that people are less afraid or restricted from attending evens? Absolutely. That a portion of the population is poorer and an even greater part of the population has learned to live without live events? Not a chance. COVID lingers on. It'll be a while. Here's to back to normal sooner rather than later. jonovision, Aird25, RJB and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say you can pretty much take these numbers to the bank CPL just needs to stay on the same track. Keep going, be positive put butts in seats for big games and build those connections with people.

It's not like it was, but I personally know people that attended games regularly in 2019 but aren't this season still due to their risk of catching Covid. I know even more that aren't soccer fans, but certainly haven't returned to 'normal' activities. I think the effects of covid linger for some, if not many. However there are others that are super eager to get out and do things. Bison44, red card and jonovision 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US tracking data says it has gone from just below 30% from summer 20 to to just above 60% this May for sports fans. I would say Canada is a bit lower. So, not there yet.

Aird25 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) Many workers have barely even returned to the office. Or they've done so in a reduced capacity. At my job we regularly have face to face work cancelled due to covid. Sometimes it can feel like it's over, but other times it smacks you in the face still. Even with mild symptoms it can still hurt you socially and financially to catch covid.

SpursFlu Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 It would be nice to see supporters on both sides in Ottawa. I find their stadium looks great and sounds great when watching on TV. Shout out to the people of Ottawa, they seem to be growing something pretty solid there johnyb and m-g-williams 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Had a talk with someone at work who lives in Gatineau. We were talking about sports and she said her kid love soccer - told her about Atletico across the river. She had never heard of it but was excited to go check it out. Next commissioner's challenge is to get the league more mainstream. Same thing happens whenever I talk CPL in North York... York United? Where? CP...what? - Never heard of it ☹️ Nello 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
