[QUOTE="Kiwiwomble, post: 994981, member: 45355"] i guess my point is more consideration seems to be given the tv audiences overseas than the actual local support and if the local support keeps dwindling then long term the team will struggle to justify sponsorship etc out of curiosity, approx what percent of super games in South Africa are kick off between 1pm and 3pm? because the vast majority of games in Nz start at 530 or 730 its hard to get the casual fans or fans with kids to night games where you can get them to earlier ones. and i dont even just mean to the actual ground, i dont have kids so i'll ask my mates (even my brother) if they want to meet at the pub to watch and universally it seem 7pm is bath time with bed time at 730pm....so they're like "i might be able to make the second half"...which they only do half the time...where day games? easy [/QUOTE]
