Agree with your thoughts re kickoff times for next Saturday. That will of course have been set by the TV contract. And yes, feel for Glory in that, but not their call.
Live TV is an issue - perhaps delayed coverage in host cities, as happens in the US, might help.
But in general, the marketing of the A-League leaves a lot to be desired, and I doubt the FFA has any idea of local football and the implications that has on who might go to an A-League game.
There is still a disconnect that needs a lot of work to rectify.
I think it is a key factor Paul, many people I know said the same. I know many who say parking is an issue, especially with children.

Fans are going backwards, not the game or club. Live TV is killing us. As I was ringing around to get a crew to join me yesterday. Many were telling me they were concerned about the weather yesterday and preferred to watch on TV? What the...? We have the third hottest team in land and a gun striker the likes of we have not seen since Mori and Despo and people are still unhappy.
