These are the likes the respective official Facebook pages have. I'm pretty impressed with Parra's numbers. Only behind clubs that are alone in their City, state or country!!! We are 2nd in NSW and I find that impressive but not surprising. If we had more success in the last 30 years we would have been up there with South's numbers who are also 40 odd years older than us and have won the most Premierships. We built our fan base between 76-86 and since then I scratch my head how we have managed to hold onto it with so much failure.
This is the power Parra has!!! It's massive fan base.

The club has probably paid someone to press like for a job.
I'm surprised how far down the Panthers are. Their population must be as big if not bigger than Parra but very few likes. Maybe most can't read and write and steal computers, phones etc rather than own one! Bit of a oxymoron if you take drugs AND own a computer or phone I suppose, there're usually the first things hocked.
That's actually pretty similar to the Morgan fanbase rankings as well. (Although I think St George figures higher on their list, but I feel they're a club with a declining base - ie more older fans, fewer new generation so that might explain why they fall lower on Facebook.
Piss poor - get online you bastards and press the button :)
