I know I'll get slammed for saying this but I actually think it's a good thing. What's to say it there won't be 50,000+ Eels fans there? Plus think of the extra revenues. Plus it shows the Eels actually give a cuss about their fans. And as Osbourne says, he could hardly tell the Drags to do it and then not do it themselves. I know it's a crap ground to watch footy at but It's not like we're moving out there permanently or anything (well at least I hope we're not). Plus, think of the riots on the trains on the way home when the Drags lose. Or is that the Dogs?
I see that point... I also dont want to be like the bunnies ,the dogs ,the roosters and the tigers,playing our home games at a soul less home which only comes alive when 50,000 turn up.,..and sometimes even then the place is quiet
