Can somebody tell me what is going on ?

I watched the Saints v Gers cup game live on my comp here in New Zealand last sunday morning and i was shocked to see such a small crowd for what i thought for sure would be a sell out in our new and very small ground.

To see only around 4000 at the groud stunned me can anyone tell me why this was so?

What I would give to be at those games its hard to get anything from way down here and to see such a poor showing was disheartening Im sure it was for the team C'mon Buds get in behind the Saints.

P.S...............I have just noticed a similar thread and am certainly not aiming my comment at folk in financial difficulty........so please dont mis-interpret
