Sydney FC to host A-League game at Brookvale

[Mitch]

Interesting to see Sydney FC hosting an upcoming A-League fixture at Brookvale. More high profile use can only be someone beneficial to the potential of any upgrade.

Everybody loves Lottoland

If they could commit 2 games per season along with the waratahs, that would go a long way to getting a decent amount of money to upgrade.

Sydney F(u)C(k)

Or Sydney UK

The more Lottoland is used the more the reason for redevelopment

Being from Adelaide, I agree hehehe.

Seriously though, Sydney FC playing a home game at Brookvale can only be a good thing. Hopefully the game against Melbourne being a success, plus hopefully more games in the future, means a better chance of funding for upgrades to the ground. And upgrades are what is needed to keep the NRL from making us play home games somewhere else in Sydney.

This is good to see.
The more codes that use the ground, the better the claims of an upgrade will be.
I know it's only a one off, but as a Sydney FC member, I'll be glad to see them play at Brookie.

Get them in there permanently if we can. Or get Union to play their games there. You guys are right. The more the ground is used by other codes, the more likely the upgrade will get a boost.

I wouldn't have thought the playing surface at Brookie would suit soccer, has it been upgraded recently?

Tanks for that.

Jeez Sydney FC playing there might make it worth even less. A League is horrible.

 

[Captain Moondog]

I'd like to see us play them one half of soccer, one half of league, league played first. I reckon after the first half they'd be down a few players.

So much for the surface being crook...

Go to the cove & say that i dare you.Unfortunately our rugby league side won’t be having the success the boys in blue have had the last 2 years.FORZA SYDNEY FC.

Sydney fc’s getting more supporters at there games more than our league side at the moment.

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

This a step in the right direction. Instead of competing with other sports we should be embracing them.

If we get a few games of Rugby a couple of A league games and the regular Eagles stuff we would be much more of a chance to get funding.

The people of the northern beaches need better, all these beautiful beaches to go to during the day just aren’t enough. I could only spend 3 hours at Longy today frolicking in the crystal clear blue water before I got bored.

Good news... Waratahs are playing Round 1 of their 2019 Super Rugby season at Brookvale following the success of their game there in 2018 (even though they lost):

It is optimistic but I hope our local/state/federal government representatives are paying attention.
