    I still can't get over how ridiculous that crest is, or how silly their leopard print kits were.

    Gangwon will play on this stadium their next 4 home games.



    Winter Olympics will be held here in 2018

    Daegu have changed their coach two rounds ago. They won the first game after his resignation, but lost the last one against the same Gangwon.

    Nice to see Bucheon at 2nd place and only 8 points behind Ansan.

    Does anyone know what is going to happen if Ansan Mugunghwa wins the Challenge with the foundation of so-called Ansan Citizen FC??

    I know the Mugunghwa will be re-located to Asan next season.

    Attendances are really low in the Challenge. Any suggestions for how they can be improved?

    This is often discussed in circles of Korean football and extends to first division football.

    On the short run, I can't think of anything (at least not on top of my head). Lowering ticket prices doesn't seem to do anything, as many matches are very cheap or free. Apparently, FC Seoul hold many pre-post match hangouts, drawing a substantial crowd.

    On the long run, interest in spectating professional football and following the game must increase. But I guess that's the end, I don't know a potential means to achieve that.

    set a minimum standard and at the beginning of a new season deduct points to clubs who failed to meet it

    if you cant get 3000 people to watch your games then perhaps its time for you to disband

    Interesting.. but wouldn't that fold a lot of existing clubs? And it might potentially ward off a new club from being established.

    Well I think the discourse was on ways the league can attract larger attendance. Punishing clubs for failing to meet a quota might just lead them to disband altogether if they find expanding attendance more costly. Then there will be almost no clubs left in the league.

    Maybe the priority should be somehow getting the clubs to be more financially independent. Maybe then the front offices would want to seriously think about enlarging revenue and doing all they can to increase their brand.
