That's worse than the semi pro surburban AFL league in Adelaide. Gold Coast really is a sporting graveyard.
The Heart are moving in the right direction, but as the median shows, a lot of their numbers are based on being the home team for 2 of the 3 Melbourne derby matches in both seasons. Even then, the median is higher this season. It will be interesting what happens next season when, presumably, they will only have 1 of the 3 derby matches.

The Victory continue their reign as the A-League team with the most numerous support and have returned to above 20k average attendance after taking a fall below last season. They are, however, far below their height, but, much like the league as a whole, they are moving in the right direction.

All I have to say is that the Jets have had an amazing turnaround since Tinkler took over the team. It is a shame that he could have had a chat with fellow mining magnate Clive Palmer about how to properly run an A-League club. Hopefully Tinkler and A-League work out their differences and he sticks around because the team seems to be going in a good direction.

The Glory, sadly, were one of the few teams that didn't improve their numbers this season. However, they were also one of the few teams that didn't have an upswing in attendance during the "golden seasons' between 2006 and 2009.

What's sad about Sydney is just how good they were attendance wise in the first few seasons. They've really fallen off since then and I'm not sure if the addition of the West Sydney team next season is going to help them any.

And the final team is Wellington. the Phoenix didn't have that bad of a season, they've turned around from the poor season in 2010/11, but are still quite a bit off their best attended season in 2007/2008. Unfortunately, a lot of that is based on the 20k they pulled in their regional match, which is their best attended game so far. They also had their poorest attended game this season.
