Increase the capacity of the new Football stadium in Melbourne to at least 30,000 seats!
- Target:
- Victorian State Government
- Region:
- Australia
The State Government of Victoria has commited to build a 20,000 seat rectangular stadium for use by Melbourne Victory Football Club & Melbourne Storm Rugby League Club.
Melbourne Victory FC is already getting crowds well above this figure & with Football participation rates at junior level the highest of any sport & the growing popularity of the game in Australia, this size stadium is too small & allows no room for growth at the elite level & will leave many fans unable to watch live Football in Melbourne & greater demand for seats could push the price out of reach for your average fan.
Football fans in Australia have for too long be sold out by politicians & the media trying to protect boutique sports & stifle the growth of our game.
We, the undersigned, call on the State Government of Victoria to increase the seating capacity of the soon to be built rectangular stadium in the Olympic Park precinct to at least 30,000 in order to sufficiently cater for the Football public of Melbourne.
