Exactly my point, I'm sure lots of people have that inclination towards soccer, never mind low-level professional soccer, but fill up Hellard, actually have a strong supporters group (Good work shermanator!) and suddenly it's a fun cheap activity in a location that is really easy to access for 1/3 of the city. It's too bad there can't be a great 2000 seat soccer specific stadium going up anywhere, but its really the people that make it a good atmosphere, and I've been to Hellard when it has been filled up for Bantam football and it's fun.
