The atmosphere is so bad. It's astounding to me that the league seems to care so little for its fans. Like why are there no supporters clubs? Why have we had two lockouts with next to nothing for the fans coming out of them? I look at the Premiership and things those clubs do for their fans and its miles ahead of what we have here. The just take it for granted that we should build them arenas and fill it up 41 times a season.

I think the number one reason why there are no supporters clubs is that the people who would want to be a part of said supporters clubs are priced out of the game. As a result, those who are actually at the Dome look at anyone trying to make noise with disdain.
And from my personal experience in running a supporters group for another club in this city, people tend to look at you like you're a drunken ass hole who must not have a job or contribute to society in any way. That gets discouraging after a while.
