I wanted Southend to stay in league 2,

Colchester to be relegated to league 2,

2 close towns for me to attend if we went up,

As it happened

Nothing happened

So we win the league next season and those 2 get relegated.

The attendance at the 2014 MLS Cup  (the equivalent of the Super Bowl) was only 27,000. One of the teams was LA Galaxy as well!

Equivalent of the Super Bowl in the sense of it being the last game in the MLS season. Even the high school American Football teams get more than some MLS teams. The college ones can get more than 100,000!

Wasn't there 50,000 at Kaka's first game for Orlando?

Missed out an "although" in the above post - over 62,000 at Orlando vs NYC. It is getting more popular over there as they realise that football is far superior to the sports they've convinced themselves are entertaining for many years and also less dangerous for their kids to play than american football. It'll never properly overtake NFL for popularity there though.

Attendances are going up every year. They are looking quite respectable now.

They don't have many really big clubs but it's only a matter of time,

The US Football season is so short with so few games and all on one day, there's plenty of room in the calendar for soccer.

They don't have big clubs because they don't have the continental competition as we do here. Even Real Madrid, Man Utd and AC Milan started as amateurs once upon a time. I hope it does grow there because I've got two yank half brothers who will be getting a bit of stick should we draw them in a World Cup again.
