Campaign attendance was bad, and MS numbers are generally down, because it isn't exciting any more. It needs a total shake-up. You know the majority of the yank players, even the pro's, don't even know when the events are on, or who wins them after the fact, they even turn the pages when they reach reports in the magazines, and can't be bothered to read, because they are so disinterested. Quite simply, it already 'doesn't matter'; and pretty soon the yanks will be saying " the what series?" Partly because they won't remember it, and partly because they are remedial, and have no attention span. They can't even spell Millen..... milennu.....well they can't spell anyway

No offence meant by this but according to your location I have to ask, were you actually at CC ?? Or are you basing your comments off of others comments ?

The weather friday and saturday was appalling, and didn't pickup until sunday which is always going to have an effect on attendance. Hell, I went wearing my jacket with an umbrella in my goodies bag on sunday. There seemed to plenty of people there. Ok it wasn't Manchester United VS Arsenal in a Premier Division Cup final at Wembley, but it certainly wasn't desolate. It was constantly busy from what I saw, and plenty of people flitting between the trade area and various fields. The CPL stands were all packed for the semi's and finals.

Echo, I don't know if Missy was there or not (I didn't see him) but even if he wasn't, he is more than qualified to comment because for the most part he didn't have to be there to make those comments.
He is well aware of the events like Toulouse of not so long ago that literally buzzed with excitement and he is also well aware of the present lack of Yank teams.
He understands that connection better than most.

Instead of knocking him, I would try to learn from him and heed his warning because he is 100% on the money whether you went to the tourney or what, or even whether you like it or not ....he's damn right.
