The Liga Sagres struck new low this week as only 514 people showed up for Estrela Amadora’s game with Rio Ave.
If a figure like that needs putting into perspective, the lowest ever attendance in England was 469, which happened at a game between Thames and Luton Town in 1930.
Although it is somewhat amusing to imagine such a paltry number of people at a top flight game in Western Europe, it’s really quite tragic in that it highlights the appalling shabbiness of the Liga Sagres.
