From the globalist files, Russia is pursuing the same things as the west and the Russians aren’t having it. The weaselly angle of using Fan ID to get adoption of digital IDs is failing, and it’s costing their sports teams dearly. Kudos to the Russians for standing up to the technocratic elites.
FC Rostov averaged 30,000 spectators in 2018/19; now the Russian football club struggles to fill 7,000 seats.
Spartak Moscow’s Otkritie Bank Arena has a capacity 45,000 people (although maximum capacity was reduced by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to 15,000); less than 4,300 fans showed up for Spartak’s first game of the 2022/23 season.
A grand total of 207 people watched the March 11 match between FC Ural Yekaterinburg and Torpedo Moscow—the second-worst attendance in the history of the Russian Premier League (RPL).
On average, attendance at RPL matches has decreased by four times compared to the pre-COVID 2019/20 season.
Russian football clubs are now paying people to attend their matches, according to RT.com.
