Sheikh explains the decline in public attendance in the Roshin League
عن انخفاض الحضور الجماهيري
محمد الشيخ: لم يتم تطوير التجربة العائلية بالملاعب ولا يوجد تذاكر موسمية وهناك نقل مفاجئ للمباريات .. نحتاج الاحترافية بتسويق المباريات في #دوري_روشن #أكشن_مع_وليد

In a related context, the Saudi sports critic, Mohammed al-Sheikh, spoke about the reasons for the decline in public attendance this season in the Roshen League, saying this was due to the lack of development of the family experience in Saudi stadiums.
In his remarks on Action with Waleed, Sheikh continued: “There is also no season tickets and there is a sudden transfer of matches.. We need professional match marketing in the Roshin League. ”
Al-Hilal is going great in all tournaments this season, and recently was named Saudi Super Diriyah Cup, after the Grand Final win over Etihad Club (4-1).
