  1. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/may/14/football-fans-have-long-been-treated-with-contempt-and-there-is-no-sign-of-that-changing Noted this may need merging or moving, but I felt this needed discussion. I've seen enough inside AAMI to suggest that security and policing is awful. Examples: - Fans of WSW and City sitting together as a group of friends at the pre-season FFA Cup match being asked to separate by security staff - Active supporters constantly being hassled for what looks to me to be nothing - 'waving a flag', 'getting too excited', 'throwing a ball about' - there was even one memorable occasion this season when the capo appeared to be ejected, or at least taken out and spoken to - And the one time a robust presence was needed, when the Victory active arrived beered up at Gate 2 and proceeded to shove waiting City fans out of the way, security were nowhere to be seen Really glad this is finally getting the coverage it deserves. We are law-abiding, sensible fifty-somethings. But I and Mrs F are constantly alarmed at what we see inside the ground - including the unnecessarily overwhelming police presence around Active, and the apparent contempt in which soccer fans are held. Especially when all the violence is at the AFL.

  4. I reckon Macarthur is a great location for an expansion club and they've honestly done really well with the name and logo imo, I'm excited for their arrival. With them being only 45km away from Parramatta Stadium and 40km away from Kogarah Oval it sets up a two really nice Sydney derbies and then being only 55km away from WIN Stadium really sets up a strong platform for a Wollongong team to come in during the next expansion phase. It's a relatively risk-adverse choice and then with a stronger league hopefully we can get some of the more romantic types (Wollongong, Canberra, Tasmania etc.) into the competition.

  5. - Great young player, lots of potential - Fulfils a position we need with RDL going - Adelaide fans very sad to see him go (which says a lot) City fans response: - Hes played at too many clubs, nty

  6. Fantastic news, the man was toxic! Trust me he isn't a great goalie coach, him stepping down is for the better.

  7. Agree about getting the best out of the keepers but a swine of a man. Well 2 down now. Hopefully Kisnorbo sees the door next.

  10. IMO we've never got the marquee and visa players right, and it's therefore no surprise that we've not won a league trophy so far. Neither of or two best players - Mooy and Fornaroli - were actually signed as marquees in the first instance.

  12. Fwiw when i spoke to Wazza at that mctf event in Feb or March or whenever it was, he was frustrated that Florin hadn't been able to get a clean run at it and had played most games carrying something. He thought he could a really good player at the level. Im far from sold on him, but imo we saw enough in the last month to suggest there could be something worth perservering with, provided the price wasnt too high.
