heart1011 Posted December 30, 2023 Report Share Posted December 30, 2023 Hi all. So as next week's match is an "away" game for us we have to purchase tickets. If you use the code 2FORWUN on Ticketek you can get 2 tickets for the price of 1 just an fyi. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heart1011 Posted December 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2023 Rumours going around that their players have been paid late, they have no venue to play against Adelaide in a few weeks, fans are cracking the shits.. they really never should have been given a licence.. considering they blatantly lied to the APL about there supposed stadium that was supposed to be finished a while ago and I quote "we will build the town around the club".. go for a drive out there and you'll find a pile of dirt.. a shitty stand that has been erected and a shitty paddock that is apparently the pitch.. an absolute joke of a club it really is! 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH the fault lies more with the League/FA or whoever. Anyone trying to sell something will put the best face on it that they can. It's up to the buyer to do their due diligence. I feel the same with Macarthur. It's just in the endless suburbia of Sydney. IMO the league is about to repeat with Auckland. The front runner with the previous expansion was Team11. But even they could not guarantee a stadium/home ground. And when I say home ground I mean one suitable for football at a club level. The problem at the administrative level is that football keeps basing its decisions on projections and junior registrations, not actual grass roots interest in the game. Not on access to suitable grounds for spectators. Nor where potential players and staff and their families might wish to live? How many of the expansion clubs that we have had are actually still there and viable? How many no longer exist at the senior level? How many have never had the administrative body having to take at least part-ownership to survive? The NSD (Eastern States Thought Bubble League), the GF decision, now the all matches in Sydney week or whatever it is, so typical of hanging on to ideas to the bitter end.

I suspect that it is similar to the VFL/AFL transition. The VFL was effectively broke hence they created the AFL and charged the new interstate clubs a fortune so that they could pay off the accumulated debts. EVentually broadcasting rights were established and the AFL became more business like becoming the juggernaut that it is today. Similarly, FA were scrimping by hence the licenses went to the teams that paid up. Unfortunately, the FA never became professional enough to be put on a firm financial footing. The little kids are paying so that the petty local club officials can pretend they are big wigs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 I don't blame WU for using the same tactics against us every game; they work. Press our defenders as we play out, force a turnover, shot on goal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B. Cooper Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 Not the best half. About 30 minutes of average and 15 minutes of terrible. They’ are not giving Arslan the space like Brisbane gifted him (funnily enough) and are getting numbers back to defend their lead, making them hard to break down. Galloway ball watching for the goal for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k o Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 (edited) Galloway looks like he's never played left back and Good has been sub par. Anti football has come to town with JA. Disgusting football. But they're winning. Edited January 7 by n i k o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cremorne Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 At the stadium. Talbot knows how to shoot over the bar. Perhaps the team was complacent, taking them for granted. Still, we’re creating some chances, should still win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
