Tesla Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Just to add to that... Cool online banter guys , but then what? Surely will get boring at some point. I like having posters on here from other teams, I think its interesting. Much rather have some civil discussion than some pointless back and forth crap. Especially with the west sydney fans, as they're new and its interesting to look at the RBB's development and comparing it to where ys was at a similar point. They definitely have a lot of potential, though having seen them up close I was kind of expecting more TBH as they probably have more experience than our group did when we started. Though I do think Bravas is underestimating YS, and I encourage him to make the trip to Melbourne later in the season for a better look, it should clear any delusions he may have about YS ever looking like the Den compared to RBB, because right now its very much the other way 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't my opinion, as I've never minded YS that much, just providing a (potential?) explanation.

Llama Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) Not sure to be honest. Hahaha okay. If you're not familiar, Sydney is a hell of a lot bigger city then Melbourne and there are 5 distinct geographic areas then what you might think it is (a East and West divide).

Tesla Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 what happens when Olympic play Wanderers one day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llama Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 I've been supporting Olympic for 23 years and WSW for 5-6 months. But, WSW and is growing on me quickly and the thing really is contagious. I guess I'll see when the game comes, and will most probably be mutual.

Ando Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 The highlight of the trip was seeing RBB dance to Gangnam Style, then sing Seven Nation Army when Bridge scored.

I was at the top of rbb and i can assure you i dont think anyone in the rbb knew gangnam style and 7na were playing over the pa, not sure why they would play them.. Perhaps others in the crowd were singing them? Fck knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSK_47 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 and 7na were playing over the pa, not sure why they would play them It was a dance version so I just assumed it was from someones Kenwood parked on Paramatta Rd being picked up on the mic.

bazzatron Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 I was at the Sydney Derby and there were a lot of kids, families and randoms in the crowd(on the big screen as well) dancing to Gangnam Style. It was pretty funny to see, although a shit song, its popular atm and if it entertains the families that pay close to a $200 for a night at the football then so be it. They will continue to return and pay their hard earned if they enjoy themselves. I didnt see RBB doing Gangnam, perhaps there was the odd random in there but, many either side the 3 bays. 7NA seriously? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FB. Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Talked to a number of WSW/RBB fans on the train in who admitted to being Sydney FC fans before the Wanderers came about. When I got to the game I couldn't believe my ears when they started chanting "We'll always love you, we'll never betray you". I'm guessing it was an ironic chant. Edited November 6, 2012 by FB.

Llama Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Most in the RBB either never supported SFC or stopped supporting them a few years ago. Only a tiny minority would have changed from the cove to the RBB this season, if that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravas Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Have only met one ex cove member.. The rest either sat on the sidelines or Barely supported sfc at all.. Its always been and will always be a team for the east Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadete Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 I quite like Parramatta, it exceeded expectations. I'll be back. You serious? It was like Glenny but with a boring river and a few more cafes of the "Greasy and Over Priced Lygon Street Variety". The Pub was half decent in terms of a ample beer garden and VB on Tap and having a TAB but besides that I think location wise I prefer attending games in the East of Sydney.

Ando Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 As someone who quite likes Glen Waverley (after having to live there for a while) I found it quite nice. Parra needs more Asian food places though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parra needs more Asian food places though. Lol, I forgot that - Was not trying to offend. When I lived in GW for a couple of months I did not have a car so it sent me a bit mad walking for 30 minutes each day to the Train Station if I missed the Bus that only came every two hours. Would love a Sydney team at North Sydney Oval again - That would be the bomb for me. (TBH I never understood why the Sky Blues did not use the place for a lower attending home match to try reconnect with the disillusioned Northern Spirit fans and the area in general.)

Funnily enough the two other places I would have suggested work with your Camp Granada gag - Eastwood and Chatswood! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Spoke to my workmate who was at Hearts game v WSW and he told me about the blokes who were trying to pick a fight. When he told them to back off he was told something along the lines of "Your right mate, you're wog too". Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benched Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Was surprised at the turn out from Heart. Apparently 100 away bay tickets were sold, and 40 of them to actives. Didn't look like that many. Can anyone confirm how many was actually in the away bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
