Don't jump the gun yet.
Innocent until proven guilty. Seems like a media beat up to me, how do the witnesses know their AMOK members(typical Fairfax bullshit). I'm not condoning what's happen and if their guilty throw the book at them but until all is know presumption of innocence should be given to WSW.
Hope the young kid isn't to hurt to bad.

come on muscles, why would they steal his shoes if they weren't? :rof:

[sammydog]

Problem I see with the Wanderers is even when there is a problem, the greater wanderer fan base seem to try and deflect problems by bringing up other clubs incidents.

Sticking their collective heads in the sand for too long has allowed the problem to grow. They need to get their own house in order before pointing the fingers at others.

Everyone who has supported the a-league since before the WSW knows the correlation between them and trouble.

Same way I know that I walked past a group of AMOK and a Northgate member in parramatta Yesterday.

There has always been unreported trouble at A-league games.

[belchardo]

not really sure how this is the wanderers problem. how do the wanderers control a situation that doesn't occur during a match they are playing in, doesn't occur outside/near a game they are playing in, doesn't even occur near their stadium?

:lulzturtle:
As a direct result of the anti-social behaviour and ignition of flares at the Western Sydney Wanderers vs Ulsan Hyundai match on Wednesday 26 February within the Northern Terrace the Western Sydney Wanderers, Pirtek Stadium, Football Federation Australia and Police are conducting a detailed formal investigation and review of all available evidence ahead of initiating a series of charges and legal and venue related sanctions.
The investigation will aim to identify the perpetrators and ensure that the maximum possible sanctions (Criminal and Civil) are invoked with a view to the eradication of this anti-social behaviour from our game and the subsequent upholding of community standards to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for all who attend matches at Pirtek Stadium.

Effective immediately will be the banning of flags, fence banners and concession items that are directly connected to the three supporter groups who occupied the area in which the disturbances of Wednesday night emanated.
The potential for this step to be implemented was outlined to Red and Black Bloc representatives prior to the season commencing via a Memorandum of Understanding and also a pre-season members forum.
The ban on items relating to these supporter groups within the Red and Black Bloc will be indefinite until the police, FFA and internal investigations have concluded, the perpetrators identified and appropriate measures taken including all available legal penalties in addition to FFA ban’s of up to five years from all football matches in Australia.
Anyone with information that can assist the current investigation process is encouraged to contact the club or FFA directly as it has become very clear that the majority of our 17,000 members also hold a zero tolerance for this sort of behaviour in venue and the damage that it can do to our club and all associated with it.
Asian Football Confederation regulations stipulate that there is a $5000 USD fine for every flare that is discharged at an ACL match. This information had been communicated to Red and Black Bloc representatives late 2013. In addition it is a criminal offence to discharge a flare within a normal Hyundai A-League fixture. The majority of members who continue to support our club with the wonderful pride, passion and exemplary behaviour they do should be aware that detailed discussions have occurred with Police since Wednesday night and an absolute zero tolerance will now be enforced even more strongly than it has been in the past until this element is removed from our game.
If you would like to receive a copy of the Memorandum of Understanding or have specific questions in relation to active supporter operations within the club members are welcome to email active@wswanderersfc.com.au where a club representative will respond appropriately.
For reference “concession items” are items that are not allowed into the venue without prior approval and consent from the venue. This approval is requested from the venue by the Western Sydney Wanderers on behalf of the requesting members and includes all oversized flags, fence banners, musical instruments, megaphones or loudhailers, TIFO’s, Capo’s stands and confetti.

:pissup::lulzturtle:

[furns]

Cant say they werent warned, yet they didnt listen.
Will be interesting to see their reaction tomorrow.

[furns]

reading their foz, it appears that its only norfgate, amok and another sub group who are affected by these restrictions.

Please note that this does NOT in anyway affect the musical instruments, megaphones, flags or Capo stands.

So the RBB get to keep all their stuff, its just going to be a few banners missing.

Gaz to rip up season ticket in protest

Offloaded it when I moved.


I missed that members email, as about 5hrs before it was sent I decided I'd had enough of the their remain marketing.......which is far far far less annoying than the jets an unsubscribed.




What laughable is the wording of the email really does imply that the whole north end was effectively covered by these restrictions..... They get a load of complaints and then make a statement implying its only northgate, amok etc etc that can't bring in flags, banners etc.


The real joke is the idiots who whinge saying "what are we meant to do, we can't control the whole crowd"..... Exactly, you can't, so let the club show the ****wits what controls they'll bring in.

Seven flares, just cost the club $35k that's a lot of community programs up in red smoke, and if seven people rip flares more than seven see it happen.

Ali Abbas was blowing up after the game. Got on the Fox Sports interview blowing up deluxe about religious/racial shit inn the game and saying it wasn't on. Didn't name the blokes involved but seemed to want to be punching on with Santalab for some reason

Fact remains, any racism is racism and it should not be tolerated.

Difference between giving someone "a bit of lip" and using derogatory comments because of their race/culture or religion. If you have to resort to that sort of crap on the field then it says a lot about your character as a person

[GazFish35]

The public reaction to Abbas' reaction on the field and his interview says so much about this country.

Holy fcuk we have some growing up to do.

[Grimario]

Biggest disc race was Bozza saying in the post match stuff "it was something just said in the heat of the moment, shake hands say sorry and get on with football".

Nawwwww he didn't really say that. He said that at the very least the culprit should own up and apologise right away and that Abbas is the kind of person that would respect that honesty.
Him and Rudan both made it clear dat shit ain't right.

What exactly was the "public reaction"?

[hawk]

“I come from a different country, I respect everyone here. I should get it back. If I don't get it back, I'm going to attack.
That is correct except for one bit.
talk about growing up, Ali is shooting his cause by reacting like a crazed dog. Threatening and being violent is worse.

If we are to rightly stamp out this sh1t and do it right then go about it like Adam Goodes. Report it immediatley, take it to the public, do the public campaign, get the purpetrators to do/run the programs, go to the schools, get it on tv, keep it ongoing.

[pv4]

Bad move by fox to interview him post-game IMO. If someone is that noticeably heated, you don't put a microphone in front of their face. Coming from a non English background, different culture, etc etc it looks like Ali has struggled to calm himself down here and it has blown up in a way that it shouldn't have.

If Santalab or whoever actually did use racist remarks, I'd like to see them banned for as long as Vuko got banned for the ref slapped

[Blackmac79]

Who ever said it should be banned from football for life

[Grimario]

Don't forget that a fan here in Adelaide copped a 1 year ban for racially abusing a player... if a player has done the same, shouldn't they have the same (if not more) level of accountability?

Don't hold your breath. Sentences for players are usually soft

The FFA will be spitting chips about this whole matter though. Stealing the headlines for all the wrong reasons so may come down harsh to set a precedent/deterrent

[GazFish35]

What exactly was the "public reaction"?

People claiming abbas's actions was poor sportmasnship, he should walk away, and his comments in the interview were uncalled for. On twitter He's been called a violent thug and a litany of racist terms all because he he stood up to some racist comment. His physical reaction/retaliation might not have been as cool calm and collected as he would have liked, or as hawk pointed out, as controlled as Adam goodes, but some dimwits appear to think his reaction has taking all responsibility of santalab (allegedly) and that Abbas is the only problem.

I'd argue Goodes calmer reaction would have been helped by his abuser being a teenage girl in the crowd , its not like he's going to vault the first few rows and punch on with a 13 yr old girl, at least I hope not.

It would be quite different if it had been an opposition player, a grown man who should know better.

[GazFish35]

No argument here!

[Thomas477]

Before we crucify Abbas, it would depend on what (I assume) Santalab said. If Santalab did say something hugely offensive, would you expect Abbas not to blow up? I wouldn't.

[Jeterpool]

I suggest we wait until it all comes out in the water. There's no point making judgement until we know all the facts.

[GazFish35]

It's what the FFA do.

[stopper2]

Thought Slater's view on Shootout tonight were poor, more or less saying if the perpetrator just apologises behind closed doors to Abbas that that would be the ideal outcome. Agree with Thomas477, for all we know the offensive comment may have been directed at Ali's mother or sister...now if that was the case it's no wonder he was so irate.

Remember a few years back (season 2 or 3 of the HAL) when Musialik was given a 4 match (?) ban for calling Vargas a "monkey", will be interesting to see how this one unfolds!

[MFKS]

Generally speaking the whole situation is a sorry affair.

The bloke who has allegedly said something is gonna have a hard time justifying his actions when a large percentage of his teams support is from same/similar cultural and religious backgrounds as Abbas is

Other thing although Abbas reaction to be upset is also understandable the way he responded just gives a form of validation to the people who say these types of things whether that be on the sporting field or in the general community. ie the remarks are designed to hurt and upset and get a response and the alleged racist has got the reaction.

Making an issue of it is one thing but I would have thought not letting anyone see the true effects via rage/anger would be a way the victim would gain as much/not lose as much from the whole experience

While I think they were getting too big for their boots, the whole racial comments and silent protest is something the wanderers and the league could really do without.

Our league is growing. Our average crowd numbers growing. We out performed the first weekend of the league on Saturday night! Maintaining this positive momentum is important. I'm concerned the type if thing we are seeing may derail it.

I think we need all clubs to be successful in some degree for the good of the league and the further expansion of the game.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO MEMBERS
Dear Member,

What you are about to read is of serious importance to the future of our Club.

Since day one, our fans and the Western Sydney community have been the core of the Wanderers. Our Club has been built by and for the people of Western Sydney and our mission remains steadfast on being a world class football club - the pride of Western Sydney.

In recent weeks the Club has received a lot of feedback from members, fans and supporter groups expressing their concern about some of their recent experiences on match day at Wanderland.

We want to assure all members and supporter groups that this feedback has been listened to and acted upon and that we are determined to work with all stakeholders to ensure that what we have built together will not be compromised as we move forward.

There can be no doubt that the Wanderland experience created by our fans and the active support led by the Red and Black Bloc (RBB) has become widely regarded as the best sporting experience, full of the best sporting fans in the country.

Throughout this week we have been involved in multiple meetings with all stakeholders involved in the Wanderers match day operations and as a result of the collaborative and co-operative approach of these stakeholders we firmly believe some very positive outcomes have been achieved which will dramatically improve the match day experience for everyone.

These meetings have included members of NSW Police, Venues NSW (including Pirtek Stadium representatives), Football Federation Australia, Club members and representatives of our active supporter group the RBB.

It is fair to say there has been a unified acceptance that the Wanderland experience has been losing its gloss in recent matches and equally, there is strong commitment from all parties to work together to address these challenges. In saying this, it is important to recognise that everyone has a key role to play to improve the match day experience and to restore it to the incredible heights it has reached in the past.

The concerns of our members and other club stakeholders have been clearly expressed to all, including police and venue, by our Club and by representatives of our members including the active supporter groups. These concerns have been genuinely heard and we believe that there is a very real commitment by all parties to ensure an immediate difference so that our next home match against Brisbane Roar will be the best Wanderland experience this season – perhaps ever.

All fans and members who do the right thing have our 100 per cent support and we will continue to work tirelessly to ensure the Wanderland experience is world class. Following our discussions there is full acceptance that this goal can be far better achieved through the absence of both anti-social behaviour and excessive police presence at our matches.

Wanderland is a family friendly environment that has been lauded by Australian media, opposition teams and fans alike for its energy and intensity. Anything that jeopardises this environment is dealt with as an absolute priority. Following the very open and supportive discussions of this week we are confident that the right steps have been made to ensure that we are now geared for a fantastic finale to the regular season.

Being less than two years old and growing as fast as our club has, we are bound to have some speed bumps along the way, but we can assure you the road ahead remains full of endless possibilities and one we look forward to sharing with you.

In saying this there could not be any more excitement and anticipation around our final A-League match of the regular season. We encourage every one of our 16,904 members to attend what is sure to be a huge moment when Shinji Ono walks out for his last regular season A-League match and be prepared for a 21st minute celebration that will be the envy of the A-League.

See you at Wanderland


Seems like some one bent over and was violated without putting up a fight

[GazFish35]

To be fair to the club folk, the cops had started spreading by their love well beyond the confines of the northern end at parra.


It's funny that da RBB said da FFA weren't at the meeting, but the club says they were.

Amazing too I suppose that the club have bought in to the RBB spin on this.

Official RBB = six dudes who organise it all and liaise with club
Unofficial RBB = northgate and amok and the band.

The whole "poorly worded email" complaint was absolute bullshit. The RBB love the name. That northgate and amok have created for them and really should whinge when tarred with the same brush.

What is the most ironic is the RBB have been complaining that they can't be held responsible for the end when tickets are ga .... Hence their excuse for the Ulsan flares.... So they basically tell the cops, "it's not us, it's all of the others" so the cops spread their love.... And the RBB complain again!

Not sure what games you have been watching, we have fluctuated by 2000 around the 14 000 mark so far this season with our worst attendance being at Penrith where they had 1 kilometre long lines just before kick off and started rushing people through without scanning their ticket. we got 12 600 people. The main problem with attndances for us is members not showing up. with 16 500 ticketed members it's nigh on impossible to get tickets for non-members.

To be honest some people only go for the wins, but there's a good core who love the club and will turn up no matter what.

[Couscous]

I'm deeply worried by this new split in the WSW fan groups.

This club has held the league together for the past few years. We need a strong, united crowd at Parramatta to produce stirring images and video to market the league.

[weston]

what are the odds on the 2 groups turning on each other and having a mass riot?

[Thomas477]

Nice to see the wheels fall off the RBB.

[Jeterpool]

I think Western Sydney are in for a tough year. They've recruited heavily and moved many player on. Popovic has been backed in that regards and will be expected to deliver. The challenges this brings along with the ongoing RBB issues will make for a difficult season, I feel.

we were at debate about this last night and I still think the wanderers are the dark horses for the season.

this comes across much like there first season with the established HAL players they have signed

Vidosic & Nichols are dynamite for them in the midifled imo. people complain about Nichols but he is legitimately one of my fav HAL players.

Neville is a huge pickup as it is a huge loss for us as well.

I don't disagree with you about Nicholls, Neville and Vidosic. They've also retained NTS and Casteleen so they have a pretty strong team.

It is very much like their first season but I guess I am placing more of an emphasis on this time they have expectations (where they had none before) and they have troubles with the crowd (who were all aligned to start with).

This is a make or break year for Popovic.

fk those those greasy bastards. The league will survive and prosper without the fully sick cowards

From reading online comments it appears WST are the more moderate supporters while the RBB is being controlled by Norfgate and they are causing all the issues.

[GazFish35]

WST = normal bloke with brains.
RBB = loose ****ers with ego and no ****ing care or fear.

RBB would have a lot less problems if they just controlled their f-wit element, but we have seen in the past some NSW Police tactics have exacerbated the problem. Riot cops and Task Force Raptor in charge of gameday security fmd
Happy to say - our relationship with Newcastle Police is the best its ever been.

nor because they are violent

:yap:

for a good bit there i just figured they were taking the piss, looks like nah.


football fans are the ****ing worst.

[Jetmaster]

SO what was the criteria of the WSW "warning" re losing points - throwing confetti and letting off flares should be a no no right?

[Wilso8948]

God you lot are a bunch of nannys. Who cares if they wanna throw some streamers and let some flares off. If the ****ers wanna burn themselves then go for it. Youre blind if you think this doesnt add to the atmosphere. If you want everyone to sit there in silence go and watch an NRL game. As long as it stays within their area and not thrown on the field or in other areas of the crowd then I'm happy to let them go.
Letting those loud as **** chargers that went bang last year is a completely different story. And in no way do I condone violence. But I'm sure everyone will shoot me down now.

[Jetmaster]

Personally no issues with either in proper football atmosphere - but this is Oz, where such things are viewed with disdain.

They were warned about flares and threatened with loss of points, yet no action is ever taken - why?

After the reaction of the media over one drunken Jets fan, imagine if he let off a flare!

Actually agree with you somewhat. However it's the Dickhead members of RBB and WST that think they are some kind of Hard core Ultras so they can gain Internet points in the stupidest of my dick is bigger than yours contest. These dickheads think they have a given right to stomp on someone's head when they have there 50 mates with them but they would shit bricks if they actually went 1 on 1 with someone.
Nothing but gutless heroes that don't do anything to improve the image of football to the regular Joe Public.

As I said. No way condone violence and people like that are weak as piss and need to headbutt a metal pole.. But I just get over the whole flare bashing, chant knocking that I keep hearing. Such as comments that they steal their chants.. So what? There's a reason they stand the test of time. Sounds better 200 chanting then 20 chanting and 180 standing there saying wtf are these guys saying. I see it as a positive for the game and the Jets if all squads active support are strong. Rip off all you want but quit with the whinging. Just comes across as jealousy.

this quote from the Guardian today


Ante Covic’s gloves have been filled by Andrew Redmayne, but they would have been just as much use filled with sand and propped up at the foot of one of the goalposts. Redmayne’s continued selection is an indictment on the state of Australian goalkeeping
