Pffft, 'sif we know anything. It's not like without the fans, theres not a club and they would be out of a job.
Oh wait.....
On another note, it may not be a bad thing that Tinkler offloads us, we get rid of Palmer (huzzah!) and potentially Middleby as well!
But are you prepared to trade one Palmer for possibly another (Clive may see this as another Tiatnic struggle he can win with FFA)??????Quote:

DG: Cup style competition in 2014 (believe it when it happens...)
DG: Working on a model to allow clubs to attract more sponsors (not sure what the Q was)
Everything else is CCM crap that I don't care about.
Other stuff...
DDB: looking at possibility of playing more NYL games before HAL fixtures.
Hilariously, gypos are going to get a commemorative shirt put together when they reach FIVE THOUSAND members. Dreaming big.
:gent: One of the questions asked in the fan forum was "how can we attract fans from Newcastle and Sydney?!" :gent::lulz:
FFA would never let Clive Palmer near the aleague again.Quote:

Why the **** would the FFA let Clive back in after the GCU debacle?Quote:

I just get the SFC Newsletter since buying tickets in THE AWAY BAY at Sydney lol
:rof: pretty sure a group walking near me as I walked past the WSW tent said "the Sydney FC one is probably behind this one, it'll be twice as big as this shitty effort". I think they're still looking for the Sydney FC tent :rof:Quote:

I walked around 3/4 of the ground to get to my seat (went the wrong way) and still didn't see it. WSW was pretty easy to spot as you approached the stadium from the train station near the food stalls. Field for the kids was behind the goal that Kennedy didn't score at ( the Iraqi supporters end).Quote:

Yep I walked from the station all the way around the right and didn't notice anything Sydney FC related apart from one or two hats randoms were wearingQuote:
