Some players weigh in on the debate... and condemn it.

Seems a little scripted or predictable from the WSW and timed well to come out before just before the deadline to show cause before the FFA deal out any punishment. All trying to distance themselves from the idiots who caused the issue and build a case its a not fans of the club doing it.Quote:

They have bought the detonators to Newcastle before, I was amazed nothing was done about it that time. I can see that irrespective of the punishment, the people involved will probably try and ramp it up somewhere as a F$CK YOU to the FFA.
Every time the WSW fans light a flare the FFA cut off one of Mark Bridge toes. Once they get to thirteen flares the FFA then start cutting off his fingers.
Solved.

In summary - please don't hurt us, it's not fair to punish us for our fans!
Seemed to work fairly well in the UK and other parts of the world.Quote:
They’ve done nothing wrong in this instance, and penalising the club doesn’t eradicate the problem. The problem is not within the club.

Football Federation Australia (FFA) has today fined the Western Sydney Wanderers $50,000 and imposed a suspended three (3) competition point deduction after finding the club guilty of bringing the game into disrepute following the misconduct of some of its supporters last Saturday.
The sanction has been handed down after FFA found some Western Sydney Wanderers fans took part in a pre-meditated and coordinated series of incidents including the ignition of flares and detonators and the display of unauthorised banners.
Where a serious incident occurs that FFA determines should trigger the suspended sanction, the Club will immediately lose three points in the Hyundai A-League. This will apply to incidents that occur in or around any matches the club participates in and will be in place for a period of 12 months, through to 6 February 2017.
“The events of last Saturday night and the coordinated misconduct of a section of Western Sydney Wanderers fans cannot be tolerated by anyone in Australian football,” said FFA CEO David Gallop.
“The misconduct was not only dangerous and threatening but the coordinated and calculated way the fans behaved was a serious blight on the reputation of football and everyone involved in our game including clubs, members, fans, players and officials.

I predict there will be a walk out over this.
Let them. Less mess to clean up afterwards 😊Quote:

Geez I hope they rip a flare here in a few weeks - make sure we film it cos Fux will try to ignore it (especially if Cock is commentating).
There is now a high risk of home fans penetrating WSW away section and rip one
I think you'll find there might all of a sudden be some self policing in the away area.Quote:

Winder how many Smurfs fans are gonna stir up some trouble and drop Wankers further in the shit
and they will get caught, and they will get punished, and the WSW will be in the clear.Quote:

Summary:
Others do it too
We are picked on
It's the medias fault
Individuals are responsible for their own actions (we won't self police)
And about 15 veiled threats to the FFA that boycotts will happen again if they don't get what they want after the FFA meeting on feb19
Response form other wsw fans was pretty good though. Most called them out for the billshit they're spinning.
Hopefully the other fan bases don't fall in behind them this time round.Quote:

Hope they come into the southern to fix our seating issue? Some of those seats are way past it
Pardon my complete ignorance on this topic as in the past have had no interest or feelings either way on the topic of flares.
But my question, it is illegal is it not to rip a flare anywhere, bar intended uses I assume, not just at a football match?
If tom thumbs and throwdowns are banned I would expect so.
That's what I thought. So why has it taken the FFA 11 years to actually get serious about illegal activity.
Any argument for flares seems irrelevant as long as they are illegal. Just keep deducting 3 points for every flare that's ripped and see how long they persist.

There is history - I remember MV fans ripping flares here in V3 I think that caused alot of trouble. No points lost though.
And a serious incident started by Sydney United fans here back in the United days.
I can't see an argument in favour of flares if flagpoles, glass bottles and beachballs and fireworks as mentioned get confiscated by authorities.
Although a fire like this is unlikely in current Australian stadia anyone caught lighting flares should be made to watch this...

Should be compulsory viewing for anyone who wants to rip an extremely flammable device in a place they weren't designed for.Quote:

No it was started by a bit of burning paper. The reason things are like they are now has much to do with Bradford, Heysel and Hillsborough.
These self indulgent twits can't see that.

nothing all that new to anyone here
Solution:
Douse the rbb in petrol and trust there wont be a dickhead.
Disconnect water
Sit back and enjoy game
Just had to shake my head in disbelief seeing the comments in social media from some WSW supporters regarding security at the Victory game last week.
Now it's a common gripe from many who participate in active support (including Jets supporters on here) that security/police are quite often over zealous in doing their job of just maintaining orderly conduct at a football match. Now when I heard some WSW supporters whingeing that "the security was really slack in Melbourne for the Victory game", "people were just walking in without getting their bags checked" blah blah blah.....basically that the lack of proper security contributed to the sheninigans of last Saturday night at Etihad....it's clear these idiots not only want their cake but want to eat the whole ****ing thing!!!
if the bank doesnt lock its door we can obvs take the money. Outbreak of west sydney palsyQuote:
