Following consideration of submissions received from the Club, FFA has determined to extend the suspended three (3) competition point deduction hanging over the Club until the end of the Hyundai A-League 2016/17 Season. The Club has advised it will not appeal FFA’s determination.
Western Sydney Wanderers FC were found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute in February this year, the resultant sanctions including a fine as well a suspended three (3) competition point deduction.
The duration of the suspended sanction was originally set for a period of 12 months until 6 February 2017, but following the incident in the Club’s supporter area at the Sydney Derby on Saturday night in which three flares were lit, Head of Hyundai A-League Greg O’Rourke stated that the time frame would now be extended.
“Following the lighting of flares on Saturday night in a section of the Western Sydney Wanderers supporter area, the suspended sanction on the club which was initially enforced up until February 2017 will now be in place up until the end of the Hyundai A-League 2016/17 regular season,” O’Rourke said.
“While we will always consider a range of factors in assessing the seriousness of any anti social behaviour, the message is simple. If there’s a recurrence of the incident from last Saturday night involving flares identified to be let off in the Western Sydney Wanderers supporter area throughout the remainder of the regular season, FFA may well be left with no alternative other than to deduct points from the club.
“I have spoken with Western Sydney Wanderers CEO John Tsatsimas today and he has expressed his displeasure in what occurred on Saturday night and the Wanderers understand the seriousness of the situation.
“The club will reconnect with their members again this week given a few persons chose to ignore the communication and strong stance against the lighting of flares from John Tsatsimas, Head Coach Tony Popovic and captain Nikolai Topor-Stanley last Friday.”

Seriously though, how can the club expect us to take this signing seriously when the coach HASNT ****ING SEEN HIM PLAY?
Memo to Jones, Drovandi was NOT a success. How about we see how a player plays before signing them?
basket case of a clubQuote:

If he were a younger player trying to make a name for himself with a dream of going onto bigger and better things fair enough, but he appears to be a player who should be at his peak yet hasn't produced the goods to date particularly at this stage of his career, is the coach thinking he's gonna be a late bloomer??? I hope I'm very wrong about that, but if he really was any good why would he wanna step down to play A-League over a far more lucrative CSL contract...
Other question - I wonder how much we are paying him???
I'm not too concerned about the signing. Considering how late it's come, I doubt he's been signed instead of another player, so it appears we've simply got an extra player on the books than what we would have had. Lee might be under the impression the A-league is few steps down from the CSL and thinks an average CSL player could come here and look good. If he's rubbish, hopefully it's an eye-opener to our overlord. If he's any good, then we can applaud the signing.
And the people that actually love this song would be the same ****wits that don't realise they poached the riff from a Red Hot Chilli Peppers song..Quote:

The name suits it though, it really is very nice to listen to, basically just Flea and Frusciante jamming out over a couple of ideas. One of the variations got sampled as the main riff in that Butterfly songQuote:

Definitely not belittling the challenges of drug addiction, but a dude smoking crack on the roof of a rehab centre is kinda funny.
Also Dennis Rodman was on that show. That shit was funny.

Also I'm sure they only recently signed another extension to keep catering to hunter stadium.
I bought a rubbish mid strength Hahn at one of the western grandstand bars....I swear the cup was smaller than ever and half full to boot.....all for the bargain price of $6.50.....I'm going dry from now onQuote:

on the other hand, he will now never know what it is like to be a real football supporter following a real team with all the highs and the lows and the passion, but I'm not gonna feel sorry for him, he's made his bed... :D
The simplest question for this kid should have been - "where do you live". If he is from Brisbane or Perth, or even another state it reeks of plasticity.Quote:
