Not an exciting game. Hasn't been a shot on target all game?

Some good football I thought, WSW look a hundred times better than Sydney FC. Much better movement, and Ono will be a pleasure to watch this season. And for CCM Rogic has the makings of a real star. Also 10.5k in the pissing rain is a good sign.

went through a few sewing machines making this.

See you boys next week, albeit in much smaller numbers.

[Old Gregg]

Good stuff! How many you think are making the trip?

[Benched]

20 have already bought airfares. Hoping the hype after the weekend drags a few more along.

[sevengoals]

Good one!
Welcome to the A-league!

Whats the deal with banners and flags down there?
1.5m plus oversized?
Are security fuckwits or lenient?

Approved flags and banners must NOT exceed 2 metres in length and 1 metre in width.
Signs, banners or flags of participating teams only can be bought into the stadium.

I think you need to get them approved first by the club? Somebody should be able to confirm.

Are security fuckwits or lenient?

fuckwits.

If you're not planning on doing anything wrong you won't have to worry about security

[Benched]

Nah, we'll be good.
But have heard some horror stories about your secco's.

[sevengoals]

They just don't understand us...

[Benched]

Something we've been very firm with establishing the RBB was ensuring the cops and secco's 'understand' what active support is. Just because we are all going mental doesn't mean we are mental.

So far so good.

Marched to the ground. Coppers said no way. We said yes way so you'd wanna manage the traffic etc. Would be better if you help rather than hinder. The march was epic.

Our seco's at the Stadium have been briefed that this isn't thugby league support. 'Parra..clapclapclap' bullshit.

It helps the head of security is a football fan.

Early days for us but it's a good start.

Anyway, so you at Hindmarsh.
