RBB Announcement | Season Boycott

[ColdRock]

A lot of people view the RBB as a troupe of travelling gypsies, contractually obligated to sing and dance when commanded. We're regular people with jobs and families. I'll stay home with my family rather than trek out to Homebush and risk being arrested for challenging a request to quit due to swearing or standing near the wrong seat. If we are patted down then herded like cattle to our designated pens with a battalion of bulls itching to jump on us, forgive us if we don't feel like singing and dancing. It's a lot to stomach to patronise a club that has made no bones about us being surplus to requirements

to stomach

[marron]

I'm sure all the people who won't be placing their needs above the team will step in and fill the void. 

[HAPPY]

Hi all Happy back again

1 flair to many after all the previous warnings RBB was clearly put on notice, any more or disruption you will be delt with  , it is a little like a drink driver you offend 3 times you go to Jail then squeal it up that it was unfair while some big black fella has you bent over a table reeming you.

RBB was told and given plenty of warning , if the RBB ever cost the wanderers 3 points in a season you should be banned for life you have been warned enough times .

Get the RBB bad boy bullshit out of your system and do what it is all about:

SUPPORT YOUR SOCCER TEAM AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT IF YOU ARE A TRUE  WANDERERS SUPPORTER  AND GET TO THE GROUND THIS AFTERNOON AND SUPPORT YOUR TEAM AND IF YOU ARE THAT AND PUT THE PETTY HOOLIGANISM  THAT RBB NOW HAS A REPUTATION FOR AND STAY AWAY FROM SOCCER , GO TO THE LOCAL PUB AND SEE IF YOU CAN FIND SOME ONE TO FIGHT OR LET A FLAIR OF IN THE BAR BUT FOR THE WANDERERS SAKE GET TO THE GAME AND BEHAVE OR GET LOST

Bye now from Happy   

 

[ColdRock]

And do what marron? One would have to survive 2 hours of amorous glares from authorities who have recieved carte blanche from the club to rip in and kick ass. This zero tolerance, family friendly mangement has publicly declared time and again that the RBB is unlawful and asking for it. The feeling of invincibilty that must accompany you during a shift at a Wanderers match while you grip your nightstick and mace white knuckle tight must truly be near climatic. What rights could any person wearing red or black excercise in that atmosphere, it's Stockholm without the chocolates

You are right. So right. I should be honoured and happy to be treated like a terrorist by trained anti-terror operatives.

Where are my manners. As an RBB member I owe the other fans everything and I will attend and waste more of my personal time to please you because it makes you feel better, all while I'm getting profiled by an ANTI TERRORISM ORGANISATION and we've heard nothing from the FFA.

Would you like me to shine your shoes too? 

 

Petty hooliganism. **** off. It has nothing to do with bloody flares. Read the ******* statement. 

[1988banana]

Still talking about flares i see 🤦‍♂️🤯

[ColdRock]

No HAPPY's right. In a perefect world we should be able to say screw the politics, screw the flexing, screw the drama, I'm going to my hill with my cans and having a great evening. What HAPPY hasn't seen is the louder you are the closer the authorities come. When they see your passion they think "that's him". "that's the one the club told us to look out for. The one getting all the notoriety in the papers". Surounded by uniformed Rambos you now have a very narrow scope in which to behave. If you express disgust with the referee, you're out. If you scream something at Carney, Hoole or Aloisi, you're out. If you block someone elses view, you're out. If you commit any offence deemed anti social, you're out. Now comes the moment they've been waiting for. Will he go like a good lamb or will he question his ejection? A moments hesitation and HAPPY is on the floor with a face full of concrete or mace, with the club ready to throw him under the bus in the coming days

Hi All Happy here again

What is really sad is that really what this is all about is to a soccer game cheer for your team and go home happy or unhappy but feeling good that you have just watched a game of soccer , talk about how bad the game was or how good and what a great goal or geez how did we lose that game.

That's what soccer is about so happy is gunna crack it here and say " FOR GOODNESS SAKE GET YOUR ARSES TO THE GAME AND SUPPORT YOUR F*#@ BELOVED WESTERN SYDNEY WANDERERS AND CUT THE CRAP) .

That's what a true soccer supporter would do so see you all tomorrow night and lets help the Wanderers win !!!

bye for now from Happy

 

 

Hey Mack

When will you introduced a dislike icon/option?

Biggest game of a terrible season and RBB decide their needs are greater than the needs of the team, typical of the 'blame mentality' we see everyday from this generation.  Sure the sanctions are incorrect, I agree, but the simple truth is if there was no illegal behaviour in regard to the pet hate which is flairs then NOTHING else would of happened now don't say it was just a few individuals or whatever, it was as planned as sure as day follows night.  You want respect you have to earn it you don't just get it. The saddest part is in Government parlance you have lost the support of your electorate, whereas WSW members would stand up and fight for you guys in the past it appears as if now they purely don't give a **** whether you are there or not, losing the support of your own party - that's a sad state to be in, the fact that we are losing and not playing well gives credence to those who say you are abandoning a sinking ship rightly or wrongly.  When the results turn around and Parra Stadium is complete we will have you all back on the terraces guaranteed regardless of any sanctions, the Club knows that and the FFA knows that and deep down even you know it.

This statement 'we live for the badge and colours of this club, this decision has been made in order to reconvene with all stakeholders during the off season' is as laughable as it is stupid.  Soooo we live for this badge and are willing to risk this entire season so as we can get to have a meeting with some suits - hahahah hardcore my ass!!!  What will not going to the game achieve in regard to hurting FFA, I will tell you, absolutely ZERO, they already have your money and the atmosphere will be **** at that shithole no matter who is there.  Perhaps while you are at home today or in GA, go take your lyric sheet and read the lyrics of the chants.  So while I respect your right to do whatever you feel you need to do, this Badge and this Team should be the No1 priority not some petty ego disagreement.  

Yes my leader you are right!!!! 🤮

[ColdRock]

Best part is anyone ejected or banned tonight, including Mr HAPPY, won't have anyone to stand up for them because they crossed a picket line to be there in the first place

You don’t sound too happy.

[lloydy136]

So, 'happy', you are comfortable with and supportive of the way your fellow wanderers fans have been treated by club/ffa/security/police?

Well wehad it coming. We lit those flares, we broke those chairs, we punched a person, we swore, we wore those clothes. It was all about us. Funny now people are saying it's not all about us it's about the team, the club, the crest. Anything good is attributed to the collective, anything bad gets laid at the feet of the RBB

[HAPPY]

Hi All Happy here again

LLoydy, I go to the wanderers games to enjoy a good game of soccer socialise with like minded friends, I get pissed of when things go against us either by Ref or other Player or our own (Michael Thwaites effort last week being one )  and I give my view as loud as any one else.

I support and love the club being born and bred in the west , being a bit older than you lot and having been in attendance at games such as Marconi v Pan Hellenic etc: where pitches have been invaded and all sorts of Drama , been locked in dressing sheds after games because some Croatian fella from the other team was sent off and was out side with baseball bat wanting to cave a few heads in , I have seen it all.

 I have seen the efforts of the RBB take us to another level as a soccer club which I have enjoyed , who cannot Enjoy watching the RBB at Parramatta Stadium in full voice , I did , but the RBB has over stepped its mark and no I don't support the concerted effort of  swearing infront children , I swear but I cannot condon a stadium being drowned by F#$@ The FFA in front of a family and their children  I cannot condon after how many warning the RBB continue to lite flairs with the effect of the club having to outlay $50,000  at time in fines and the threat of 3 point deduction  , $50K could well be invested in paying for better players than having pay it out in fines caused by the RBB. I cannot accept you as a fellow supporter when you won't support the Team , the RBB is not a fellow supporter of mine , they once were not any more because they do not support the Wanderers they support their own little world that is to come to Wanderers sing you , chant fowl language light flairs total show disrespect to Authority. 

Get over it RBB and do what you originally came here for to support the Western Sydney Wanderers.

If you want to come and thump me in the head come tonight as I think I will become the lone person  in the RBB tonight and try and drum up some noise , look for me on TV

Geez!!

bye for now from Happy

Why weren't 18000 people arrested, charged and given bans this night? 

The language was appalling. Please think of the children!!

I respect your decision to do whatever the hell you want but if you act like an imbecile or hang around idiots that act like imbeciles then expect to get treated like one.  120k in fines in 3 seasons whats that 2 youth players wages?  The atmosphere will be **** today but lets be honest it was shite for the last 6 months anyway, they have your membership fees, they dont care so what is this going to achieve? The only thing you are penalising is the team who you claim to support, not the FFA.

I'm not attending tonight in solidarity. But the problem is, if you are in a group of thousands, where 10 or so max MAY act like imbeciles, the response should not be, treat them all the same. 

Rugby League is filled with inbeclies, yet the powers in charge do not view their entire fanbases the same as those few who breach regulations. 

I want to go to a football match and not be profiled by an anti-terror organisation. I'm not a criminal. How would you feel if you were followed or profiled by Hatamoto?

I said the same a few weeks ago when the capo was banned.

I guarantee I could go to ANY NRL game this weekend and hear constant foul language and abuse worse than what he was given the ban for.

I'm sure NRL tickets have the same terms and conditions printed on the back as ours do. So, why are we, as football fans targeted more heavily than any other sport in this country? Why is my 15 y.o. son frisked and scanned with a detector time after time at a football game?

Gallop and Lowy are stooges. JT isn't much better. They are collectively destroying the game in this country.

If they are allowed to continue along this path, we will be back to NSL level of interest.

But at least it will be FAMILY ******* FRIENDLY.

Why always been this way, football is seen as “other”, “unaustralian”, “wogs game” it’s basically the fear of other. You either assimilate into “Australian” culture or media etc will tear you down. It’s happened all thru the NSL. 

So the FFA are trying to assimilate, which means bending over for a media, police etc that at best couldn’t give a **** about football and at worst want to kill it. It won’t  work as we are trying to please a bunch of people who couldn’t care less.

Its stuffed the FFAs “target” audience seems to be a bunch of people who don’t actually like football that much.

The only hope is the generation of kids who have grown up playing football. 

But I’m not positive of that as their parents dress em in FC Barcelona shirts and Man Utd shorts 

sorry im off the point

The FFA will be very proud of you. You are their model supporter.

Come to games, empty your pockets, clap politely, dislike who they tell you to dislike, throw your fellow supporters under the bus when told to.

In fact i think JT may be in touch with you soon to play a leading role in his 'new era of active support'.

Perhaps he will even print you an 'Awesome Supporter' certificate that you can proudly display to demonstrate your superiority over other supporters such as myself.

Because it is only swearing when it's against the FFA same with the shirts if they had FCK Syd, Victory, Trump etc it would have been ok but no the FFA. 

[StringerBellend]

To carry on my rant yes Gallop and Lowy are killing the game, but they are killing it trying to appease a bunch of people who hate football (and anything that isn’t in their view “Australian”) Ray Hadley, the Daily Telegraph, channel 7 etc and a bunch who couldn’t care (pretty much every other media outlet) and in the process all in an effort to get a few Foxtel subscribers who follow the Eels and Souths from their lounge room to maybe watch the odd A League game.. 

its stuffed as in process they have killed off the one thing we had over the NRL and watching EPL on TV which was the live atmosphere and tribalism 

As for club and JT I had a level of sympathy as they are clearly stuck between trying to please FFA and trying to please people who want it to be like season 1 again (which it sadly will never be).  But with their recent responses (and lack of response) and throwing their own employees under the bus (a contractor is an employee) I’m about done.

Ill go game as to be honest I thought it was a boycot of being organised active (as opposed to attending) and also primarily I go to watch football. 

For what is worth I support the RBB stance, but of course It’s a shame it’s come to this, as I still bizarrely hold a hope that we go on a run in what basically now a knock out comp

it is hard to believe that only a couple of short years ago mainstream journos were writing articles about how we could be as big as collingwood or the broncos.

now we are looking at our biggest game of the season and a potential crowd of optimistically 8 or 9 thousand and a whole heap of our most dedicated supporters so disillusioned by the club and the league that they aren't going to attend a match that they have already paid for. All the while we have armies of people like 'happy' on social media who have been convinced that its all the fault of a group of a couple of thousand supporters and not the fault of the abject failures running the club and the game.

**** the ffa. this league will continue to circle the drain unless radical change is implemented because as loud and annoying as they are, there are not enough 'happy's' to make the league viable.
