Been talked in to going.

If we somehow conjure up a win i might just think of something nice to say about gombau.

Have you picked out the tatoo design? “In gombau we trust”

Wow ticket sales are terrible. Maybe somebody at the FFA will take notice of crap scheduling and price gouging? Maybe our club may take some notice too SOP and **** results from last year is killing us 

Oh well I’m looking forward to it anyway 

Perhaps some Star Wars themed round is in order to rectify it 

Balkanite and I are IN but only after winning the Wanderers App Derby Experience Raffle. 

We get a chauffeured car, lunch including alcohol in Parramatta and two Cat A tickets. 

We probably wouldn’t have bothered going otherwise. It’s a lot of money to spend going out late on a work night, only to be treated like criminals when you get there. 

We’re only going because we aren’t laying out for anything.

in +4, because i'm not a fair weather supporter that abandons the team when the going gets tough 

if you can't afford to buy a ticket and you want to go, DM me and i'll get you one

Friend of mine who is kiwi and Wanderers supporters said to pass on to coaching staff long sprigs for boots and pass the ball off the ground.

In +1. Been in pain for almost 3 weeks now. Doctors don't know why yet. It hurts to sit, hurts to stand, and sometimes I can barely walk. I'll not march this time but stuff it I'm going.

Anyone going tomorrow can't be accused of being fair weather cos it's going to be far from fair. Going to be CCM away S1 conditions.

Haliti in the rain! One of my favourite Wanderers moments

The weather was so wet that some poor people had to use Marine Distress signals..

Don't think my undies have dried out yet from that CCM game season 1. The only time I was wetter at a game was at Oakwell, Barnsley for a Boro away game in 1994, torrential rain on a totally open terrace and the wind blowing right in to us, cold as well. 

Found a video on that, I am in there somewhere at 14 seconds lol

Picking up AdelaideWanderer from the airport tomorrow and remembering those who won't go east of Anzac Parade

Oh...I'm sorry to hear that you've been under the weather Ed.

I'd urge you to think carefully about attempting the game if you're in a lot of pain.

I went to the last Socceroos game at ANZ with an injured knee.

And the walk from the bus, the climb to Level 6  the sitting in those cramped, uncomfortable seats, and the walk back to the bus nearly killed me. I regretted going with every step I took.

You have a lot of walking to do to get from anywhere where you can park etc at Allianz...

You take care if you do attempt the game!

Sorry to hear you are unwell mate, take care 

I’m hoping a Bridge winner will make you feel a bit better

Thanks Wendy. I'm going regardless. As far as I know it's not due to an injury. I'm driving in. It's a relatively short walk  to the actives entrance..

Arnie with his pre derby sledge, saying bridge originally wanted to join esfc.. I wonder if there was any truth to this..

Far from fair weather mate. You Scots are made from stern stuff

And  

Let it rain let it pour..........

Match day I’m nervous already, this is going to be Haliti in the rain good (or totally depressing)

I just done see any other result than a hard fought draw or a loss.

Sydney have far too many good players, even with a few key ones out. 

As soon as Adrian and Ninkovic are on the field at the same time it’s basically  game over unless you have the quality to contain them. Which we don’t. 

Actually i don’t even think it’s about their team anymore, we couldn’t even beat them when they finished seventh and we went to the GF. 

Club needs to grow a pair and put its big boy pants on.

I have hope they will have to deal with carrusca, oriol and Ikonomidis. I genuinely think though our best chance will come from Llorente and Risdon crossing the ball to oriol

Relax amico no need to be nervous here listen to this song it should get your adrenaline pumping 

 

I’m sticking with this thanks 

OK...so I'm actually feeling just a bit excited...for the first time all season....or is it since Game 1 of last season? 

We will have our Wanderers lucky charm with us. Italian by birth, New York and Miami by upbringing, long time resident of Madrid and now Sydney...for a few years at least.

If we have ever lost a game when he's been present...I don't recall it ( he wasn't here all last season...or earlier this season  until the last  Mariners game).

So...I won't say I'm confident...but I feel a bit optimistic .

COYW!

Isn't Risdon suspended for this game?

Hope you're right about the rest though.
