I wasn't in the country from 2005 when the NSL ended and didn't return until late 2010.......if I was still here I might have done......but when I came back I knew **** all about the HAL until WSW was brought to life. You, young man, are excused! PS I don't feel guilty at all! I did what I did to support the A League.

But i am sure I speak for all here when I say thank you for doing what you did, it was beyond the call of duty and I hope the year long scrubbing, washing and psychology sessions all helped.

I was there to see Parra Power take on the Glory a few times at Parra, including a GF......usually no more than 150 of us there......seems like a different world ago. I am proud to say I wasn't there to see ESFC play though. I was at that GF too. How that game got played is beyond me. Boy did it piss down! EmMac and Smoggy 2 Link to comment

Erebus Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 no we were in the corner bay (22 I believe). No where near the travelling Shed (if there was any?)

And yes, you were in the Western Stand down on the fence in a corner bay, and they weren't far from you guys...and behind you. It was probably the last time they called a tour of duty to Sydney. I had a great view of it all! I don't remember the reaction of The Cove - but I reckon you "Rovers" supporters got in a few more ….er…..choice words that they did! Link to comment

Wanderboy Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I was there Wendy at the ESFC/Glory game in the A-League...…..for the sole reason that I also wanted to see the A-League succeed, and wanted to see what a proper football atmosphere was like at Parra. To be honest, I never found that out till the Wanderers were formed. **** that blue mob were a joke. In other news, I was once the whole La Banda at a Parra Power game. A drum and drumstick was thrust upon me when I arrived, which I couldn't beat for ****. My timing and rhythm was worse than Sotirio's passes. Happy days. PS. I've still got my Parra Power shirt hanging in the wardrobe. Even the moth's won't touch it. Prydzopolis, Cynth, wendybr and 4 others 2 5 Link to comment
wendybr Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Thanks WB! Yes...it took the Wanderers....but what happened before was still important imho. That Perth game ...and the presence of the Rovers/RBB core was interesting as a starting point for the intense rivalry that was obviously going to erupt further along. For the real deal atmosphere...I was won over before I got to within about 2 blocks of the stadium for that first game of Season1 I'll never forget just walking along O'Connell St before the first game...and high-fiving people in cars waving their arms out car windows when they were stopped at lights as we crossed side streets. It was amazing! I really really hope some of that joy and intensity returns when we get back to Parra. Carns, Edinburgh, Wanderboy and 2 others 5 Link to comment

Fans will be desperate, and our only memories will be happy ones. I've already forgotten the bad days, and all I ever think of is great ACL nights and cracking A-League games. That will be the feeling when we return. Mr Babbel will ensure that next season. wendybr, Carns, Cynth and 1 other 4 Link to comment
