    Spira was named in the original squad, but he's probably been substituted given he wouldn't be available to play in QF or SF.

    Substituted to make way for Troisi? ;)

    Apparently 13k tickets have been sold. Like the players, I too would love this number to increase.

     

    No doubt they're going to need it!

    Its our last chance to see WSW play in Oz until at least mid September.

     

    Everyone that can should be getting to Wanderland on Wednesday night to support our lads. 

     

    16k - 18k would be great.  :clapping:

    Yep, West Asia this year.

    I always thought it was done for logistics purposes rather than an actual preseason hit out, you know to figure/trial out training methods and minimise travel costs on the road which was done in the first year, so reason to do it in the second year?

    Preparation for the West Asian opponent we'll face in the ACL final?

    Plus their season starts mid September so there might be good clubs wanting pre season games.

    After Wednesdays game, our squad travel to China (prob Sunday/Monday) to play the 2nd leg of ACL QF on 27th August.

    From there, the squad are flying to Dubai (not sure if thats the final destination) & have been invited to play 2 friendlies in early September, one of which is against the champions of Bahrain. Not sure of the other opponent.

    IF we make ACL SF our squad would fly direct to Korea in preparation for the 1st leg away on 16/9 or 17/9.

    They then return home to play the 2nd leg on 30/9 or 1/10.

    Spot on. :good:

    Not sure. Santalab's words, not mine:http://www.wswanderersfc.com.au/video/wanderers-v-evergande---poljak-and-santalab/954287?camefrom=EMCL_365990_16762612

    Although it would be nice if it didn't include the tourists.. 17k sounds delightful :)

    Very humiliating already for the NRL considering the 6k crowds they have had in the last few weeks.

    Wanderers v Evergrande | Preview
    kwabena-appiah_14av6uk1fhh7g1lhhqz3e2mw7
    Be there as the Wanderers take on the Champions of Asia
    Sunday, 17 August 2014 - 
    Western Sydney Wanderers take on Guangzhou Evergrande this Wednesday night at Parramatta Stadium in a Quarter Final first leg of the AFC Champions League.

    Arguably the biggest match in the Club’s short history, the Wanderers take on not only the reigning champions of the ACL but a club whose stocks have risen significantly over recent years.

     

    Since the arrival of Italian World Cup winning coach Marcello Lippi in May 2012 Evergrande have been almost unstoppable in their domestic competition where they currently sit at the top of the Chinese Super League ladder.

     

    Evergrande boast a roster that includes a host of stars including captain Zheng Zhi, Italians Alessandro Diamanti and Alberto Gilardino and Brazilian forward Elkeson.

    With the Wanderers squad set to introduce new Brazilian signing Vitor Saba to the mix and see Mateo Poljak take his place in the midfield after missing out on the group stages, Wanderers Head Coach Tony Popovic knows the task ahead will be a challenging one.

     

    "They have got the resources, they have got the players, they have got the coach and they want to be the best and they proved that last year. It will be a huge challenge coming off a pre-season and playing against such a heavyweight," said Popovic.

     

    "On the other hand, that's something you expect when you're among the best eight teams in Asia; that you're going to have to play a great side to get through. It's a huge challenge but one we are really looking forward to. I think the club is embracing it and I think our fans will embrace it as well.

     

    "We showed against the Japanese champions that we can handle pressure against a top opponent and this is another one. We expected it to be tough regardless of whom we got. We have got the very best and we want to see how we match up against them."

     

    The match against Asian Champions, Guangzhou Evergrande will see the first leg played at Parramatta Stadium this Wednesday 20 August followed by the away leg in China on Wednesday 27 August.

    Guangzhou Evergrande arrive in Sydney tonight ahead of the match on Wednesday night at Parramatta Stadium kicking off at 7.30pm.

      2023/23 A-League Men Attendances

      By Davo · Posted

      Total attendance was basically flat (0.4% up). Biggest improvers were the Jets, with their average attendance up 22% on last year, and the Bulls, up 17%. While admittedly starting from a low base, I'd rather see the smaller teams growing than the bigger ones pulling further away. WU still lagging behind and only growing by 3%, so pretty much nothing. Maybe the new stadium will help. All teams grew except for Sydney, us, and Adelaide. Adelaide only dropped 1% and given the garbage they've dished up on the field that isn't too bad. We also dropped by 1%, which could probably be explained by the RBB boycott alone, so nothing much to report. Sydney is weird. They dropped 17% on their average from last year. I'm guessing it's a combination of the new stadium bounce last season and some bigger home derbies (this season they added up to 54,307 vs 60,694 last season). Also if you remove the home derbies from the Sydney and Melbourne teams their averages look like this: Sydney - 12,175 Victory - 11,570 WSW - 9,121 City - 5,780

      So now the season is over and it looks like we are stuck with Rudan, when does the club start announcing players that are leaving or resigning? I noticed most other clubs out of the semis (and some even in the semis) have already been announcing them? Will be interesting to see how many stick around now both players and staff. I hear there has already been 2 casualties in regards to the staff

      It was a red, there was nothing accidental about it, if you don't want to get sent off then don't do it. He did it to provoke a reaction, he got one from the ref
