Had a quiet word to the guys at Talkin' Sport on 2SM...Gavin Robertson (a key figure in the Skoda Fails set-up) was surprised and very complimentary.

He's okay...he actually had a pretty tough run after his cricket career went bung. He's gotta earn a living I guess, and unlike his old xenophobe mate he actually understands what the Wanderers have done and can appreciate football as a sport and not some kind of Dept of Immigration conspiracy.

Fair enough

Just think of all the people that may get supporter memberships now. Seeing as it is such a good deal maybe we could hit 16 500

Prior to memberships goin on sale I predicted we would do well to have 12,500 full members this season.

This result is amazing. Well done to everyone involved

here's the poll we did a while back with our predictions http://www.westsydneyfootball.com/topic/4442-membership-numbers-poll/

here's the poll we did a while back with our predictions http://www.westsydneyfootball.com/topic/4442-membership-numbers-poll/

So, the co-winners were the "12-12,500 members" and the "1 million members" options.

LOLworthy

"...and you might find yourself humming ‘We’re from the streets of Western Sydney’ to yourself at the strangest of times..."

Dammit, that was me today

Seriously though (English student rambling ahead), the lyrical structure of the verses is fantastic. Really balanced and regular patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables, it's pretty much poetry.

And the reason it works so well, and the reason I can still pretty much hear the words waaaay over in Bay 5 where I sit is the lyrical structure.

I'd go in depth but... actually I might go in depth later on about why it's one of my favourite chants. I'm pretty sure it has a tune, but my recollections are mostly from the RBB on match-day just chanting - and... yeah. It just sounds great.

Why? Lyrical structure. Groups of stressed and unstressed syllables, and regular patterns of these.
