Round 1 - Western Sydney v Sydney FC- 19/10/24

How do people watch this from Europe? My daughter is in Portugal and worried she’ll miss this one

Looks like the Keep-Up YouTube channel has been rebranded as A-Leagues. In most of Europe there’s no local broadcast deal so it should be on there. Germany is an unfortunate exception even though last season the broadcaster only had a deal for 2 or 3 games per round and no on demand… :angry:

Interesting, but I probably prefer that to them dropping prices and basically punishing people that bought early. They must definitely be close to selling out and are cash grabbing for any late surge tonight and on game day.

And, they’ve got to make hay while they can… they won’t get more than 9,000 to any games that don’t involve us.

Simply win. Nothing else is acceptable. Can’t stomach losing to these arrogant pieces of shit.

How many we expecting for tomorrow’s game? 25k?

I reckon even if it technically sells out it’ll be 27k or so. They’d need all their members turning up to get 29-30k you’d think. I feel like a lot of past derbies that haven’t been that close to selling out have been announced as 25-26k even with their whole top tier half empty (probably closer to 20k, if that).

500 tickets left on sale so yeah 27k should be about right which accounts for members and ticket sales being no shows.

Yeah I agree factoring in their pathetic bandwagon fans as well.

Cant wait for the standard " fuck off Sydney Fc" chant once again this season

.

Current available tix.

Can’t wait for the “Stajcic” out chant :smile: :smile:

I’ve noticed that the upper south is all ga and no allocated seating? Do we have a set active bay which is seated then or is it up there somewhere and a bit of a free for all?

So “our” end is the left there (Southern)?
Which is the Cove bay?

Isnt the cove active area southern bottom left?

Ive got my seats up there, says GA but on my ticket theres actually a seat number

Yep this is the first derby where we have been allocated the entire bottom south bays as our designated seats. The upper Southern is just GA but you’d assume a lot of our fans will pack out that area as well mixed in with some WSW fans.

It’ll be way better viewing on TV instead of our fans being tucked away into the corner off camera.

Maybe tell her to go find a bar with the English sport channels, Portugal is full of them, it’s on TNT sport, so I’m sure they would put it on at 10:30am.

That off season felt ridiculously long. I’ve managed to get a crew of 8 from our football team to commit. Most of them are eurosnobs and completely disregard the A league. I hope its loud an absolute cracker.
