Fuck Vesh, whatever side of any argument he’s on is the wrong one.

Yeh maybe that cunt can make up some quotes from a fake Socceroo about it?
The good one, the OG before they had 100 members.
Wait… that was the same person as “we should sign Benjamin Totori”?
Would like to see the the kit worn an extra round for each fuckwit comment.
I could be wrong (almost certainly) but the fake Socceroo guy used to post on here before being exiled for being a knob. I’m putting two and two together.
Pretty sure vesh was the totori guy
Yes he was.
Did we have a fake Socceroo guy?
Some dude with a terrible blog either completely made up, or did zero background, had a bunch of quotes from an “ex-socceroo” about something or other to back up his absolutely terrible shit take. It took about 3 seconds for people to call him out, before a terrible grovelling apology and deletion. I’m pretty sure it was vesh, but happy to be proven wrong.
He was never the same after we never signed Totori.
Just to follow up on this, Cashrewards eventually responded to my enquiry about why the reward for my UA purchase was declined.
They provided a list of common reason for declines, including:
• Having opened other web pages (including search sites, social media, or other store sites) or web browsers whilst visiting the store;
• Clicking through to another page from a banner or ad on the store’s web page whilst shopping;
• AdBlock/Antivirus/cleanup application tasks may remove tracking cookies (which are required to track transactions).
• Use of a coupon code not listed on Cashrewards.
Reading through that list, I reckon it was likely my adblocker (which makes sense). I didn’t even think to check, even though I kinda knew how they want to track this purchase via my cookies.
Oh well, lesson learned for next time. I should whitelist Cashrewards in my adblocker’s config if I’m ever going to use them again.
You’d think that they’d have some sort of detection script for adblockers and pop some kind of message saying “hey, just so you know, your adblocker might impact our ability to track this…”, but alas…
Bugger - thanks for sharing, lesson learned! I have the Qantas shopping extension installed and it definitely warns me if the adblocker is still active, but I mostly do Cashrewards through the phone app.
If anyone’s interested, Under Armour online store have a -40% discount on some current season Sydney FC gear. Mostly training/lifestyle items, but the hi-vis yellow GK jersey is discounted, too.
On matchwornshirts.com you can bid on the original and signed players jerseys. Auction running until wednesday
Some of those prices seem pretty reasonable actually. Is this a regular auction? I wouldn’t mind picking up match worn sky blue shirt one day
Sydney FC isn‘t featured too often. Usually lots of french clubs, some english, Dinamo Zagreb, Club America and som other Mexicans usually
They’re taking some liberties with “match worn” though, as it includes bench players that were unused subs (Sotirio, Hoefsloot etc.)
You can get a numbered, signed and worn Caceras for 66 bucks atm. That’s like half the price of buying a new shirt. Shame all of the players are skinny bastards and I would definitely not fit into their shirt
On Gus, Jaush and Will it pretty clearly has “Issued” instead of “Worn” on the image and “This is a match-issued product. It was prepared for the match, but not used. However, the shirts may have traces of use, as some players use them for warm-up sessions as well.” on the page.
I have Shannon Cole’s shirt from what was my 100th match attended, he scored a screamer in a 1-1 draw with the Fury. Can confirm even when 15 kegs lighter I could barely get an arm in there and as such it was only ever worn by a lady friend or 2.
