OT: Parra Stadium sharing

They'll last 5 minutes.

As long as they don't ever get to put up a statue, then they can make cosmetic changes all they like. Only idiots who attend these stupid games will care.

But in terms of being allowed to make changes - what happens if the proposed bump to 40k+ happens and several Sydney teams move to Parra? Will the Tigers, Panthers and Dogs get a say in the stand names?

They may well do.

Maybe we will have the Steve Mortimer Stand or Larry Corrowa Stand.

Maybe we'll be moving to Homebush Stadium anyway, so it'll all be academic? :sarcasm:

WHEN the Western Sydney Wanderers play their inaugural A-League match at Parramatta Stadium in October, don't expect to see rugby league legend Ray Price in the stands - and you might not see his famous statue out the front, either.
That's because the Wanderers are considering covering up Price's statue on match days as part of a plan to lessen the feeling that Parramatta Stadium is a rugby league venue and make football fans more ''at home''.
Exactly how the statue of Price - known during his playing days as Mr Perpetual Motion - will be obscured from public view remains unclear, and Football Federation Australia, which owns the club, has not officially decided whether or not to go ahead with the controversial plan.

I wish the Wanderers well and they'll do better than GWS but they are going about this the wrong way tbqh.

I forgot the A-League still existed, and that's the first I've heard of a team in Parra.

They should make a soccer statue of some skinny little jerkoff diving onto the ground holding his leg.

I was thinking of supporting WSW and attending games. That changed today. Good luck to them and I hope they come to their senses. At this stage they should be trying to get more fans not alienate fans of other codes.

This won't be happening. It's a sensationalized story designed to get people like you lot worked up. It does neither code any favours.
