I can see what they've tried to do with the logo but I'm not a fan of it. It seems overly simple yet messy in the middle. I don't know, I'm just not a fan of the logo.

The kit and name I like though.

Agree.. Logo is quite horrid!

Is it just me, or is the Wanderers kit a dead-set ripoff of the North Sydney Bear jerseys.......

I have to say the away kit is very similar to the much hated US home kit.

Interesting to note that apparently the kit manufacturer's logo (according to existing FFA rules) is supposed to be in the center of the jersey with the HAL logo on one side and the team logo on the other.. I suppose these guys can do what they want since they're owned by the FFA.. lol

Pretty sure you'll find that our kit manufacturer's logo is on the shoulder......

Correct.. I think I wrote that post the wrong way around.. What I was meaning is that the two spots on the chest are usually reserved for the HAL Logo on one side and the Club logo on the other..

Western Wanderers members to have say in direction of young club

FOUNDATION members of the Western Sydney Wanderers will be given the chance to elect two members of the club's board and influence the new boys' strategy directly.

The Wanderers' first membership packages go on sale today, with prices starting at $195 for an adult season ticket and $390 for a family, taking in all 13 home games and youth and W-League fixtures.
All members will have the right to nominate two members of the board, to be elected each year possibly at a club AGM, out of seven directors, including executive chairman Lyall Gorman.
It's believed no other A-League club has such direct fan representation, though Adelaide have three member-elected representatives on a management committee that reports to the board.
"What we're doing with the elected members of the board is consistent with our philosophy that the club is powered by the people," Gorman said. "It's an indication of our absolute commitment to the people of west Sydney, that they get a say in the running of the club."
Memberships come in red, black and white - with red the most expensive at $312 per adult and $799 for a family. There is also facility to secure a seat in the Red and Black Bloc, an emerging fans group that aims to rival Sydney FC's Cove.

That's not a bad initiative IMO.

Getting some decent numbers for their preseason games - over 4,000 last night!

ComradeRoar · « **Reply #51 on:** August 09, 2012, 05:12:51 PM »

So WSW are ticking all the boxes;

Community engagement
Good Preseason attendance
Flash Kit
Nice logo
Nice name
1500 ST's sold at pre-season games thus far (2)

BUT!

They are referring to themselves as the 'NRMA Insurance Western Sydney Wanderers'. What. The. f**k.

Please sweet baby jesus don't ever ever ever let us be called 'The Coffee Club Brisbane Roar F.C.' or the 'The Linglong Tyres B.R.F.C.'

You might have to scratch that now.

NO BIG EGOS HERE

A former Gold Coast United player was shunned by new A-League club West Sydney Wanderers because of the "no dickheads" policy the franchise has borrowed from AFL heavyweights Sydney Swans.

In Brisbane last week for a training camp and a trial match against local club Wolves, the Wanderers are desperate to make a good impression in their first season in the national competition. As a result, they opted against signing a player who talks it up but rarely produced on the field during his time on the Coast

dave_saves · « **Reply #57 on:** September 03, 2012, 10:44:33 AM »

To be fair, that could be anyone from Gold Coast United, including Miron Blieberg and Clive Palmer.

Orange Emperoar · « **Reply #58 on:** September 03, 2012, 11:35:11 AM »

Thwaite (already signed, but still a dickhead), Culina, Rees, Porter,...

Rabbit · « **Reply #59 on:** September 03, 2012, 11:36:16 AM »

Pretty sure Tahj was signed up about a month ago
