+x+x+x+x[quote]Seems to me that Western United needed better poltical connections, that's how you get infrastructure built in sport anywhere in the world Australia included. Be it the eggball codes or football you have to cozy up to the pollies. Those developer blokes needed to make more significant contributions to whatever political party could help them up. Looks like they're cheap because they got a 1,500 capacity training paddock in the middle of fucking nowhere. Heh. Pre-Covid, I remember hearing a rumour from someone at Wyndham who indicated that the big hurdle with the big-boy stadium was that WMG changed their plans and wanted to build it last. From what I understand, originally when they won the bid there was one (or more) sugar-daddies that were going to bank roll everything. Then one (or more) walked away from the whole thing. WMG then decided that the only way they could fund the stadium was to build the commercial and residential buildings within the precinct first as these are quicker to build and would bring in way more money sooner. The council however, said nope, you build the stadium first as per the free land deal. I'm not sure where the training facility ties in with everything, but I'm to understand that it is government owned, built and operated. WU will just be a tenant. They also got the Libs involved in a feeble attempt to secure some government funding, but that was going to require the Libs winning which was never going to happen in that state election. I really doubt the main stadium will ever get built. If it does, it will almost definitely by state owned. Nothing wrong with that, it's just not the privately-owned stadium they promised. I feel for Duva and the Team 11 bid. They had a commitment from Labour to build a stadium pending inclusion.... LOL. Bullshit. 100% wrong. There was no funds for Dandenong stadium and no election promises from any potential government. the FFA would have supported the Dandneong bad had this been true. You claim Western United have lied, bullshitted their way through it all, etc. But the stuff you say is less truthful (or your memory is cactus). https://wwos.nine.com.au/football/team-11-a-league-bid-hinges-on-vic-govt/617d31f3-cf78-4921-b465-9eae501af61bhttps://www.9news.com.au/national/new-melbourne-stadium-in-dandenong-for-a-league-team/21369a2a-1f7a-40c9-b9f3-d252f2c2d5d8https://www.ftbl.com.au/news/football-is-booming-team-11-secures-23-million-for-elite-facility-490897

+x+x+x+x+x+x+xSo are they going bust or not? Let's forget all the bullshit With a CFG logo on your crest bud I wouldn't go round talking about bullshit :) I just follow football I could care less about the off field bullshit.fucking suits shouldn't even know their names Oh fucking hell fuck me dead in the face You are Australian A new acronym! FMDITF. Nice work! Aha man, of all the Americanisms I hear this is the one I hate the most. It's just SO STUPID! Sorry MCG but fuck me dead in the fucking face with a spade I know there's a lot of fun and politics and you guys might be older then mem but I just wanna follow football and have a beer. I don't care about board room rumors or president's statements. Following this sport is a bloody chore sometimes Did you not understand my point? If the saying was "I could care less" it would mean the exact opposite of what you intended it to mean. PS I actually agree that I like to watch football not read about administrators but also you are totally sucked in by media talking points

+x+x+x+x+x+x+xIt's well documented that it wasn't about the money. Look at the Macarthur situation, the original bidder was asked to match the highest offer, and he politely declined, but still won the bid. In Melbourne, there were three things at play: - South Melbourne were not going to get the liicense full stop (despite having the best bid by miles) - both Melbourne clubs lobbied hard in favour of WU (and it's pretty obvious why they did that) - you have the con job perpetrated by WU. Only point I'd slightly change mate is that I seem to remember that fruit shop guy from Victory was more talking up the Team 11 bid over WU .. WMG wasn't even a blip on the radar until the last 2-3 weeks really..... People still thought it was that bullshit Geelong Patriots bid from memory..... I don't remember any existing club talking about a preference of bids. Only chatter of protecting "their patch". WU bid was a late move from the Victoria Patriots project by Horvat who tried to get the paparazzi photographe involved. Was never getting up. Then Lou Sticca got involved and your Greek mates had some investment fund money to throw away. 😉 And they flashed the cash like wogs on a night out at Chasers in the 90's. And the rest is history. Hahahahah I NEVER saw these meatball wankers at Delirium on Sundays.... NEVER..... Also the "Greek mates": jumped on later when the Probuild dildos went belly up and Sticca went running for the hills when he realised there was "no cash here...." BTW I had forgotten that ol Mozza Bisetto was the president (board member?) of newly promoted Moreland SC and saw him, pissed as a fart at Lakeside last night... He was getting uppity when they scored first and things turned hilarious when we won... Poor c#nt must have been pissed properly coz he asked 3 different people if they knew who he was? hahahahah Funniest line was a calm South supporter asking him how it feels to have not been able to build either Moreland OR WU a stadium... hahahahahah love the NPL. Oh well at least one of the WMG got to live out their fantasy and witness a game at the mighty Lakeside.... https://twitter.com/morelandcityfc/status/1023344080896458752?cxt=HHwWgICojaGB07McAAAA Probuild sponsored first year. Sticca tried to get them involved first year through the Andrew Zinni connection. They obviously wanted them to buy in and build stadium for them. I assume the $$$ didn't stack up. Probuild went bust a year or two later. Bissetto. What a clown. Heard him getting pissed was a regular occurrence in the WU corporate rooms. The guys running it their were making a motza on their salaries. Doing bugger all from the looks of it. They certainly are a funny bunch... Low class people all the way. To be completely fair to them ALL, its boy's own fantasy shit I get it... Bunch of soccer mad wogs wanna run a football club of their own (shit who hasn't fantasised about that with their mates,). The fact that they were able to leverage that off a corrupt AND inept FFA and also get in bed with an equally as dodgy council to pull it off reeks. When this goes belly up eventually none of these blokes will lose too much off it and all they'l leave behind is a (thankfully very small) number of disillusioned football fans. I was initially pissed at how they are portrayed as the "future of Australian soccer" but now just laugh and think good luck to them... I can't wait to see what Cinderella stories the 4 new franchises will bring the APL..... I think they'll also leave behind a conga line of investors wondering where their returns are on the property deal. These guys definitely weren't playing with their own money. Got a feeling the end is nigh. Unless there is more investment funds found soon. I've said it before. They are the Carlton SC of the A-league. They just went one better and won the GF. Who is/was worse though in your opinion, Carlton or WU?

I wonder if Gallop was really THAT gullible or something else tipped him over the line???? Hmmm I wonder? The metamorphosis from a Geelong based bid called "Victoria Patriots" (yes, we all remember that one well), to a Tarneit-based bid, with some sort of land deal with the local council all happened quite quick, I reckon within the space of 3 or 4 months. Given that to this day, the foreign based property developers remain anonymous, we can all be assured that whatever went down, there was no shortage of back office shenanigans and greasing of palms. Why does the "foreign based developers" keep coming up as part of this group. As far as I know and am aware there are no foreign developers involved in the WMG consortium. If they did, then I'd assume they'll have some serious capital to start developing. They have definitely been trying to get other parties involved and investing in it over the years. Why has this been brought up again? Is it out there somewhere that there is a foreign interest in the group? I have never seen or heard any firm info about a foreign party involved.

I wonder if Gallop was really THAT gullible or something else tipped him over the line???? Hmmm I wonder? FFA should've put a few more rules around the inclusion. Venue. $$ spent on squad/staff Training base Probably lost $5-10M per year. Some serious $$$ that should've been utilised better. Now more $$$ being spent on women's team and academy. If this falls over it's not gonna be pretty.

Hahahah well it was the mighty Hellas that stopped Carlton doing that remember :) hahahahahaahahah Best we could do this time around is to make them have travel to Tassie for Home games. Yes I do. Was a decent final. Boutsi was lucky to play that game. 😳😁 Boutsi was lucky not to be picking up soap in the showers at Pentridge :P

+xSeems to me that Western United needed better poltical connections, that's how you get infrastructure built in sport anywhere in the world Australia included. Be it the eggball codes or football you have to cozy up to the pollies. Those developer blokes needed to make more significant contributions to whatever political party could help them up. Looks like they're cheap because they got a 1,500 capacity training paddock in the middle of fucking nowhere. Heh. AHA!!!!! I just realised, maybe that's why they spend so much time down in Tassie...

+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xIt's well documented that it wasn't about the money. Look at the Macarthur situation, the original bidder was asked to match the highest offer, and he politely declined, but still won the bid. In Melbourne, there were three things at play: - South Melbourne were not going to get the liicense full stop (despite having the best bid by miles) - both Melbourne clubs lobbied hard in favour of WU (and it's pretty obvious why they did that) - you have the con job perpetrated by WU. Only point I'd slightly change mate is that I seem to remember that fruit shop guy from Victory was more talking up the Team 11 bid over WU .. WMG wasn't even a blip on the radar until the last 2-3 weeks really..... People still thought it was that bullshit Geelong Patriots bid from memory..... I don't remember any existing club talking about a preference of bids. Only chatter of protecting "their patch". WU bid was a late move from the Victoria Patriots project by Horvat who tried to get the paparazzi photographe involved. Was never getting up. Then Lou Sticca got involved and your Greek mates had some investment fund money to throw away. 😉 And they flashed the cash like wogs on a night out at Chasers in the 90's. And the rest is history. Hahahahah I NEVER saw these meatball wankers at Delirium on Sundays.... NEVER..... Also the "Greek mates": jumped on later when the Probuild dildos went belly up and Sticca went running for the hills when he realised there was "no cash here...." BTW I had forgotten that ol Mozza Bisetto was the president (board member?) of newly promoted Moreland SC and saw him, pissed as a fart at Lakeside last night... He was getting uppity when they scored first and things turned hilarious when we won... Poor c#nt must have been pissed properly coz he asked 3 different people if they knew who he was? hahahahah Funniest line was a calm South supporter asking him how it feels to have not been able to build either Moreland OR WU a stadium... hahahahahah love the NPL. Oh well at least one of the WMG got to live out their fantasy and witness a game at the mighty Lakeside.... https://twitter.com/morelandcityfc/status/1023344080896458752?cxt=HHwWgICojaGB07McAAAA Probuild sponsored first year. Sticca tried to get them involved first year through the Andrew Zinni connection. They obviously wanted them to buy in and build stadium for them. I assume the $$$ didn't stack up. Probuild went bust a year or two later. Bissetto. What a clown. Heard him getting pissed was a regular occurrence in the WU corporate rooms. The guys running it their were making a motza on their salaries. Doing bugger all from the looks of it. They certainly are a funny bunch... Low class people all the way. To be completely fair to them ALL, its boy's own fantasy shit I get it... Bunch of soccer mad wogs wanna run a football club of their own (shit who hasn't fantasised about that with their mates,). The fact that they were able to leverage that off a corrupt AND inept FFA and also get in bed with an equally as dodgy council to pull it off reeks.
