+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xNot a bad effort for a club in their 3rd year you must say. To beat Victory in that way shows character. Well done lads. I Just saw this, so the Aleague grand final is going to be a massive sellout? Maybe they should book the MCG for the thousands of WU members to attend? The broadcasters must be so happy. Who are they playing in the final? BTW Carlton SC lost a grand final in their FIRST SEASON .... 3 years later they folded....... just saying.... hahahahahahah I hope the Sticca curse strikes again? Hahahahahaha ill see you at Olympic Village today for a souva or chevapi roll im not sure 🤣 Souva was crap at OV yesterday... First time ever. Hope you enjoyed celebrating with the Floriniotes? Can't believe the bastards got away with that one, with half their team ending up in hospital no less.... Anyway good luck for your GF, hope you guys are still around when pro/rel eventually happens, would love to play away at the fabled Western Wembley. :) Cheers bud i to can't believe how you lost to the northern greeks. Surprised with the souva's normally pretty good almost as good as the eastern greeks at bentleigh. You can sit right next to me at western Wembley my shout 😁 🤣🤣🤣🤣No need to shout mate, I'm sure you'll still be giving away free tickets by then. Hahahahahahaah Anything for free is good yes? And for as long as possible 👍 No not JUST anything mate. You should always look a gift horse in the mouth.... dont want to be stuck with an expensive dying donkey do you? Some of us love to live dangerously. Plus no donkey's in Aust only in Greece Oh there are PLENTY of donkeys in Australia mate..... PLENTY.. No issue with you living dangerously either, your life to live anyway you like I suppose but the trick is not to shit on other people who then, one day, may be in a position to shit on you. Need to follow your own advice mate.

https://wyndham.starweekly.com.au/news/stadium-a-step-closer-2/By Alesha Capone Early works will begin on the future $150 million Wyndham City Stadium in Tarneit next month. More details have also emerged about plans for the residential and commercial area surrounding the stadium, which is being described as “Victoria’s first sports and recreation driven suburb” by the Western Melbourne Group (WMG). WMG is parent company of the Western United Football Club, which will be based at the future Sayers Road stadium. WMG has announced that initial works on the stadium site will start at Leakes Road, around 600 metres west of the Sewells Road intersection, in the week commencing October 25. A “haul road” will be built to allow construction vehicles to access the site, plus upgrades to Leakes Road. The stadium precinct’s concept master plan was submitted to the state government in July for approval, with a residential component including townhouses and high and low-density areas. The plan for the suburb to be built near the stadium includes more than 1000 new homes and over 15 commercial buildings, bordered by Ison Road, Leakes Road and the future Sayers Road extension. A convention and business centre, with meeting facilities for groups of between four to 400 people, is being proposed as part of the plan. In addition, the suburb will have shops, restaurants, education campuses, car parking, hotels, health facilities, a sports science centre, entertainment spaces and a 5000-seat elite training facility. WMG chairman Jason Sourasis said the project “is the first of its kind in our country”. “In addition to the sporting legacy, our project gives the west of Melbourne a social and economic boost, which is much needed in these challenging times,” he said. Earlier this month, Wyndham council called on the state government to fast-track construction of the proposed Sayers Road train station, to service the future stadium and suburb. The state government has previously said it will build the train station, which is expected to be completed by 2027, but has not committed any money to the project. Cr Mia Shaw said most major stadiums across the world have a train station nearby, which are used by thousands of people every year.

By the time they start building in 2024 or thereabouts, I doubt $150 million will still be enough to pay for an elite 5000 seat training facility.
With 1,000 dwellings on the site, there would have to be a margin of $150,000 per dwelling to cover the cost of the training facility - which might be doable.
They'll then also have the convention centre, pay car parks and other commercial buildings to bring in a long term return.
Having said that, it's hard to picture a convention centre out at the back of Werribee as being a winner.

The haul road has already been built and the (*cough *cough) now 8k training stadium will be finished in 11 months from now. hahahahahahah They may be delayed slightly as they are having to also build a trophy cabinet for their silverware and plans have not yet been approved on that either :)

+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xCaroline Springs doesn't work because the team is not the Geelong bid, not called Geelong either way and that is an Afl region, out n'out. The haters will hate. That's life I guess. You do realise that Caroline Springs is in Melbourne, very close to Tarneit, and nothing at all to do with Geelong don't you? Geelong never embraced WU because they had their own bid. Caroline Springs have no excuse to not support WU. Caroline Springs are closer to Ballarat then Geelong and are a suburb of Melbourne's West as is Tarneit. Actually the same distance as Ballarat, they are west so why have they not embrased WU? Like to hear from someone from Caroline Springs. I live just down the road. I was never likely to support them anyway, but what reason would you have? They have played 1 game closer than City or Victory already play. Most of their other games they play further away. If one day they do actually get their act together maybe they'll get support there, but their first two years I would think they'd have lost support rather than gained. You have a point there. With that training ground that will fit 5k, they at least can lay down roots on they're patch of land and people will notice they settled and not constantly moving around and those in the West or S/W may choose to become fans. But a training/council pitch with 300 seats and only 5k capacity is not considered "Aleague worthy" surely? What about the corporate suites, lighting and broadcasting facilities? Its not even good enough for the proposed NSD...... Curious, where did you read that it will only have 300 seats? Everywhere I've read recently states that the grandstand at the training ground will have 5k seated. https://wyndham.starweekly.com.au/news/stadium-a-step-closer-3/Agree, everywhere states 5k seated but the only image I have seen as per below suggests otherwise?  I think that's an older one. This is the image they have been using in the press this year:  OK fair enough, still dont think that stand would hold 5k but... OK I guess well be able to see when the plans are loaded up on council website as to what they are actually building? If a stand goes the full length of the pitch, 105m, then you can fit 175 seats per row ie 0.6m average per seat. That makes allowance for aisles etc. So assuming there are 29 rows that should hit the mark.... Might get pretty windy for the fans in Row 29 though :) But not even the spin is claiming 5000 seats anymore 3 sides of the ground is open terrace After claiming their maiden A-League Men championship on Saturday night, chief executive Chris Pehlivanis flagged United would make their small training stadium their home ground for the 2023-24 season, with plans for a "main stadium" two years later.

What's happened to the "value capture " model?? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-11-27/value-capture-helps-a-league-team-western-united-build-a-stadium/12902252And who will own the stadium?? If government built. Wasn't the the point of difference that the club will be the actual owner of the football stadium?? https://www.thestadiumbusiness.com/2021/09/23/western-united-set-to-begin-work-on-new-a-league-stadium/" The development is set to be the first major sports stadium owned by a professional football club in Australia."

Good questions, looking at the press release, they are talking about a variety of sports using the facility (as in the whole sporting precinct), so that sort of sounds like it will be council/government owned. It's a bit unclear.

The key point here is that the bid was all about being the first club to own its own stadium, and that was a major point of difference with Team 11.
Oh, and what do you know, Melbourne City is going to end up using Casey Fields.
Well fancy that! What a coincidence. City must have been so upset when Team 11 didn't get up.

These guys are unreal.... I mean seriously they are laughing their asses off at all the APL clowns and nobody is saying boo... Whats the bet that after the Nov state elections, before Adolf Guy and the LNP even finish licking their wounds, WU will announce that the AFL is funding their stadium and it be will oval shaped with a helipad and a swimming pool...... I used to pity their few fans as not knowing any better but now I think, fuck them they deserve everything that is coming, if they are dumb enough to swallow this bullshit.

A gentle reminder - this is amazing thinking back. I thought at one stage they even said that they might even be able to some late season games towards the end of their second season in the comp, but I wasn't sure, so I don't raise, but have a read of this and have a hearty laugh. A construction time of 20 months!!

We've been trying for years to gain state and local governments to support and hopefully fund our game of football and now that we have some commitment the haters come out and shit can. I guess their own little hidden agenda's cut to deep. Lol.

I guess their own little hidden agenda's cut to deep. Lol. Obviously the more funds flowing into our game the better. However this has nothing to do with football. It's just an opposition political party fishing for votes before an election. Hard to say how much difference it will make, as the west is pretty much dominated by Labor. I guess we'll find out soon enough. It will be interesting to see where WU will find the funds if the Libs don't win.

I tend to think this shows just how the public comments by WMG/WU have not aligned with what the reality is behind the scenes. The need for transparency when trying to get people to be fans and put their money into memberships and commitment of time needs to be far better.
They have continued to try and say that the stadium will be built soon but this announcement shows the level of work going on to secure funding. With the odds of the Libs getting in to government not looking promising, it doesn’t give much confidence unless Labor also come to the party.
Are the council are building/funding the training centre? If so, what has WMG/WU contributed to that? So far, it’s big dreams but appears to be a lack of funding to get things moving.

At least when Qatar had a successful bud and then changed everything they won the bud on after, we knew it was blatant corruption.
With this it’s lunacy if the FFA didn’t have a clause penalising then for this absolute shit show if they didn’t fulfill their promises.
