Good luck with your endeavours.
Said during the Asian Cup that we should take a leaf out of the Iran supporters. Simple, yet effective. And without the cringe.

One of the most challenging tasks left in Aus football. The most important aspects are to keep it organic. Any FFA involvement is the beginning of the end. The active areas if you have any need to be more relaxed. IT HAS TO BE GENERAL ADMISSION. The stewards still get in those areas and tell you flags down, sit down or your in the wrong seat. FFS. No mexican waves, no bogan fanatics, no mexican waves and definitely no Aussie Aussie Aussie oi oi oi. Keep the chants simple and snappy. Good luck, going to need it.

Active Support for the Australian National Team will never be as good as club level for many reasons. Active support club level in Australia is all for image, show, and who can upload a photo on FB or Instagram and brag about it for days on end. You just need to see Ultras Mentality Australia FB page for proof. These people have no hesitation jumping club to club, using the example of ex-Sydney fc fans (former active members too mind you) and now proud WSW/RBB members, because they are geographically “closer to home”. It’s these same people that do not have the love, the passion to support the Australian National team at the highest level. You ask me why, because they have nothing to gain from it. it’s not cool. Mexican waves are not cool, singing aussie aussie aussie oi oi oi is not cool, but rather embarrassing. Another problem is Australia is too big geographically, active members would be lucky to do a few away trips a year I take it? Why would they to go through the financial hassle of watching Australia be wherever interstate, if they do not care, nor have the passion… they would rather buy the latest clobber to show off. Can you really see a NT, RBB or Cove member standing side by side without their complexes getting in the way? I can’t. That is just my 2 cents, and I am not painting everyone with the same brush, cause there are people that can do both, but that is a very small minority.
Not a Phase, Not a Trend, SYDNEY UNITED till the END!

They did join the Mexican wave however but I don't mind the wave as it does add to the combined participation of the crowd, unlike those who chant oi, oi, oi like it's coming from a swimming carnival.

We need to wave rubber chickens in the air! Pronto! It will be semi-unique!
No rugger tops! No one who even likes rugby allowed in to games! No one who likes AFL allowed in! Just us genuine kulcha football fans!
Kill those who say Aussie Aussie Aussie! The preferred chant will be Oz Football Oz Football Oz Football Si! Si! Si! (they say Si in Madrid, who have kulcha)
More teenagers with heaps of product in their thick black hair! A priority!
I shall not rest until these important changes are implemented! It is vital for the future of football in this country!

Couple of points 1. I thought the name terrace australis was excellent....should continue 2. Don't try to make it too complicated...it's not a club team you see every fortnight so keep it simple 3. As a Socceroo supporter of over 5 decades I can safely say I've heard and seen it all so anything new should be spontaneous 4 get rid of the Union Jack from the flag...should be discarded with the oi oi oi

We are in no way connected to the FFA. 1. Get Permission from the FFA to come on their property and do whatever you feel like. Pretty sure you're not gonna get past point 1

Personally, I think chants in Australia lack so badly because there really aren't any 'player specific' chants. SFC's old Mark Rudan one was fantastic. The Archie one is average at best, but it's not that hard to just pick a catchy song/tune and much around with it until you pull out a great chant. I come up with them weekly, just watch games on TV.

Thanks for you support guys.....
It will be a tough challenge as its a massive education process for a lot of folk....
We will NEVER get Socceroos support to the level of decent club support for a number of reasons-
- People are from different areas - We aren't together often enough to "practise" on a regular basis - Seats, stadiums are different every game - Organisation is much more difficult
What we can do is -
- Educate people about what the home end wants and needs from punters on game day - Close the gap between everyone to become more tight-knit in our way of support (ie Get as many people as we can all on the same page) - Lead by example
