Adventures in Parramatta: Welcome to Wanderland

WHO DO YOU SING FOR? WE SING FOR WANDERERS.

What is that I hear you say? That is the catch cry of the A-League's newest kid on the block - the Western Sydney Wanderers.

With a game scheduled at Parramatta Stadium for 7pm on, what was for most at our work, the last working Friday of 2012, who could resist a group email invitation to my first WSW game.

First we headed off to Parramatta Leagues Club for dinner and drinks before the game in the Firehouse. Nicely done interior and terrace area. A great range of pizzas and tapas to choose from. No cider on tap - which was a bummer, but a nice venue overall.

I have been to a few Sydney FC games since the beginning of the A-League, even one at Parramatta Stadium, but this was something else. This had all of the passion that I was used to an Eels game when the Eels are playing well.

  3. It's amazing to me how many followers this new team has - I think it's great that Western Sydney has its own team now.
