What is the team called? Sydney Rovers? Where will the team play? Do people in the West even know what’s happening with the club?

Even a website that does not even work is an sign of money under the table for the men behind football Australia.

The Western Suburbs team will enter the A League in the 2011 season, and yet they have not branded the franchise at all. They better get started as quick as possible or they will struggle to pull 2,000 fans at games, if that.

The NSW Premier League is the main competition for football fans in the West of Sydney and it will remain like that.

Yes, the occasional trip to a Sydney FC match is good, but what are they playing at with this team for the West of Sydney? Will they even have players from the suburbs or will they sign out of form fringe players from the A League and fourth division English football?

If they want to start, they should start now.

First, choose a name that actually has something to do with the Suburbs. What in God’s name is Sydney Rovers? It isn’t that bad but why are the club colors red and black?

Get a website up and running, and interact with the public because they are the target for this franchise.

Or are they?

I think the team should represent the West and it should consist of the best players from the teams from the West in the NSW Premier League. It can be the origin club for these boys.

We don’t want any players from Brisbane or Adelaide.

The Western Sydney club should represent the best from the West.
