I was born and raise Mt Druitt, then Erskine Park. I'm proud of my Western Sydney upbringing and roots.
Have always thought that as a region we are just as proud of being us as any region in the country, yes even as much as Tasmanians.
I've always believed that if the club could show the state, what we all know, that they have heart, fight, punching above their weight and passion that the fans of the sport would jump on board, like supposedly what will happen when Tassie gets a team.
There is enough Aussie rules fans in Western Sydney to fill Giants Stadium 10 times over. Yet they do the Eurosnob soccer thing of following clubs in Vic.
This club deserves respect, it deserves the following of people who are supposedly proud Western Sydney people.
I've had a rough year and a bit, life wise, as dark as I've been since I lost my parents in my early 20's, and the joy that this club has given me in a rough time I can never repay.
I'm not saying NRL or Soccer fans should start liking the sport, would never expect that. You like what you like.
But how can you be proud of being from Western Sydney loving the sport yet not love this ****ing club with all the heart they show day in and day out, even when they get told by numpties that no one cares.
I have no doubt over time and investment in grass roots that we will build our fan base.
But if you think of yourself as a proud and passionate person from Western Sydney and don't support the club, then **** you. You're full of shit.
