ye they didnt include the 550 season passes and the under 16's dont know why.
I have photos ill upload tomorrow for all the malakes like fnsw lol who say 400.
Biggest crowd in the NSWPL season to date and best atmosphere by far.
Good to see the players ackowledge all the hard word to come over, warm down next to us and well down to DOU-DOU-DOUMANS for coming and sitting with the ULTRAS today.
Kimon Taliadoros and Bonita Mersiades were in the crowd today, but in all honestly the weather and rain killed us.
The football sack guys were in the corporate boxes smashing down souvlakia and drinks and had sydney city hakoa stickers all over them.
Good game today Wollongong put up and a fight and the equaliser made the game a contest. The pitch was first class and the new strips are aboslutely awesome.
Great Day all round apart from the rain and cold

the old admin who talks to himself on the other forum this is his match report:
The weather did it's best to dampen the enthusiasm on the return to Belmore, but the 3points against the Wolves was enough to warm the Olympic faithful.
Despite the temporary inconvenience of not having the grandstand shield some of the wind and rain, most were in a positive mindset with the return home.
Olympic were to run into a strong headwind in the first half.
Hardly had 2minutes elapsed that C.Triantis was brought down on the edge of the penalty spot, and as down a few times this year - Makrys made no mistake with the spot kick to put Olympic into the lead.
It was tough at times to control the ball but the play was generally good with plenty of movement on the flanks from both C.Triantis and Angel.
Some attempted shots on goal did go astray however Olympic was showing the better of possession.
Unfortunately a lapse in defence midway through the first half had an unmarked Wolves player Picciolini inside the 6yard box cleanly header a cross past Henderson to bring the visitors level.
Olympic couldn't capitalise any of some other chances in the first half, with headers from Smith & Luksic failing to hit the target.
The second half couldn't come around quick enough for the shivering spectators and with the wind behind Olympic, many thought it would be a matter of time before the home team hit the lead.
Angel was again dangerous down the left, and with some nice overlapping runs was keeping the pressure on.
There was a moment when all Olympic supporters held their breathe when a counterattacking move from SouthCoast left Henderson exposed and beaten by a curling shot however the ball hit the upright and played into his safe hands.
Olympic still managed to dominate with the wind and Angel's flair and combination with Bamber paid dividends as Angel's overlap was cut back to Bamber whose neatly placed first touch beat the Wolves keeper and put Olympic into the lead.
As the match wore on the number of long range shots all seemed to miss the goal posts, some by large distances.
Substitutions were made by both coaches however neither could affect the scoreline further.
The clock wound down to the cheers of the home crowd with the first home win warming the mood of all involved at Belmore.
As news filtered through that Sutherland lost to Blacktown, a margin with the 2nd placed team had increased.
This now sets up an interesting next home game with Blacktown who have been advancing quietly in the background up the ladder.
From the initial encounter in Rd2, they have improved and with a point to prove.
A more complete squad will be available come next week and with the best surface in the NSWPL, hopefully a nice sunny day to entice further supporters to attend and watch a winning team.

Olympic secure a 4 point Lead defeating South Coast Wolves
posted by on June 13, 2011
Olympic have secured their title as NSWPL frontrunners, defeating South Coast Wolves 2-1 in their first home game of the season. Olympic are now four points ahead of 2nd place Sutherland Sharks, on twenty-six points.
Seven hundred plus supporters surrounded Belmore Sports Ground on a wet and windy afternoon and were treated to a nail biting fixture. In the opening minutes of the game, a penalty was issued against Wolves player Jake Keating whose challenge against Sydney Olympics’ Chris Triantis was reprimanded by referee James Lewis. Phil Makrys stepped up to the penalty spot and calmly and successfully put the ball at the back at the net, providing Olympic with a 1 nil lead.
With Wolves playmaker Sasho Petrovski in the stands, Coach Trevor Morgan relied upon his youthful side to pressure the ‘Blues’. In the 24’ minute, Picciolini secured the equaliser for the Wolves, with a well-placed header that went by Olympic goalkeeper Paul Henderson. Olympic began their counter-attack with winger Will Angel constantly pressuring the Wolves’ defence forcing Wolves’ goalkeeper Brody Crane into a frantic save. The resulting corner, almost led to another goal for Olympic with Luksic’s header unfortunately missing the target.
Olympic playing with their new impressive strips continued to dominate for the remaining minutes of the half, yet the score line remained unchanged. The Wolves opened up the 2nd half and almost took the lead once more through the efforts of Picciolini whose strike went past Henderson and hit the post. This strike, would prove to be one of the Wolves’ final attempts at goal, as Olympic continued to penetrate the Wolves defence once more through Angel who constantly pressured defender Jacob Timpano firing various attempts at goal.
In the 60th minute, Olympic were granted a well-deserved lead courtesy of a Tod Bamber strike, yet Olympic did not become complacent continuing their dominance. Chris Triantis was once more at the centre of the action fouled by opposing player David Abel, who received a yellow for his careless tackle. Olympics’ defence were instrumental also in attack, with defenders Manny Giannaros and Jerry Kalouris pushing forward throughout the second half to pressure the Wolves’ unstable defence. Kalouris’s brilliant 30 yard strike narrowly missed bringing the ‘Blues’ supporters to their feet.
Wolves’ Coach Trevor Morgan, looked at substitutes Martinovski and Samet Kaynak to search for a late equaliser, however Olympics’ defence was once more impenetrable. In the under 20’s fixture, Sydney Olympic FC defeated South Coast Wolves 3 nil.
