Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player.
THEY'VE had dirty tricks in China, and now the Wanderers fear fowl play in Morocco.
To say the Western Sydney players have been underwhelmed with the food in their hotel in Rabat at the Club World Cup would be an understatement, but one meal in particular left stomachs turned.
Slices cut from a cooked chicken proved as pink in the centre as the Mariners' annual charity strip, and reserve goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis saw pink and went green.
Luckily other players also left the poultry untouched and - at the time of writing - none had been struck down.

Lederer takes one for the team
FIFA provide 35 business class flights for clubs involved in the Club World Cup, and there were plenty of gleeful looks among staff used to the strictures of economy class.
But in total the Western Sydney party has mustered 36, so who was the unlucky member not to be on the FIFA gravy train?
Fortunately it was the man most able to afford the costly airfare himself... chairman and majority owner Paul Lederer.
Chairman keeps Wanderers in focus
Dundee United chairman Stephen Thompson is in talks to take over Newcastle - or could the chairman of the Scottish Premier League side be wanting to make a film about the Wanderers?
Having watched Adelaide beat Western Sydney last Saturday, Thompson flew to Sydney with the Wanderers party - and spent most of it deep in conversation with the club's cameraman. John Cusack is already favourite to play Tony Popovic.

Sasa Ognenovski was spotted in the stands at Pirtek Stadium during Western Sydney's loss to Brisbane Roar last week and we hear it's not the first time the Sydney FC defender has been seen taking in a game at his rival's fortress.
Given there is no love lost between the Wanderers and Ognenovski, it seems a curious choice of venue for him to spend his downtime at.
It's a credit to Wanderers fans that by all accounts there have been no 'boos' directed his way.
Veteran chases new home
Daniel McBreen is shopping around for a new club. The 37-year-old has spent the last season at Chinese Super League side Shanghai Dongya after transferring from the Central Coast Mariners, but he only penned a one-season deal with the club.
First, though, McBreen has a more pressing matter to attend to - the striker tied the knot on Thursday. Congrats!

Corey Gameiro has undergone successful knee surgery on his ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, but the young Sydney FC striker now faces a lengthy rehabilitation process.
To bide his time, Gameiro plans to jump to the other side - this side - and do some media work.
Best he steers clear of those marble floors at Fox Sports though.
Owusu embraces new role
Lloyd Owusu is also branching out into new ventures.
Footballer, coach, player consultant, model... now actor. That's how Sydney FC's football community manager and current Hakoah Sydney City player describes himself on Twitter.
Owusu will make his acting debut next month in a show called Danger 5.
