Statement regarding Robbie Middleby

Middleby was unhurt, but was left shaken by the incident and Sydney FC has been taking all possible steps to identify the men involved since the incident.
The cowardly confrontation is completely unacceptable and the club will continue to working closely with SFS management and the FFA to ensure that those responsible are held accountable.
The club will ensure that every avenue of investigation is pursued to identify the culprits, and the strongest possible penalty will be applied once they are found, with the pair facing life bans from all Sydney FC matches and possible legal action.
Sydney FC enjoys a great relationship with its supporters, and will continue to do so into the future despite the behaviour of two individuals who have forfeited the right to call themselves Sydney FC fans.
Sydney thanks its fans for their ongoing support and is urging anyone with any information about the incident to contact the club and assist with the investigation.
