Football Federation Australia has put Western Sydney on notice after their hopes for a flare-free A-League season fell at the first hurdle.After Wanderers fans lit and threw a small number of flares in their 4-0 Sydney derby loss, FFA on Monday issued the club with a show cause notice that will extend - but not trigger - the threat of a three-point deduction until the end of the season.According to the governing body, the Wanderers have accepted the result and will re-double their efforts to maintain crowd decorum for the season ahead.While police were largely comfortable with the crowd behaviour in Saturdays derby, the flares embarrassed club leaders.A letter from figures including chief executive John Tsatsimas, coach Tony Popovic and captain Nikolai Topor-Stanley asked fans to be on their best behaviour this season.As a club we are united to succeed on the pitch and have a flare-free season, the letter read.The Red and Black Blocs restraint lasted less than an hour.A-League chief Greg ORourke said he didnt want to see similar incidents.If theres a recurrence of the incident from last Saturday night ... FFA may well be left with no alternative other than to deduct points from the club, he said.The club will reconnect with their members again this week given a few persons chose to ignore the communication and strong stance against the lighting of flares from John Tsatsimas, Head Coach Tony Popovic and captain Nikolai Topor-Stanley.The Wanderers were originally served the punishment after away fans ignited about 20 flares, as well as crowd-frightening detonators, during a match against Melbourne Victory at Etihad Stadium in February this year.The ban was due to expire next February but will continue until after the last round of the regular season in April.Melbourne Victory are also sweating under the threat of a points deduction until next February for crowd trouble.The incident was a bum note in an otherwise stunning opening round, which attracted a league-record 106,365 attendees to the five matches.

A former NFL player who suffered what the league deemed a career-ending concussion has sued Lloyds of London for denying a $1 million insurance policy for professional athletes.The lawsuit filed this week in North Carolina could become a test case for insurers dealing with the emerging fallout from sports concussions and head trauma claims.The NFL declared former Carolina Panthers defensive back Haruki Nakamura fully and permanently disabled after the concussion he received in an August 2013 preseason game, and it awarded him monthly benefits.Lloyds medical expert nonetheless ruled, nearly 18 months after the claim was filed, that he could return to play. However, the doctor cautioned Nakamura to consider the probable long-term effects of repetitive concussions before making the decision, according to the suit, filed Monday in Mecklenburg County.Lizzie Lowe, a U.S. spokeswoman for Lloyds, said the insurance consortium doesnt comment on pending litigation.Nakamura, 30, said he suffers from headaches, vision problems, fatigue, depression and suicidal thoughts.He hit the side of his head making a tackle in a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he was diagnosed with a concussion at a hospital. Citing a concussion, the Panthers released him five days later, the lawsuit said. He was later diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome by a sports concussion expert at the University of Pittsburgh.Nakamura had paid $17,000 a year for the Llooyds policy in 2012 and 2013, according to his lawyers, John W.dddddddddddd. Schryber and Julie L. Hammerman, who specialize in insurance policies for athletes. The policies are recommended for athletes who might not have a guaranteed salary and who can be cut after an injury. The lawyers said they have never had an insurer reject a policy after a doctor or the NFL judged a client to have a career-ending injury. But this is the first concussion claim they have filed under coverage for bodily injuries.And now theyre denying coverage altogether, Schryber said Wednesday. The point of going out and buying private insurance is to have a hedge against all of these other things that are outside of your control.Nakamura could potentially seek an award under the NFLs planned $1 billion court settlement of concussion claims, though its unclear how he might fare. The settlement, which could roll out within the next year, is designed to cover more than 20,000 NFL retirees for the next 65 years. The league estimates that 6,000 former players, or nearly 3 in 10, could develop Alzheimers disease or moderate dementia that some link to concussions.Nakamura, an Ohio native, played for the Baltimore Ravens from 2008 to 2011 before joining the Panthers. He lives with his wife and two children in Mooresville, North Carolina. ' ' '
