Sunday 5pm kickoff means we can get into the week almost right away and forget about the result.

At first glance I cant see how the smurfs can get through our defence. Our fast attack will tear shreds and then from the 4th min on we'll gift them 3 usual pts.

Party on Wayne

All odds are againgst us. Our home record againgst sydney fc is deadset awful. 3 home wins in our existence with 2 of them coming in the first 2 seasons.

At current we have lost our last 5 home games against sydney. Only saving grace is they a 4 day turnaround from the ffa cup. But yeah not expecting much at all.

Hoole to have a tanty when Matt Simon ruffles his hair and collect his next yellow
Devon Head to get booed everytime he touches the ball then give us the bird when he scores
Jets to show mongrel, cop a hatful of yellow and lose to several dead ball opportunities
Zane to get injured lifting bottles of magic water
Jones to sit inanimate on the bench while Haliti plays on after having both legs broken in the first half.
Jet Man to spear tackle Arnie.

Article on TWG about Alex Brisk and the foul that never was...but was really. :rof:
http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/article/2016/12/01/brosque-claims-he-was-denied-game-changing-free-kick

Sh!tney showing the same arrogance again against us, but unfortunately for us,
we're a bunch of patsies and they'll win.

End of the article quote from Brosque:-

Sydney were dejected to leave Melbourne without the trophy they'd craved for six years,
but intended to reignite their A-League title push on Sunday against Newcastle.
"Today, the boys are in better spirits," he said.
"We know we go up to Newcastle, we get a good win there,
continue our form in the league and it gets forgotten about pretty quickly."

In context guys - I think one of our guys said last week "we beat Victory we're back in the six".

That said Brosque is a girl for thinking that six officials must be wrong AND there was no doubt they would equalise from the free kick AND then pinch it in extra time.

This team has no idea. They can't pass a ball to each other. When they manage that then they can't control it. Brown looks frustrated. He started the season like a house on fire but now he is largely ineffective. They all seem to have an individual plan which is not the same as the man next to them. Very few times 2 or 3 players get on the same page but it's rare.

No one seems to give a shit anymore (again) and Jack Duncan has made some brilliant saves throughout the season. If it wasn't for him we would be worse off. We have a squad that is much better then they are doing but they need a game plan. I know we have had injuries to some important players but the shit that has been dished up really is not good enough.

As for our manager, have a ****ing go. Everyone expects you to lose. At least try and win a game, or just score a goal for that matter. Sitting back hoping for a 0-0 draw every game is extremely boring. We are not playing positively. We are playing to keep the other side out, not to score ourselves. I think that says a lot about the mentality. Negative minds. We need positivity and if you play in a positive way I think you'all get a better reaction.

FFS, sort it out.

You could argue that our squad is stronger than last years but the problem is most of the other teams are sronger too. Our recruitment of visa players is so far behind the top clubs it's not funny, that I think is our biggest downfall. As an example we have already extended Brown's contract for another 2 seasons, yes he has some good qualities but he is not in the same league as Martinez, Brandan or Jakobsen for example of some new visa players this season. As a club either we seem to be delusional and clueless to just how high the bar is in regards to the quality of visa player that is required....or we simply don't have the know-how and resources available to not only scout these players but to actually attract them here. Probably a combination of all these factors.
This Jan transfer window could be the most important period under the Ledman ownership's short history to date which could be a strong indicator of just how serious Martin Lee is about making this club a force.

You can argue all you want. Our squad is not good enough to make the top 6 in a 10 team comp

I thought it was pretty poor form from both squadron and the cove yesty that the 71st minute wasn't recognised. Other games had a minute applause. All I heard was some bloke on a microphone yelling the whole time.

It was mentioned prior to the game, but to b honest I forgot about it as we had just gone down 2-0 and I think most people were packing up and leaving around the 71st minute.

Plus we had just lost our inspirational leader Kanta in the 69th minute.

I think by that stage most people were either asleep, contemplating suicide, or asking themselves why they ****ing bother.

I was contemplating and weighing up the pros and cons of whether a crystal meth addiction would be better in the long and short term than supporting this abomination of a club so that why I missed taking part.

Most people do forget these things. But it's often left upon the active support to initiate. I thought it would be a good gesture that would have gotten some of the crowd to actual realise the squadron was there. Sorry I know people work hard and the results on the field don't help but the active support at this club really has gone to shit

If you aren't part of the solution you're part of the precipitate.

The minutes silence prematch was impeccably observed
Unfortunately however, with hardly anyone showing up for active support against Sydney, it was a struggle to get ppl to chant Cmon Newcastle let alone lead the stadium in a minutes applause. We were that busy concentrating on trying to gee up the few people that were in active support, we missed the 71st minute mark and didn't realise until a few minutes later.
Apologies if anyone was offended.

As far as your comment that active support went to shit - I agree with you.
We had over 150 ppl in the bay for the derby the previous game. We had probably 35 for the game on sunday. Where did they all go from the previous game? The usual guys were there, but everyone else needs to rock up every game to make it work. What are we supposed to do?

They are boys from the old times.

Gotta look after your own.

How you think he got the job in the first place, you think he was the most qualified man for the job or something?

Time to double up now on Perth next week


Easy money
