Kilkenny would be a great signing.
Bring in kisnorbo and you could call us Leeds.
Zads appeared to me to give up after Joel signed.
Griff as captain is reason enough to member up this season.

Djulbic the striker as opposed to Djulbic the almost 2m tall central defender?Quote:

Why not? Zads just motors around the pitch, pings the occasional long shot, hacks a few opponents. Maybe Stubbins doesn't need that in his team, maybe Zads is surplus to requirements. Maybe Stubbins has someone lined up that far exceeds his ability and Zad actually WANTS out (which the article suggests with the mentions of long term security) and we won't stand in his way?Quote:

Cornflakes and Flores - Stubbins is getting the band back together. Look for Van Dijk as striker announced in the next few months then.Quote:

Except for hutcho or Simon. They can get stuffed
Griff as capo :wub: Love it.
Don't know why I said Van Dijk. That left winger bloke that played for us part of last year also spent a season or so under Stubbins. Nathan Burns or something?Quote:

Personally, if Flores is 100% he is top quality, Cornthwaite works well when his other CB is a quicker, more skillful player, which I feel Jaliens is and I don't really have an opinion of Harold
A pissant, a Gypo and some bloke off Neighbours.Quote:

Yes to cornthwaite, maybe to flores, no to Harold.Quote:

Would like the jets to uncover another diamond but ok with Flores if fully fit and cheap enough so that we good maybe snag burns as well.
No to Harold, does some decent running and off the ball stuff but not much end product. Virgili already has this covered for us.
Only reason to sign Harold is to stop the bloke scoring against us
maybe not, nice cliche prof. discQuote:

Why none of the multiple multi-use stadiums that we have in this country are not using this stuff I'll never know.
Absolutely. White hart lane they use a version of this. Where real grass is interwoven with artificial grass and rooting. Perfect pitch every tiemQuote:

Swansea use it and average 54 games in a year between their football and rugby team, Doncaster have rugby, league and football running year round at keepmoat stadium too. These are the sorts of legacy's that these sorts of tournaments should be helping to leave.
They can't actually be serious, the HAL teams use away strips anyway so half of City's game would be in another colour. SFC need to get over themselves.Quote:
FFA block Melbourne Heart’s bid to change strip to sky blue after Sydney FC object
FOX SPORTS
May 30, 2014 12:01AM
MELBOURNE Heart’s bid to adopt the sky-blue of owners Manchester City has been dashed after an objection by Sydney FC was upheld.
Heart was taken over by the English Premier League champions near the end of the last A-League season and it was made clear they would look for their new acquisition to change their strip from red and white stripes to sky blue.
However inaugural A-League champions Sydney FC objected to the FFA, saying their club, who play in sky blue shirts and are know as the ‘Sky Blues’ had a very strong connection with the colour.
They also maintained having two teams sporting sky blue shirts in a 10-team competition was “nonsensical.”
Fairfax Media reported on Thursday night Sydney FC’s objection had been upheld by the FFA and an independent abitrator on Tuesday night.
It is still expected Heart’s new owners will try to change the name of the club to City.
Manchester City are owned by the Abu Dhabi United Group, a private equity company owned by Sheikh Mansour, who is a member of the Abu Dhabi Royal family.
The group has ambitious plans beyond City, having started an MLS club, New York City FC, from scratch. That club will also play in sky blue.
Already have a rivalry with victory and if melb city can develop a fan base this could turn into a clash just as spiteful.
Spot on pico, east Sydney do need to get over themselves. They need a huge marquee to draw a respectable crowd ffs.
they tried that but is hasnt worked, disgrace.Quote:

Major leagues like the EPL wouldn't have big teams using the same colours. It just isn't smart.
What, like Liverpool, Arsenal and United?Quote:
