GVE Gooooooooone

[Thomas477]

look at the muppets we have played over the last couple of weeks but

Heart at home: heart haven't won away outside the of the melbourne derby at etihad round 1

Brisbane: lucky not to lose

Wellington: no coach, took advantage of it.

than;

Melbourne: good team, good coach & garys "tactical tanking" failed

we probably will win this week against glory, but its a tough run in against adelaide & western sydney.

FFS, have you ever thought that GvE was prepared to throw away getting a result against a higher placed team, who we can't catch up to barring a miracle, to get the definite 3 points against Wello and then have a full strength team against Perth who could still make the finals and knock us out.

Either way, we win and the same people who blame GvE for chopping and changing the squad, aren't happy that Riberio, Regan etc aren't playing. We lose against a higher placed team and he's an incompetent fool.

You don't see the coach of Wigan getting sacked for losing to Manchester United.

If we had won yesterday, the Victory AND Adelaide, who we play in 2 weeks time, were both within striking distance 3 points ahead - granted we have played an extra game. There was certainly pressure to have been applied.

Yes, there was probably a chance. However, playing to Middleby's exception of top 6, GvE played safe by wanting to beat the teams below us to stop them overtaking us, and happy to throw away points to a team who may be able to catch the coasties and make them come third. I don't blame him for doing so, and given the current crop of cattle, and I would agree with the team for yesterday (although I would have signed one or two more experienced heads by now). We do need some more experienced players, if nothing else as back up when the first choices are out.

lol what kind of speng goes out to throw away a result? a ****ing loser that's what

gve dropped the oranges here pal, and if he was a player, would be dropped to da yoof or shot out of a cannon into the sun

Q Man You remember Tiago giving away the pens to Brisbane in an attempt to **** over the Gypos last season??

I agree with you here. Given the situation we found ourselves in yesterday with rested players, injuries and illnesses to Brown and Virgili it was probably the team I would have picked too (except maybe Chapman starting and Ritter - but do you break up a CB pairing playing well? Probably not). The players he has to select, however, is the result of Gary's own doing.

Agree we need more experience in the team even as a back up.

I'll put this down to you being angry mate

[Grimario]

There is little wrong with pushing fullbacks up the park if you maintain possession which we didn't players fault not coaches. There is also little wrong with this method if the centre mids drop in to cover like they should be Players fault not coaches.

Shit, glad you spotted this. Would not have realised that our midfielders were complete and utter shit for 22 out of 24 games of football if you hadn't pointed it out.

Ever thought that if the same players do the same thing for 22 ****ing games with ZERO change that it might have something to do with the inept ****wit at the helm?

Meh.... they'll just vet out the online questions that Gary doesn't want asked or want to answer. I've done enough webcast corporate result presentations online and they do the same tactic where by the vet out the tricky questions they don't or won't weant to answer.......... Ooooh long time lurker too but my first post.

[Grimario]

Must be tough lurking on here with so much hate for you, Sam

[#13]

Actually I just ahve a bit more time these days to get involved and throw my 2 cents. I don't think GVE has brought anything new with him from hi time @ Institute of Sport and with access to FFA resources, ie Pim / Holger etc, so I kind of expected something better this season with his team that he built. Look at what Poppa has done with WSW and half of that team is made of ex Jets and the table don't lie! IMHO GVE will be eventually shown up in much the same way as Fergie over at Perth and Ricki at the Nix have been. Anyway I haven't had the time to lurk on the threads yet.... stay tuned

Get some new boots ay Sammy.

Sorry to disagree with your second post but the comment about WSW and jets players is crap.

Covic - left on his own free will 4 years ago
Elrich - reserve/bench player at WSW
Topor - been playing well, but was honking his last season with us
Da Puzz - left the game entirely, then came back
Bridge - went to Sydney because he wanted to, did nothing for 3-4 years then has pulled his finger out
Haliti - bench player at WSW

So by my count, that's 1 player has played well this year, as opposed to crap last year. Plus Covic, who him leaving wasnt our fault. The rest are bench or reserves. So that's hardly half the team.....

I think the point is that Popa gets the best out of these players and is topping the league, whereas GVE benched them

the excuse bullshit about having to fly internationally for a midweek game is similar

we played Friday, Wednesday and Sunday games, compare and contrast with any team who played in European competitions, did they crap on about how this was some great injustice or did they just ****ing get on with it as professionals? four days gap then three days gap for a three hour flight is more than enough for fit professionals

[380]

GVE was hoping that yesterdays game would vindicate all he has preached regarding youth and he would come away looking like the cat that swollowed the mice. Sadly and predictably once again GVE proved he is a useless twat and more importantly he suffered a severe case of egg on the eggs face.

Sad reality is if they decided to punt GVE we probably do not have the dough to get another coach in so a re arranging of the deck chairs would take place and possibly Deans in FFS, scarey shit that thought.

That's all good and well harping on about they do in Europe Boz but this ain't Europe. Every other team in the HAL will struggle playing weekend midweek and weekend. This is Australia and the blokes ain't use to doing it so don't spin no they do it in Europe crap as being relevant. European pros do that every week every year year after year. Just because it is rare event here doesn't mean we are able to deal with the pre game build up post game let down and pre game build ups at rapid fire rate.


Not that I am crying about it but Gypos preparation for the top of the table clash V Wallys is compromised by the ACL and they are behind the eight ball where Wallys had a whole week to FOCUS on Gypos. We had a midweek game in Wellington and then a short turn around to play Sunday in Melbourne against a team who had all week to prepare to play us whilst we spent most of the week focusing on Wellington and not turning our attention to Victory until Wednesday night after the Nix game finished. Hell I would love Perth to be playing tomorrow night and then flying on to play us Friday. Would be a great leg up to get advantages like that
