Good on 'em.
To be the first Australian team to make the final is a pretty good achievement.

Hearing the wsw players talk with such ambition about the ACL being another trophy they want to win makes me very jealous of the winning culture they already have.
Such a culture comes from good and clear leadership.
Yeah true, first 3 seasons of A-league had some good times for us, but nothing on this scale. 2 grand finals and an ACL final in 2 and a bit years v 1 grand final, a few (4-5?) semi final appearances and an ACL Rd of 16 exit in 20ish seasons (in various forms of teams...Breakers, Newcastle United, Jets since I was a young kid watching) is hard to swallow
I honestly love being mediocre. Would rather be a whinging bastard than a gloating one.

I'm hoping this is sarcasm.
It's not that much different. We were one game off the grand final in 07 (and may have even replaced Adelaide in the ACL that year they made it all the way to the final) We only lost on penalties. The team was dismantled by the time we played in the ACL. The difference is that the stability of coaching and management probably means that their success will be consistent. With stability you can build success on top of success.

I still believe that 07 team was the best we have put out in our history. We didnt win for the first seven games but after that they really fired and did well. On paper our strongest squad and once they kicked into gear probably our strongest on the park. They were unlucky not to make the grand final, and if they had they would have done a huge amount better than adelaide (6-0 was it to victory?)
But i agree we did have a good run and a winning culture to start the a-league but it dissapeared so quickly!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
Also im starting to get sick of people saying that WSW are Newcastle Rejects.
How many players were involved last night that were actually released by us because they "werent good enough"?
Labi, that is all!
NTS released as he was on a huge amount here and they needed funds elsewhere (well they thought they did, i dont know where they went)
Covic came to the end of his contract and decided to move on.
Bridge left for the money of bling fc and then moved on.
The others guys like tarek and d'apuzzo arent there anymore
Im not saying us releasing these players / players leaving us was a good or bad thing im am just getting over the whole jets rejects thing!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
well said. cmon hilal
Pissants don't count... lol
WSW invented Finals etc.
Their supporters will be even more insufferable should they win the ACL. They have gone far enough ffs

See, we get ****ed over by Monster Trucks.
Wanderers use Monster Trucks to their benefit.
Wanderers > Jets.
Nice lot of away support at parra tonight in the south end. Looks good in colour patches.
Mangoes? You should try eating it first before you hate it. I'm sure after you have tasted it, you will love it.
