Herman Cain Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Ticketek claiming that everything except small areas of Premium A, Premium B and Level 3 are sold out. Seems unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyheart Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Time for a revised weather forcast? im hearing 29 now ... not that it will matter with the 7:45 KO The big bonus is that they play tomorrow night, makes me feel a little better about that Not Available list of ours.

schrecky Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I altered my seats last night to move to prem A - there were only limited cheap seats available at midnight last night. In theory that should have freed up 7 heart members GA tickets, but didnt seem to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sash Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I really didn't think it would be close to selling out this early in the week. Just got tickets - B reserve on level 3 Eastern, but would've preferred Heart reserved area. Still, I bet there'll be empty seats there even though it says allocation exhausted.

If you have a GA membership, you have to upgrade to Premium A or B seats and pay the difference. No GA seats left according to Ticketek.

cadete Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Let’s hope there are no douches like last time complaining there are people in their allocated seats in the Active Bay again this Derby. FFS read the Active Bay rules. Not likely however, I am sure there will be many of these types... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buddy Farah Posted January 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 "Melbourne Hearts threadbare squad has been further decimated with confirmation that midfielder Matt Thompson has been ruled out of Saturdays derby. Thompson has been ruled out for a month after limping off early in the second half of the 3-1 loss to Wellington Pheonix with a knee injury."

We've barely got a match squad, what with injuries and three gone to the Olyroos. Hey would only come in playing of the bench, far from match fitness. Srhoj will come in and start this one. There is still enough talent in the squad: Bolton, Mattei, Roganovic, Marrone, Hamill, Colosimo, Good, Worm, Sarkies, Srhoj, Reid, Zahra, Ibrahim, Germano, Terra, Babalj, Maycon, Williams. With a couple of the yoof lads in contention, namely, Goodwin, Gronewald and Jeremy Walker. Being a derby, likely line up is: Bolton; Marrone, Hamill, Colosimo, Good; Sarkies, Srhoj, Germano; Terra/Williams, Babalj, Terra/Worm Edited January 31, 2012 by Buddy Farah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 We have a limited range of player options for the next month but as always we need to pick a squad, formation and tactics to suit the opposition, luckily MV are playing so poorly:) The last few weeks they have sat deeper and deeper as the game has progressed and counter-attacked, it's more likely that they will do the same as they really aren't able to maintain a high press for more than 20 minutes or so. Our vulnerabilities are that we are less organised at the back since Madaschi has left, and we lack the forward third movement off the ball, ball speed in our passing and the vision of a player like Fred to be able to unpick a deep defence. Of course one solution to that is to play with width but we've lost both Mate and Aziz:( MV's weakness is midfield but here we are lacking Fred and Thompson, both attacking midfielders. I'd be looking to the NYL team, maybe promoting Zahra although returning in this game will be difficult for him because of what happened last year. Goodwin, Zac Walker and Stipo Andrijasevic are all playing well, Zac Walker is a goal scoring machine. Bolton Good Colosimo Hamill Sarkies Marrone Srhoj Germano Walker Terra Worm Bench: Williams or Zahra, Goodwin or Reid, Babalj I'd play 3-1-3-3 with Sarkies having the job of marking Hernandez. Normally I'd ask Srhoj but he hasn't had any recent matches so I'll go with Sarkies. Terra as a false 9 to draw out the MV defence and Worm and Walker as inverted wingers. It's a big ask for Zac Walker, first senior game and a derby, but not a lot of choices. Babalj to come off the bench as a conventional 9 when Williams replaces Worm, Terra moves to the left. Babalj as a second half impact player and Williams for his pace. Reid for his experience, Goodwin for his form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
