Adelaide will face Melbourne City in a friendly behind closed doors in Melbourne Wednesday as it continues to ramp up its pre-season, which took an embarrassing turn when the Reds were eliminated by Redlands United 2-1 in extra time in the FFA Cup a fortnight ago.

Because it's three days before the cup tie and we need the practice?

That's right. If we follow last seasons game plan, the 2nd string players will be playing the FFA Cup Tie and they'll need some game time before then.

Yes. Does seem a bit tight to me. You wouldn't want a key player to take a slight knock in the practice match and miss the Cup match when a gap of 5-6 days would have allowed recovery.

Whats the common denominator of these crap performances again? Red and white kit

More like going into a match with a defence consisting of Chapman, Malik and Rose. Practice match or not, doesn't matter - f*cking stupid if you ask me. 

Will do heaps for the membership tally and the crowd for the FFA Cup match. And the confidence of the team.
