Don’t understand why people wanting WU to lose, any win by a Sydney team plays into Townsend his hand.

They're force feeding him. He'll soon be foie gras.

Bos is almost a generational find. But we always worry about the loss of the tangible talent, until the intangible prospects become reality. We've recruited increasingly well in the last few years and on this at least I trust the club. Let's see what the closed season brings us.

Oui Oui!

IMO there's no "should" about it. You get the crowds that you deserve. I also think that while any successes of CFG and other CFG clubs have little or no impact on interest in Melbourne City, being what is effectively a football club owned by a State puts quite a lot of people off our club. There is quite a bit of discussion of the future of football in Europe as a result of State-owned clubs such as Manchester City, Newcastle United and Paris Saint-Germain, and also the emergence of the "Big Four" and "Big Six" groups of clubs in various leagues. In Australia we don't have a big reservoir of fans ready and waiting to buy memberships if existing members drift away from the game and a club. Neither do we have a voracious media to publicise the game and IMO neither do we manage the game well - the GF decision being a perfect example of how to shoot yourself in the foot.

Your not wrong on Bos, he's probably the best talent we've brought through the seniors thus far. This off season I feel is going to be the most interesting as there is likely to be many holes to fill this time around.

Boycotting.

You must admit that preceded by the French onion soup, a couple of bread rolls with butter, and accompanied by a decent bottle of beaujolais, that's pretty easy on the palate and hard to resist...
