The rankings are already flawed, Colombia are something like 6th in the world whilst the netherlands are 10th. At the moment Portugal and France could play off who i'd argue are the best two teams in the playoffs. It will all be clearer on Wednesday when the playoff teams are decided but I still don't like the system.

Just read on Eurosport that they are going to stick to that stupid seeding bullshit where the 4 highest ranked teams play the 4 lowest ranked teams. The ranking system is already flawed and an absolute joke and I can't believe they're going to do this instead of randomly drawing the countries. It's really not fair on countries like Iceland who are going to have to play a decent side no matter what! Sorry for the rant. I'm also really intrigued to see what England are going to do over the next week, I have a strong feeling they'll drop into a play off spot which could bring up the possibility of a play off against a team like turkey which will be interesting

Only need 28 a day to get 6000 before the CCM, a win on saturday will give us a huge boost in regard to memberships.

Rest of story: http://topinfopost.com/2013/10/03/fbi-arrests-29-year-old-mastermind-of-billion-dollar-internet-drug-blackmarket We should of all chipped in to buy an assassin for the wife beater In all seriousness, the amount of money he made on that is crazy and the fact that it was all being done on public wifi really is unbelievable.

Really surprised we got a 20% increase as last year was absolutely pathetic performance wise. I know this has probably already been mentioned but what was last years final membership figure?

Left it way too late to buy tickets, looks like the only ones left are behind the south and Norf end. Anyone selling an Active Area ticket?

Just play this as the goal song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vZeXnFWVqE After 40 seconds

Chase the sun and better off alone would be quality. Does anyone use Zombie Nation? I reckon that'd be good to.

Watched 'we're the millers' last night and found it hilarious, to top it off Jennifer Aniston is still a 10/10

I will be extremely pissed if they get rid of So happy Together, what's the point of using it for the back end of last season if we are going to get rid of it? Surely this is a fitting walk out track

You're probably right mate, quality kit anyhow!

Big fan of the striped green and black kit but not the half coloured one mate. Just wondering, doesn't the kit have to feature some form of charcoal?

Was fucking keen for GTA so went and got it during the day, after installing the 1st disc I popped in the second and everything seemed fine. I have the original Xbox 60GB, got it about 5 or 6 years ago. Anyway finished the first mission and was up to the part where Michael is talking to the psychologist and my TV screen just went black, at first thought my TV was fucked but realised the picture on my xbox wasn't working. Tried it on a couple of TV's around the house and used different hdmi and AV cables but to no avail . Now there is no picture or sound and i Can't even connect my controller to the xbox, sorry for the long post but surely the disc has nothing to do with it? Also has anyone else had this issue? Probably going to buy a preowned xbox for about 80$ to get me through the next two months but it's still an absolute ball breaker.

Also as we have reportedly agreed terms Mifsud, won't he miss this game as it is the international round and he will most likely be called up for Malta? Then again Victory could be missing Archie and Milligan.

yes.yes we will. Can't wait

At least we won't have to deal with the specials who chant 'we hate victory' for the whole fucking game when other chants are being sung.

Press conference tomorrow

1. Sydney- Excellent squad, underachieved the last couple of years and expect them to do well this year. 2. Visitors- Average squad but Ange is a brilliant coach they also have a good spine with Milligan, Archie and Leijer. 3. Central Coast- Another excellent coach in Arnold, expect them to still do well despite the loss of key players. 4. West Sydney- Don't have the element of surprise like last year but will still do well. 5. Melbourne- Think we're getting a bit too excited, we have made some good signing but can't see us finishing higher then around 3rd. 6. Brisbane- Will just sneak in ahead of Adelaide, Mckay will be key. 7. Adelaide- Will start poorly but will make a late push for finals, have to get used to style of football etc. 8. Newcastle- Rubbish side. 9. Perth- Will struggle without Smeltzy (hope he recovers alright) can't see them doing anything this season. 10. Wellington- Merrick and Fat ass, thats all.

Yeah surprised about walker and amini, but geria and Galloway over ansell? Ansell was brilliant for victory this year, mind boggling.

Can see us getting pumped by 2 or 3 tonight, Osieck is a clown who knows what he sees in some of these guys. Only real positive is that Ognenovski should start!

Carlton cole just been released by the hammers?

Simon/cilic/wawrinka to win paying just over $3 Also got money on Bordeaux in the French semi

Would definitely take Leo Bertos, can play anywhere on the left side...wouldn't mind Diogo Fierera who has a point to prove to the mongs

Are they playing at the SFS due to attendance or is paramtta booked out by the rugby?
