    Because we will never own AAMI or even obtain a long-term lease over it and will always have to pay to play there. If you own or have a long-term lease on your home ground you can start to generate income from the facilities in it.

    But our own home ground is just a dream with the state that football is in in this country. Just too much uncertainty.

    Why not? I imagine that when the current leases run out, CFG would be looking at getting a long term lease there. Would hate for us to move from AAMI, it is a brilliant stadium in the perfect location.

    I think @Shahanga meant 10M Schrute Bucks

     

    So according to the exchange rate which was 1 Schrute Buck = 1/10000th of 1 US cent, 10million Schrute Bucks would be US$1000, which is, at time of me posting, AUD$1381.05. This seems very low in the current world football transfer climate. Therefore I would have to disagree with you haz and say that Shahanga was not suggesting that Daniel Arzani is worth 10M Schrute Bucks.

    Anything by Phil Collins sens me into deep sleep. And sometimes you need that kind of deep, near comatose, sleep.

    Fair enough I guess. Don't get why people do it when a bunch of other people are in the same room though. That's just rude.

  4. Not going to lie, if we'd signed Honda and then he'd agreed to manage the Cambodian National Team and said to the media he was planning on retiring before he was approached by the club I'd be pretty bloody concerned right now... (Now that I've said this he'll win the Johnny Warren medal and the golden boot)

  5. Honestly there are so many dumb fucks on here I'm going to spell it out about the Arzani transfer so everyone can attempt to get it through their neanderthal skulls.

    1 - Arzani has for a very long time been one of the highest rated youths in the country. He spent a long time at the AIS and was always going to do great things. He grew up in Sydney and played for Sydney FC's youth team. Why would one of the highest rated future stars of Australian football leave his home city and home club to move to Melbourne? Because we have the best facilities and a clear career pathway into Europe thanks to our CFG connection. If you honestly think he would have left Sydney to come play for La Trobe Uni cow paddock training, wheelie bin ice bath using Melbourne Heart you have a hole in your head. So without CFG, he wouldn't have been here in the first place.

    2 - The best young players leave the A League for Europe. It happens at every single club. Has nothing to do with CFG, it happens, and has happened all through the league's history. This may be scary for some of you dense fuckers to think about, but it also happened at Melbourne Heart. We sold players like Good, Behich, Babalj etc to Europe for waaay less than $500,000.

    3 - Who cares what arbitrary number they put on the transfer? Nothing changes in our bank account. It's the same organisation.

    TL;DR: Arzani only came to City because of CFG and he would have left with or without Manchester because he was sick of playing in front of you cunts too stupid to grasp these facts, and I don't blame him.

    I want fuckin squiggly lines on the arms.

    What we not good enough for squiggles

    The squiggly arm lines looked shite on the socceroos kit and they look shite on the Man City kit. Glad that we haven't got them as they'd likely have been navy. New kit looks mint tbh

  7. Great result, nice to see some of the new boys getting on the scoresheet too. Only watched the first half but from what I saw we looked solid, organised and moved the ball well. That being said, the amount of Kerala fans commenting on the Melbourne City Facebook posts saying how much of an honour it was to play "one of the best teams in Asia" makes me think that they are of a fairly low standard and the result shouldn't really be read into too much.
