Deeming

My Facebook Memories from 5 years ago came up "Inside scoop - the money and development Man City will put into Melbourne Heart will be bigger than anything Australia has seen in any sport" This hasn't aged well. At the time I was told by someone high up close to the club that CFG were going to invest 10's of millions into the club. So much promise...

That can happen in Australia too. Beazley had more votes than Howard in 1998 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_federal_election,_1998

Reminder Matthew Guy is a Melbourne City supporter

Bruno has the confidence to take penalties but it is not justified. Open play I will back him to score, from the spot his record is terrible. I can't find the stats but from memory it was 4+ missed last season.

100% blame on Joyce Bruno should never be allowed anywhere near a penalty kick

I am also not that excited by this signing. For me it will depend on where he plays. If we use a marquee spot on RB then that seems a big waste. If he plays CB and plays well there then great.

International politics or Merchandise thread? Looks like Nike managed to alienate half the US population DmN40QsU8AAFn9_.jpg_large

If it eventually happens (I don't think it will) my guess is the rail line will go to the RMIT end of Bundoora as that is where the empty tracks of land are.

This is what we do every season. "Don't panic there's plenty of time left"...we finalise the squad a few weeks out from the season start, then it takes a couple of months for the team to gel and to learnt to play together and by that stage we've given the other teams a head start.

Marise Payne polticised the defence force which no one should do but I would take even her over Christopher Pyne... But they should have chosen someone with experience and expertise in the field like former major general Jim Molan or SAS Captain Andrew Hastie.

Fox Sports reporting the Roar are close to signing Mathieu Flamini.

Time to stop funding SCHOOLS and start funding STUDENTS. Give each student an education voucher worth whatever thousand dollars, that can be redeemed at whichever school they want (public, private, catholic, etc).

I think this is a big risk. I think since the take over there has been a greater distance between the fans and the club hierarchy. We were told this won't be a mini-Man City but it has in most of the negative areas (re-branding colours, club songs etc) but hasn't seen the big name marque many of us had hoped we would see. There are three Melbourne clubs in the running: Team 11 (Melbourne) - they have a big soccer scene out there, I'm not sure how many are City fans South Melbourne FC - obviously a big established club. Many people would have been supporting South Melbourne a lot longer than Heart/City Western Melbourne Group - my general gut feel is a decent percentage of our fans are from the North and Western suburbs. This may see us lose a chunk of fans.
