Exciting news but if he is going to be our Australian marquee, shouldn't we be looking at shoring up our left defence rather going after cahill?? There is where we are weak as well. I think once garruccio is back this won't be an issue

I'm I the only one who couldn't sleep thinking about the game to much? Fell asleep at around 1:30 am and woke up at 7:30am to excited, can't wait no matter what way the game goes I just hope we impress and convert our chances

Fantastic

does salary cap become a factor with injury replacement?? No, not to my knowledge. Nor does Australian or overseas player status. For example, Migliorini was an injury replacement player. Bring back migliorini! Will never forget those 2 cracking goals to help us come from 2-0 down to get a 3-3 draw

Easily

What's with Briabane's huge increase? Are Newcastle still doing really cheap memberships with the owner/financial problems, maybe that explains their decrease? Maybe Emile Heskey not playing has made some members not sign up again In other news our memberships are up to 10145

Time seems to be slowing down Might freeze myself so it comes quicker

Would I be able to purchase at the ground?

Gone back up to 10046

Now at 10040 not good Hopefully a derby win and announcement that villa will return or a new signing will give numbers a boost

I inboxed the facebook page and commented on there status asking about stickers the day before our 'historic first home game' as the forum wouldn't work for me and I didn't get a reply but will I be able to buy some stickers at our next home game vs Adelaide??

Going to the game with my dad (unfortunately a victory supporter) we are going very early (4pm) and I'm going to suggest we sit right near the bay's on the 3rd level were the city supporters will be! He will be shocked to be surrounded by city fans! Hopefully the call and response chant works and he'll get impressed Would love to see the look on his face when villa scores a hatrick and all the city fans go nuts

Id like to see the club make a statement very soon regarding David Villa. Then personally I would like to see us sign Josh kennedy or even bring back Eli Babalj or Josip Tadic. Just my opinion guys no need to hate

Oh yes please i loved josip

I wouldnt say younger siblomg as the youngest are usually favoured

A tifo with a picture of villa saying come back soon David in Spanish for the game against Adelaide (depending on what has transpired with this whole circus) would be a good idea IMO

Maybe some sort of tifo or banner in relation to the chant about owning there stadium what a waste of money or whatever.

I agree with this, would be fantastic for NYCFC if he scored a hatrick against Wellington or something rather then just do a few media things over in the U.S. so why take him so early! If it happens I'll go mental

So just saw the A League team of the week! Hoffman and Mooy are in it!

Besart instead of Berisha sounds better IMO

I don't think the nightmare tifo would work just Incase things don't go as planned because it would be quite embarrassing if we lost the game and we had that tifo but I think the banner design with the victory logo as Tasmania would make a great derby tifo IMO and save the nightmare one for our home derby if things are going better by then. Thoughts?

I'm 15 and this is my second year having an active membership, don't think that's a problem as I'm always chanting for 90 minutes. I got in not long after the gates opened and in the first couple of rows of bay 17 I saw many parents with there kids who were around 10 who did not chant and who moved seats at around the 30th minute and left almost a whole row empty (got filled up minutes later though) these are the sort of people who ruin it not the kids who are in the area because most chant, it's mainly the ones with there parents

Clearly many people were there to see villa as whenever he got the ball the crowd would go up. So him performing well and scoring goals will hopefully bring the first timers or others back. Having said that the rest of the team really need to impress if we are to keep those people coming back once he has left

9694 Interesting to see they've just released a fixed 3-game GA membership for the Adelaide, CCM & Sydney games!

Agreed
