I hope we are approaching Joe Montemurro while he is in town coaching the ALW All-Stars

So far he hasn't impressed enough to warrant a permanent deal at the end of the season

On some of the club's social media channels. Here's one https://fb.watch/jMO8oVNFH-/ Would love a weekly round-up of academy results too and the occasional player profile. Will mention it next time I get selected for a member survey

Some really great team play as well. Seeing this kind of content from our (recently?) expanded academy has been awesome. Feels more like a club and less like just an a-league team.

2. O'neil - carrying our attack atm 1. Good - was immense

I think he could do with another season or two here. From my pov, he's physically weak, inconsistent, and often lacks the final ball. Can't help but think Europe will chew him up and spit him out if he leaves at end of season.

No confidence going into this after yesterday. I'd take a draw at this point.

Haven't been that frustrated watching City in a long time. Thought active did a great job for their small numbers

I hope so too. After 3+ years at the top, our active are still obsessed with the opposition and overly negative chants. Makes you wonder whether they actually support the team or if it's just a chest beating exercise. It's not hard to see that other parts of the crowd generally become more involved when chants are positive and simple. If active are genuine about creating an atmosphere, they would lean into this. We won't ever have many fans who are interested in the same brand of active support as MV/WSW (at least I hope not). Why bother trying to emulate them? ^ this is generally A-league wide. Active support groups have delusions of grandeur.

Des Buckingham and Mumbai City are top after 16 games undefeated in India. Seems likely he will be our manager next season, unless he is promoted to a CFG club above us.

Mariners have been great to watch. They've got something special at the moment

I agree that he's a good a-league manager; the nix is a tough gig imo. He is a pork-chop on the sidelines though, and that seems to be a red-flag for a number of posters here. I'm interested to see how Papas goes at the Jets this year. When they were on last season it was a joy to watch.

Pure fantasy some of the stuff written here. On a football forum you expect some armchair tacticians, but now we have body-language experts and psychologists. As for Ufuk, the bloke is just as bad as PK if not worse on the sidelines.

Yes, sorry for the confusion. What I meant was, "if we were to have a home kit like this, I would buy it".
