    Had a "set-back" of a couple of weeks. Aiming to be back in contention for the match after the international break.

    The squad is essentially unchanged from Wednesday night. Looks as though we've named everyone except Emin Durakovic - he seems to have disappeared after getting big wraps earlier??  Doesn't look as though we have anyone else from the youth squad who's challenging for a place.

    I'd like to see Galloway start instead of Talbot.

    Did'nt Talbot get injured last week ?

     

  2. I can certainly agree with all the posts here on this subject, i tuned in to watch the grand final and within 20seconds i had the first streaming issue and they continued for the   next ten minutes during which i felt like throwing the TV out the window . i eventually tuned into Bold and it was clear for the whole execution .  I closed the programme directly after the final whistle. I am seriously thinking of not renewing my subsciption  for next season .

    Be nice but doubt he be interested in A League, he is a higher level. 

    Bloke left New York by mutual consent, (he walked) then went to Flamengo got sacked after 18 months. Then went to Galatasaray and got sacked June 2022, been out since.

    I reackon he is at a level between MLS and top 5 League in Europe. 

    Regardless Rado is going nowhere, there is very little chance he will be replaced. 

    my comment is about the last line, if you think  about it we are a city club after all. Kisnorbo hardly won a game at Troies (pardon the spelling)  but he is still there and we have the ACL to think about before next season.

    In the same article-

    '...we're trying to work through with engagement and the things we're putting in place with our fans to rebuild that relationship.'

    Then, when asked about the fairness of the 'neutral' venue change'-

    'People need to get beyond that, right.'

    Our Fans??? surely he means NSW fans because the vast majority of the rest of Auatralia do NOT want this stupid plan!!

    I take your point. The tactics might be correct, but it isn't what the fans want to see. Further, play the ball backwards to the point where it's  at Glover's feet or even in his hands you're looking straight at a turnover. He is just not authoritative with the ball. 

    I agree most strongly, it scares the Bejesus out of me too.

    We MUST Get a Better goalkeeper than the one we have .

     

  6. I have in my posession club badges form foundation to the last year they were given out to members , if anyone is interested could you get in touch via this site .I am giving them away for free.

    This do's not mean i am giving City away forever i am merely clearing out some items i don't need.

    Can't see where to post about this, so putting here. Anyone else having more and more difficulty getting Paramount to play the current match. Every time I go in I get the round one match for either the men or the dub. Increasingly difficult to get this to stop and get into the current match. Paramount really is shit.

    Same here Fensaddler, i drives me to distraction it happens everytime i log in to paramount to watch a live game total crap .

     

  8. On the subject of tradition, the APL spouting about the EPL finals ( cup league etc) i think you will find that the tradition is Bulldust the main reason that  those finals are played at Wembley is because the Stadium is owned by the FA via a holding company.  Also the furthest any fans would have to travel is approx 400kms or thereabouts to support their club unlike Australia which could take anything up to two days depending on where they come from.

    Football was founded on being  a sport that EVERYONE could follow not just the wealthy  !!!

    One of these is


    I applaud FA's effort to try and protect the active supporters however Glover can throw further than that. :)

  10. I also was a founder member until last season my darling wifes health was starting to detererate (sorry about the spelling) also my own so we decide not to attend games. In the mean time after a derby at AMII park we were quietly walking to the station after the game when we had a flare thrown at us from somewhere below where we were walking so i tossed it back to them and was then threatened with assault . Luckily a fellow walker who was bigger than them told them to get lost, those supposed fans were Victory supporters so it must run in the blood of their fans. 

    This disgraceful behavior at this last match has to  be the last straw for Victory active, as like many others i think they were at that match purely to riot, ok so Glover did the wrong thing but the security should have dealt with it in the first instance.

    My goodness we've got some soft send offs this year.

    My thoughts, i can't help thinking "have the refs been told to tighten up and produce more cards as this is happening right across the league not only red cards but also yellows for what i would deem to be strong tackles but not even yellow cards. it's strange but this has been happening right from the start of the season.

  12. Totally agree jw1793 we hear absolutely nothing about our club along with even less about the  A league and they wonder why the fans stay away. After watching the EPL teams etc on tv it is appalling that we cannot get decent attendances to A league games .
