  1. Visitors Youth v Melbourne Youth

    Date: Sunday 5 February 2012

    Kick-off: 3.00 PM @ Kingston Heath (Soccer Complex)

    Address: 301-307 Centre Dandenong Road Cheltenham 3192

    Public Transport Guide:

    Catch the Frankston line out to Cheltenham Station.

    • From there catch the 828 bus - the same bus stop services buses going in opposite directions, so be sure you ask the driver which direction they're going (using DFO or Moorabbin Airport as reference helps). That's the easy part.Getting back is worse, especially on Friday nights.
    • Though the busdoes run late on Friday nights, they finish at about the end of a match, making using them for getting home a risky proposition. Weekends are a little better, but intervals are an hour apart - and buses may go past earlier than what is timetabled.

    This should be a bunch of fun...

  2. You fucking kidding me?

    His tactics were superb, not his fault that he has to play with 10 mugs on the pitch + Bolton. The same dogs who couldn't even acknowledge our existence after the game.

    He has worse resources than a Ugandan primary school, money stricken and living in poverty, useng second hand and second rate facilities.

    To have us sittin in third at this stage of the season is a credit to his managerial skills.

    Long live JVS.

  3. TUiD - You like my post about fickle supporters in the other thread, yet you have this attitude. That's net very true until you die.

    Anyway's in some bad news:

    Heart will avoid making drastic changes to the team that lost 2-1 to Perth Glory on Sunday although Babalj is battling to overcome soreness and could miss out.

    "Ali has some physical things that we are taking care of. That's why he didn't train today – he only did the warm-up."

    "He has a longer recovery time and he could be in doubt to play tomorrow."

  4. Sounds lovely in theory, but unfortunately it's not going to happen and that's the sad reality.

    Do you think you are the first to have these thoughts? So many different strategies have been tried, and tried again.

    We can't even get the whole of the active supporters to stand-up for the 90, let alone joining in the singing/chanting.

    Pretty much once we've conceded, it's lights out for the majority of fans,

    In this day in age, barley anywhere in the world do you get a whole stadium singing together during a match, in any sport - other then your anthems or with the help of audio over the speakers, etc - so, how are we supposed to achieve it?

    As much as we'd all love it to happen, the reality is Australian sporting culture took a dive for the worst in the late 70's-80's where the Americanization of our sports, culture and society began to really take place.

    Basket ball announcers force you to chant "de-fense, de-fense", etc, Cricket now has cheerleaders and fireworks, AFL play music after every goal and have some sort of sponsor named trophy for every second league game... I could go on but I'm sure you guys get the picture.

    Amongst other things, largely,

    - club loyalty has been lost,

    - artificial/plastic passion/emotion is forced,

    - fickle fans and band-wagoners are all the rage,

    - and many people have simply become little lambs in this society. (See snapbacks, etc)

    Anyway, i've strayed of topic, but the long and the short of it is, "It ain't gonna happen".
