Melbourne Victory vs Western Sydney Wanderers 25/3/2016 7:40PM

Quote of the night from a Spanish friend who is watching the game with us.

Speaking of Berisha... after his carry on about being called off side (on a shot which Reddy saved anyway)

"This guy...he's a little bit nuts!"

Lol...only bright spot all game really.

Sigh!!

Second half was one of our worst showings all season. Not good enough at this stage of the season.

Last post from me for the night - why have so few travelled to Melbourne for this season-defining clash? 

I thought you were going to take 4K to Melbourne easy for regular mid season games, but I see about 100 in the away bay, and saw half a corner bay vs Jets a couple weeks back? 

I did tell you that travelling to away games and spending the equivalent of two season memberships on one away game will get less and less appealing.. 

Oh well. I guess we don't want the plate

Officially.. one shot. None on target. Second half. Couldnt stand up when it counted.

Well that was awful.

**** that ref, **** berisha and **** georgevski.

Hey forumites, remind me who's in 7th place at the mo?

Thought Neville was pretty solid tonight, crosses are getting better,

Want to see Cole come on, feel he could be an X factor for us

Fapman season over for you, go and sulk in your seventh heaven. We may have lost but season still not over.

I'm tacky and everyone hates me.

O rly.

 

what?

 

As soon as Nichols and Bridge dried up their run of form, Piovaccari should've been straight back in

 

Going with that thinking, he'd be back out of the team 2 games after that

Still better travellers than your mob PARRA. And most likely always will be.

And won **** all in years....

Yeah, we usually lift to the challenge but they rattled us 2nd half tonight, closed down our game. Would have been a different story if they were down to 10 men, but that's football i guess

Has he ever kissed a girl?

Speaking of allocations to away bays. I seem to recall you couldnt even manage to sell you allocation out for a Grand Final. Supposedly the biggest match of the year.   

People, 
Please don't bite on to Parras post, 

 

If we don't win the plate (likely) it's because we weren't good enough. All those games we dominated but drew, the one thrown away against Brisbane, the Wellington debacle. We had all the chances to taks a stranglehold on this season but wilted.

 

 

That's an accurate assessment IMO. Western Suburbs find themselves in contention for the league due to a strong early season form, and given the draw I think you are still in with a good shout to win the plate. From then on you just need 2 wins to win your first ever A-League title, but I still don't see you beating City, Roar, Adelaide (and Victory too by the looks of it) to get there, not with Bridge leading the line.

 

FFS, how many penalties will Victory be denied tonight? I think they had 4 penalty shouts, 2 of which were stonewall.

I don't buy this 'we weren't good enough' bullshit. Maybe we lacked the mental toughness to deal with the refs unbelievable decision to not send that ******* prick off but we played well enough to score 2 against 10 men. Unfortunately we live in the alternate universe where everything is shite.

In the 1sthalf, but second half it slipped away from us after that 2nd goal
