Buts it is sat amongst ESFC supporters..i would rather a seat roasting in hell than being surrounded by smurfs. At all derby games i need to be surrounded by fellow wanderers, especially so in these desperate times. I will be suffering in the open but will be bliss compared to sitting around those smug bastards.

So would I.

I did it once, sitting with my sisters family and their friends at Allianz for a derby. Never again.

What the **** was I thinking?

I know unpopular for some here but for derby games i think there should be full enforced segregation.

If people with ESFC mates want to knock around together on derby day meet up before or after the game.

Personally it was just annoying & fraying my nerves when I just wanted smurf blood. I think it was the Bulut flare smoke derby. I just remember the bitching about the smoke

In general I agree, can’t tell you the amount of times I’ve seen issues in the mixed bay generally when you mix alcohol & someone celebrating in another persons face or just the stupid back & forth “banter”

At least we can openly wear our colors to matches, I remember in Italy my family always tell us to cover up our  shirts & be quiet when seating in the GA. Although that was a good 5-15 years ago, some things have changed but others haven’t

Gosford will get close to 40c Sunday but a change is due and could rattle through by kick off when it could be wet and steamy. Going to be hard going regardless of the change timing.

Stringer-no-mates..

Still at least Cox is going to feel right at home. Empty stadium, shytehole by the sea and dubious locals...just like Sarfend....

[Frankos187]

Curious to see how different we play with JP at the helm. Dont know why, but I have a feeling we will go 442/4222 similar to Corica and talay...

 

anyone seen them train In a particular setup?

[leslie]

I'm in.

Going to be hot, not much else on so may as well go. 

Why on earth they have 4 pm kick offs in late January/early Feb, at any ground but especially this one, is beyond me. 

[beatsurrender]

In +2 but wont be sitting in the 'Melts' 

[Davo]

After all the waiting it's finally time to put Cox in.

Glad he doesn't have an odd shaped Cox. Also glad he can have an impact.

Can never for the life of me understand why they won’t just schedule all CCM/Jets vs WSW/ESFC games on Saturday arvo/nights to maximise the away travel. It’s such an easy way to bump up crowds.

I know a Sunday at 4pm isn’t that bad to and from Gosford but it’s still a school/work night that’s going to make people apprehensive. Plus if it’s bloody hot which it’s meant to be, it could get pushed back an hour or two which makes people even more apprehensive.

Theres some really easy solutions with the A-League that just continually get ignored...

Worst Sunday evening of the year for families also. Majority of Kindy kids start school Monday. My lad started school Wednesday and was tired out yesterday. Trying to get him in to a routine. Didficult Sunday evening for some familes this one.

My wife was helping kindy start day at her school on Thursday. 

But your right on timing

Plus the game will probably be pushed back due to the heat to a 5pm start time. We had 2 fire alerts from the RFS yesterday afternoon.

On recent form....and I stress on recent form.....you would be hard pressed to be confident of getting even a point from this.  The players are the same bar one. I can't see the same squad all of a sudden turning into world beaters....although it would be great to be proven wrong....lol

Perhaps the players got lost in translation except the Germanic ones (although Transfermarkt has Lopar with an Italian flag under the Swiss flag).

Having an Irishwoman in W-League squad seemed help with the luck of the Irish. Perhaps with a Irishman in the Squad, we might get some luck of the Irish.

Its going to be one of those really poor draws between two poor sides. Its not going to be a game for the purists.

Maybe but what if Cox scores the winning goal?

Best result would be a hatrick on debut or 3 assists on debut or a combination thereof.
