But yes Central Coast trips were ace. Loads of Westies invading Gosford, drinks at the pub, a march, a win, trip home.

Blacktown vs Blacktown by the sea - ah yes those were the days. Mind you it is always really hot in that away section - except for the infamous game in the rain - far out that was a good night - would have been drier in Brisbane Water but we didn't care:good:

Difference also was connection between fans and that team. When that team ran out on the pitch pre game warm up they would get a massive roar, all on their feet. Players and fans were so pumped up...40mins before kick off, they were as up for it as the RBB in the stands. It turned some average players into absolute 90min machines. This ingredient is the hardest to get back, but it comes from players running through brick walls for the shirt.

Feedback loop isn't it. That team played for the shirt and won games, the crowd got behind them, they played for the shirt and won games. It went round in a circle.

We broke that first season at ANZ

Thinking back to the game in the rain - that was ****n 12 years ago!
A few short months later nsw police provided extra “protection”, video cameras and all, and the terrace was shaking when Juric scored a late equaliser.

Then there was the S4 walkout, when the RBB was so active for 30 minutes that the terrace seemed in danger of collapsing, and I very nearly did. And then there was the S5 game when Tyson was red carded, and Santa sealed it in front of the RBB.

After that I seem to have gotten tired of away games, apart from a couple of games against the vic in Melbourne. No more Gosford, Newcastle, Brisbane, Adelaide, Wullington. I wonder why…

Kaltack was suspended for the last ACL game so most likely didn't travel.

Sainsbury could be back as could Doka. Faisal came off injured in their ACL game. Edmondson is out for the season.

Yeah..that rain game was a week night i think...like I remember going from work to central and jumping on the train...with a quick change to my wanderers top. My son was 5 years old and in bed at home. Now he is 17.....and usually still in bed at home :rolleyes:

I remember Hektik looking wistfully through the fence after he had been ejected by the police for being somewhat of an undesirable. 

That, the Saucebottle and Captain Pedo copping a well-deserved ridiculing, and us heading back down the Freeway with 3 points in our pocket - those were halcyon days.

Singing ‘this is the best trip I’ve ever been on’ and actually meaning it 😢

Looks like Mata is comming back. He posted on insta training and he is in Staj's extended squad.

It also looks like Sainsbury and Mikael Doka look are back for the Mariners.

@EmMac..just so you know...this doesn't change my thoughts about you being the main jinx here :P

I think you meant to type good luck charm. I was at last Sunday's game and we won 💪....

But to put your mind at easy, i can't make this one. However i will be sending 'win you muthafarrkers' vibes towards Gosford

Im going to distribute a roster for the next few games. You'll each be given time slots to monitor these 2. @Neverbloom isnt allowed to post pregame at all, and @EmMac needs to be locked in a small dark room until the final whistle. Failure to show up for your shift will result in punishment - you'll be required to sit with @Unlimited and wing man him on game day
