Western Sydney Wanderers vs Newcastle Jets 16/02/2018 7:50PM

Back on topic, it’s gameday. Let the tedium of a day at work before a game begin. 

I don’t really have anything against the jets TBH and I’ve got plenty of respect for how Merrick has turned them around this season. but **** them.

Welcome to fortress spotless mofos. (Ok, that was probably a bit much) 

is it kick off yet?

That Peter Green is probably the worst of the bunch, I admire referees normally, only human, some one got to do it or wont have a game, but for me he is below standard sorry.

earlier in thread did he do home game v Roar 0-2 loss a few weeks back, the ref that day butchered the match, they were allowed to kick **** out of Roly all game long and the tosspot booked Roly for naff all!

That was Adam Fielding. 

In x3. First game since returning from overseas so I'm ******* pumped

I am happy with a draw the Jets are just on fire at the moment. Hoping Ikonomidis backs up last weekend performance if we are to get the win I think he may be key for us

In.

We should be brushing aside teams such as the Jets

In..... don't know what to expect. The Jets have been good and pleasant to watch. We had good and really bad moments...so it could go either way.

Welcome back/home, whatever it is.

Hold on to your hats. Gombau didn't say "We will win" but "We need to win". This could get ugly :-)

---

"For sure, it should be (about revenge)," said Gombau. "We spoke with the boys and we need to have this inside us to try to play a good game, win the game and bring this to our fans that travelled to Newcastle and felt the big loss. [...]  "We need to win and have three more points that will help us get a good position on the table."

Out

In x 5. We better hurry up though. Should be a good game. COYW

Same starting line up as Sunday. Stick with a winning formula I guess

Lineup (same as last week except Clisby out for Cejudo I think)

Vedran, Llorente, Thwaite, Hamill, Risdon, Roly, Carrusca, Lustica (hmm), Bridge, Riera, The Ikon

Subs: Suman, Santa, Sotirio, Cejudo, Baccus

Just had a nice burger as Abattoir Blues and heading to spotless soon. having a lovely red and all is well with the world. Ish. Cautiously  excited. 

out - been sick for 3 days...but WSW win by +2...COYW!!

Having a drink at the members bar.....I don't like spotless but I hate ANZ so much more.

Not many here i was expecging a decent turn out.

How long before the club realises the practice countdown is an embarrassment.

Coyw

Out.

Fed up with coach, team, club, VAR, ffa, a-league, olympic park, david gallop etc etc

Or had to take my kids to do kids stuff.

Either way i'm not there and following on my phone.

WTF! How the **** was that offside! **** off! VAR killing it again. For all at the ground...it was a good goal!

Soft penna lol They knew they ****ed up with the offside so squared it up lol

VAR is a joke.

Haha var takes away legit goal 3 min after the fact then the ref gives a dodgy pen a minute later.

A league in a nutshell.

**** Ikonomidis is good.

Doesn't the font on the screen look like something from a rugby league from the 70s. Ch7 with Rex Mossop?

So was it an offside or not?....from here it looked legit.

They showed another angle on the TV about 10 mins later and was the view the VAR was looking at.....it might have been JUST offside but was very ******* close......still bullshite.

Who knows.

They had two camera angles, neither of which were side on. So any footage was impacted by parallax error. Hence why the first view from the right of the players he looked clearly onside. And why their second zoomed in angle (found 5 minutes later) looked marginally offside.

Yes waiting for the flashing R in the top corner when the do replays late 70s match of the day stylee

The fact that we still don’t know if it was or wasn’t offside means the only obvious error was made by the Var.. 

As meh as spotless is this is so much better than anz I’m actually enjoying myself
