Thought exactly the same myself !!

Smurfs are in trouble even without the Southern expansion team. They haven't really kicked on membership and crowds wise despite their recent dominance and have no real growth areas in their (now) standard catchment area whereas the Wanderers and SWS can capitalise on significant growth in NW and SW Sydney respectively.

Damned United might defect then !!

Don't we have that with the Mariners?

In +6 but expect by far the lowest ANZ derby crowd yet....we'll struggle to crack 30k

I can't help thinking that there's nothing worse than having a bye every week....yet another momentum killer

If you think they are bad here, pop across to Facebook !!

I like Brattan too but which one would we get? The one who was pushing for a Socceroos place or the 'lazy ****' one?

All in all I'm happy. Actually followed the game in my office on Villa TV and the action was so end-to-end I didn't get much work done !!

Joke of a club....blight on the A League...

Lucky we now have you to keep us informed

I suspect that 'Sold Out' may only see a 16k crowd but if it does reach 20k then it will be a bigger crowd than at more recent regular Big Blue games at Allianz....figure that one out !!

Roly was at the gym this morning with the injured Bridge, Tongyik and Tokich so I doubt he'd be in the frame tonight.

Despite their poor start, Newcastle are still playing some decent stuff. We need to be at our best to get a result tonight

I knew the Sotirio reference would prick a few ears !!
