TBH the My Football Family thing is a load of shit too, a pre-sale period for a game of this nature should start with people who are paid up fucking members of an A-League Club.

'Paid up members of an A League Club' What a load of crap. It is called freedom of choice and first in first served.

How is that any different to Wellington Rugby season pass holders getting priority access to 7s tickets though?

Bollocks, the FFA should sort "us" out first. Cunts too good to support local football should be told to suck it up & wait in line while those of us that do cherry pick the best tickets.

Fuck freedom of choice to the poxy Eurosnobs.

I got an email with a code to access the presales, and I'm pretty sure I'm not a part of the football family?

Buying my tickets tomorrow in the presale

Did you manage to get a ticket Arnies? A mate of mine who is a massive Man United fan and lives in Melbourne tried for an hour online and couldn't get one.


Yep. Football Family presale. I actually have no idea what football family is but i guess i signed up to it at one points. Logged in at 11am, bit slow. But was smooth sailing from there on. 3 tickets.

They had the My Football Family Membership period to purchase so they shouldn't complain really. If they had supported football in oz they might've got one. I could have if I wanted to. Apparently there's a whole buch of comments at the end of a Newspaper article re the sell out from people crying over not getting a ticket & how they should be entitled to one as "they're the biggest fans ever".

Yeah, if you're a season pass holder I believe you are automatically signed up for it, knowingly or not.

I remember last years MLS All Star game, Piotr Nowak of Philadelphia Union was chosen to coach the team, but he was then fired a month before the game. Hilarity ensued.

Vote Arnold. Yeah, Ange is good but he plays a set system and it takes awhile to learn. Arnold would be the better fit for the type of game it is.

Depends if we want the All Stars to be well-coached, or is we want hilarity. For hilarity's sake surely the answer is one of the caretakers, whichever one you think will not get the top job, for well-coached it's probably Arnold (or Ange).

For the most hilarious situation I would've chosen Miron :P disappointing that he isn't a choice anymore

I do find a number of your posts Patrick would struggle to be classified under what is the sort of "general description" of what brings people here - Supporters of Wellington Phoenix FC, which is displayed on the top of this page.

I guess my humour doesn't come across overly well in text. I most certainly am a supporter of the Phoenix, and if you were anywhere near me at a game you would be able to see that quite easily.
