This a curious idea about the humble pie. The Nix have done a great job of humbling themselves this season. I can’t recall anyone going all Kevin Keegan or anything.
Do we think at times you’ve been dickheads, as well as champions? Sure. The preseason behavior on the forum, Toomey giving it to Josh, the fun pitch invasion last season, as well as stopping the bus (which might or might not have been a thing) and the WSW game.
But mostly that’s been a few people off the field who have an odd idea of fandom.
The rest of us have been complementary (and a little sick and jealous) particularly about the way the team has gone about it, especially seeing off Adelaide, the way the Kiwi boys have come home and performed and guys like Verstaete, May and Gallegos being epic.
And if we said we thought we could beat you before the derbies and that early on you were only winning by last minute handball goals, those were both fair calls at the time! Are we supposed to not support our team, on our own forum? Sheeet. Don’t see that as anything to eat humble pie over.
Kinda reminds me of my rellies who can’t celebrate any rugby win without saying soccer is crap.
Anyway, remember when we were chasing the ark of the covenant with Indiana Jones, and we were fighting the Nazis? I expect there’s a lot of people on the forum eating humble pie after their comments about that!
I think I said congratulations in anticipation after the last one. Don’t feel the need to double up. You’re guna get your fair share! Okay, just one more time-
Congratulations captain Sakai-san and team on a fantastic inaugural campaign and being thoroughly deserved A league Premiers!

You’ve misinterpreted my comments a bit, I was just referring to some of the interesting predictions when AFC were 12 odd points clear.
