Our stripeys are still the best.

West Sydney Rovers are the St Kilda clones.

White box of doom

f**k me.. That looks horrible.
sh*t shirt too.

Our new stadium = sex

Hang on, aren't you still using EtiTard for 'big' games whereas Heart use it all the time ?

Hearts new Stadium then...

Get your own Stadium.

I said 'our', not 'Victory's'...reading, fellas, I can't stress just how important it is...

By 'our' you mean greater Malben ? 

Or are you one of these new Malben Metro's who swing both ways with a bit of Tard and a bit of Jam tard ?

Wash yer mouth out.

Too. Easy.

Heart = Sydney B

Melbourne Heart... I still can't belive they named the team ''Melbourne Heart'...

atleast it's not Roar, Fury, gLOLry etc.  Not great but slightly better than them 3.   The only thing that could be worse would be having Sydney or Gold Coast in the name

After the ROF, this may be the 2nd best stadium in the league.  (Taken from SFCU).

 

The bottom pic reminds me of Skilled Park with different colour seating.

Looks very cool.
Could possibly be the best Stadium in the A-League.

Hope the pitch stays good though.

Gross.

I strongly urge the use of the parental lockout system when they're playing.  Not suitable for minors.

The shirt's pretty bad as well.

And higher attendance

Hmm.. Are the shorts changing again for the next season?



And here is the link to their small training session they had.
Bolton seems to be happy enough.

Signed acouple more players today, Kliment Taseski, Eli Babalj and Brendan Hamill.

I wonder if any of the league guys are any good at footy, they may be looking for something new now

What's with the green seats?

Actually - it's worse than Sunderland's. Those shorts just complete the pyjamas theme.

Went to the new stadium today (not my pic) -



Is really, really good. Better than the Ring of Fire, to be honest. (it's what the RoF would've been if it didn't accomodate cricket) Am looking forward to sitting in the away corner when the nix play - it's right next to the South End.

The only problem is that the space between the South/North ends and the goals could be smaller but that's what you get when you have rugby teams as tenants too I guess. (though it may only be 1 rugby team now..)

Went today as well. View from my seat -

That's an awesome stadium.

I'm in the south east corner. I'll throw stuff in your general direction.

Away bay view (most important bit)



Obviously the worst you can get in that stadium but still miles better than Etihad. The away section extends down to part of level 1 as well.valeo2010-04-24 16:32:14

lol at you tucked away in Kiwi Korner...

The twats beat Whittlesea 4 - 1 last night, if anyone cares.

At least one Melbourne A-League team can manage a win...

Watching the Australia v. NZ Test.
Leaky Stadium looks amazing. Can't wait to get there.

Just hope the weather is good.Stefan2010-05-07 22:22:00

Melbourne Heart FC is set to display some samba flair during the upcoming Hyundai A-League season after the Club confirmed the signing of Brazilian forward Alex Barbosa de Azevedo Terra.

Known as Alex Terra, the 27-year-old has signed a multi-year deal to join the Heart straight from Brazilian top flight football, becoming the side�s second ever foreign signing, following the capture of former Dutch youth international Rutger Worm.

A versatile attacker who can lead the line, play out wide or as a shadow striker, Terra achieved his greatest success with South American giants Fluminense, claiming the Rio de Janeiro State championship in 2002 and 2005, completing the latter campaign as his club�s top scorer.

Head Coach John van �t Schip was impressed by Terra after watching the Rio de Janeiro born star in action during his recent scouting trip to South America, immediately moving to secure his services for the Heart�s inaugural Hyundai A-League campaign.

Van �t Schip is confident Terra possesses the necessary qualities to make a significant impact and aid the Club in achieving its ambition of building a highly competitive squad.

�I think it is important for Melbourne Heart FC to have a mix of different sorts of players- different nationalities, different qualities, different ages- but players who all want to play good football and win,� he said.

�The club is fortunate to have recruited a South American player like Alex Terra, of such quality and of a good age, who is keen to play in Melbourne.

�He has a great first touch, great pace and an eye for goal, while most importantly, he is extremely versatile and capable of playing anywhere across the attacking line.�

Alex Terra�s performances with Fluminense won him a transfer to Portugal�s Nacional before returning to his homeland where he signed for Ponte Preta in the Campeonato Brasileiro S�rie B, scoring a stunning 19 times in 24 games to earn a return to the top flight with Goias.

The diminutive front man recently completed a stint with Rio Branco in the Campeonato Paulista, the leading State Championship in the Brazilian football system featuring the likes of Ronaldo�s Corinthians and Sao Paolo, scoring against giants Palmeiras in March to confirm his undoubted talent. http://www.mhfcsupporters.com/brazilian-striker-alex-terra-signs-for-heart/
