In RADelaide tonight.

Coach Coolin (the gang) hasn't arrived from Europe yet so 2nd chair Phil Stubbins is in charge.

ARF !

I assume there will be no tele coverage. What's the best way to follow the game (apart from going - I don't fancy my chances of making kick-off)?

I'll get my sources at the ground to keep me posted.

Can you text me HT/FT updates? Won't have interwebs tonight.

Depends if RADelKORB hooks me up.

Christian already calling it 5-3 to us.  The Shin to score at both ends.

Working tonight so can't follow on here - what time's kickoff?

Obviously they don't use the internet very often in Adelaide so don't expect any twitter updates like every other club does.

kick off 10pm NZtime

Someone please find a stream :>

But yeah, with *most* other clubs you can find at least fan ones that do the same thing (much like you do)

Completely forgot about GCU (it's like a week old) and the Heart one, good spotting. Brisbane Roar is official, I've just checked their site and they link to it, the started last year but haven't really used it until recently so I figured it was unofficial.  That makes 6/10 so I'll say my bad  

"Adelaide will be missing injured players Travis Dodd, Robert Cornthwaite, Fabian Barbiero, Lloyd Owusu, Joe Costa and Eugene Galekovic for the clash under the guidance of No. 2 coach Phil Stubbins."

So who DO they have playing? With those players all out we really should give them a bit of an ass kicking.

Are there TAB odds on Ferrante getting a shot on target?

He will, almost guaranteed.

We have Pavlova trialling so don't expect many goals from us

Count the misses from him in that highlight packagevaleo2010-07-16 18:07:15

Just been informed that my counterpart at @adelaidereds will be providing match updates for tonight, available at www.twitter.com/adelaidereds.

Cool - cheers Robb

Wrong vid Valeo.  Think you want the one where we played over there and won 1-0.

Either way, he's already had his fair share of horrible misses in such a short a-league career

It will be interesting to see if the likes of Viera and Pavlova are seriously being considered as potential signings or are just 'might-as-well' trials.

I hope we have a few better credentialed players we are talking to. (though to be honest if we just got Jade North and a couple of semi decent attacking players to come off the bench I wouldn't be that upset - our squad is very strong as is, just need a bit more cover)valeo2010-07-16 20:27:13

I hope Ferrante gets a gig somewhere, thoroughly nice guy

Is Owusu really still at Adelaide? Would be so great if he is. So many belly laughs last season.

 I also thought Owusu had left. He had a trial in China after last season finished.

Starting lineup: Paston, Muscat, Durante, Sigmund, Hearfield, Lia, Daniel, Diego, Macallister, Greenacre, Mirjan Pavlovic. Bench: Brown, Lovemore, Musa, Gould.

Nope, Owusu is still there. Apparently injured, though.

No Ifill?

Guessing the hamstring..

Pretty weak lineupvaleo2010-07-16 21:07:36

That is a god lineup - if Diego can sort his sh*t out or we can get one more player in there that's a really good XI and still far from full strengthjames dean2010-07-16 21:08:50

wish we could watch that, so no lochy n no iffill??? any1 no why

Lochy and Leo probably still resting and apparently Ifill got a bit injured last week...most likely the reason. Best not to risk him

He was decent against Newcastle when we beat them 1-0 away in 40 degrees but apart from that he's been sh*te.

About a thousand there.

perhaps he feels the cold

No Magno Vieira or whatever is name is then. Is that expected?

Cheaper to fly Pavlovich from Sydney than Magno from here ?

hell, if it's come jepoardising transfer decision-making based on saving a bit of money on an air-fair we might need a sharper acting-ceo

if we've made a decision on the Cro-Mangon Man already that's fine, but if he's worth another look he's worth buying a trans-tas ticket for

jeopardising - oh f**k it i give uptigers2010-07-16 21:54:42

Where are people getting updates?

I'm getting texts from an Adelaide fan, but they are also tweeting...@adelaidereds

Players on the pitch.  Both sides in away strips.
