Fek we are bottom of table now!

Fek we are bottom of table now!

This weekends match against Perth is going to be soo vital now!

The reasons are clear - we dont take enough chances and we give silly goals away. In between we are sweet!

No problem fellas, we're just poised for our late push for the play-offs. The run home starts on Friday  

Oh sh*t I wasn't expecting Perth to win. 

Hopefully the long flight, jet lag, and an unseasonal southerly blast all conspire to return Perth to their pants form of earlier in the season.  Colostomy went off with a hamstring pull so hopefully he won't play.  If we could get the ref from Saturday to award us dubious penalties that would help too.

Yep, we'll push on and make the minor semi at least. Next year we'll be minor premiers.

If we win this won't we be equal with Melbourne on points? and if our goals for and against is better we will be 6th.

Assuming they lose, yes.

it was good of the Dom not to put the table in this morning's paper 

So frustrating, even half the points we have thrown away would see us set for the playoffs.  Not to mention the games we dominated and lost, like on Friday what was the corners 15-0 or close to.  We are making so many chances lets put them on goal, even just doing that has gotta be good for a rebound tap in per game.

They seemed to be more worried about the fact that they (the media) got snubbed by the Galaxy.

It was a little rant wasn't it? I chuckled as the writer of the piece seemed to think it detracted from the crowd's pleasure. How he imagined that a little contretemps between media types would mess up my day is beyond me?  

at the risk of stating the obvious it was indicative of the power of the press to decide just what is and isn't 'news'

clearly Fred Woodcock wouldn't cross the road to .... ..  the "Fat Controller" if he was on fire.

we are bottom the league

Certainly is.

We would need to win by 4-how much they lose by.

There are good and bad things about the weekend results. Yes, bad for us that Perth won, but good that Melbourne lost. There's only one thing for it - start winning some f**king games and getting points. They don't grow on trees. Start doing that and there are possibilities. Fail to do that, and we are staying right where are as of this weekend just gone. Six games to go, so plenty to play for yet.

You know how much Melbourne is going to lose by this weekend then?

This Friday against Perth is our " Cup Final"  We HAVE to win, simple as that.

 for you's to go 6th we need to beat the tards and u need to get a good win aganist the glory. hope it happens tards sitting 7th on the ladder woopiiii i would be over the moon hate them bastards

Perhaps we could bribe Qantas to fly the Perth team here via Denver (or Vladivostok perhaps) so they'll be so jetlagged they'll be able to do precious little and we can score all the goals we need to get out of our negative goal difference.loyalgunner2007-12-04 13:38:01

You guys just need more defensive midfielders.

Johnson and Brown are fine..

I haven't seen enough of the phoenix play unfortunately...I am a fan of Browns after the Wales game...just listening to the podcast talking about Felipe, Daniel and Smeltz being the key players...I do think it would be nice to have a player that oppositions fear stalking the midfield ahead of our back 3/4 winning ball, protecting the defence, giving plenty of ball and space to the front guys...

Melbourne will do much better with Kevin Bloody Muscat back but we can only hope Adelaide humiliate them in front of their few remaining fans. Some guy in the sport section of The Age newspaper gave Muscat a real serve yesterday: said he was a thug back in the Geelong u-9s and is a thug still. No christmas card for him from the Muscat household this year!

too many home losses and draws, this is unacceptable for a professional team BUT we are new so in time this should improve....i hope
