Next home game is Black Friday.

Suggestion is lets make Westpac Stadiums lovely yellow seats work in our favour, 

Everybody dress in black and nobody sit next to anybody else.

The stadium would look sort of like this

A Black Stripy stadium.

And yes, I am posting after drinking most of the afternoon.

You are joking arnt you. Depending on a certain result early in the morning all your going to get for the first 3 days is either over the top celebration  or slash the wrist end of the world hype. Before the haters come out i hope they win and im getting up for it.

Well we can ride on the feel good factor or make use of the backlash angst.

looking at it myself too. Actually I think if you show a photo id and proof it is you, anyone with the name "Jason" should be given free entry. Eg: Jason Pine.

not the worst idea... single lines might be a bit hard to achieve but it could be divided into large blocks to achieve something like this but with empty yellow seats instead of people dressed in yellow

Not a possibility for the immediate future, would need to some serious effort and organisation, but shouldn't be discounted as an idea for the longer term future, should there be one.

Line up? (assuming Moss, Weemac, Fenton, Doyle, and let's say Rufer all selected for All Whites friendly v Oman)

Italiano

Manny, Siggy, Dura

What did the Fox say, Riera, Vinniesta, Danaskos

Powell, Roly, Krishna

Bench: Gulley, Appiah, Sarpong, A-Rod, Ridenton

Kotahitanga. We are one.

I think this is probably more likely at this stage.

If not A-Rod and Roly drop back and probably Powell joins the frontline, with Appiah on the bench.

Still too soon. Wouldn't want to risk it. Better just give him the season off.

Weak trolling.  Once Vinnie had gone off  did we score from a corner?

Did we bollocks!

Fiji have announced their squad for the upcoming international friendlies against Vanuatu on 7 November and 11 November at Port Vila Stadium, Vanuatu.

Wellington Phoenix striker Roy Krishna has been selected to co-captain the side alongside Ba defender Alvin Singh, with Krishna only available for the second match due to club commitments.

So guessing Krishna will be unavailable for this game, along with the All Whites

Hey I don't know if this has been raised, but could our "Chants" be put up on the big  screen to get the whole cake tin chanting. I remember reading that Westpac are behind us so would that be worth a try??

Reckon Appiah might be more likely to come in than Ridenton, with Roly in midfield. Rogerson on the bench.

Piney was saying on Twitter that Winston Reid, Tommy Smith and Glen Moss won't be in the All Whites squad, he expects both Fenton and Doyle to get called up. Couldn't come at a worst time with Lia out injuried as well.

Actually forgot about that, saw Krishna got a call up for Fiji as well, so he will be out for the game too

I don't know, that looks a pretty good team still and not as bad as we used to have it. Will be weak on the bench though.

Not really a C team, the loss of McGlinchey and Krishna hurt but we have more depth than previous seasons

After yesterdays game I would say Gulley would start.

It's really not bad, we loose 6 players to international duty if I count correctly:

Krishna

WeeMac

Rufer

Doyle

Fenton

Rogerson

Of that only Krishna and WeeMac are big impacts right now, Fenton hasn't been performing, and Doyle isn't a regular started. Rogerson and Rufer don't even make the bench most times.

That actually shows you just how bizarre selection policy is, Hudson picks not just amateur players over professional players who are plying their craft in Europe but squad players for a team that is sitting 7th in the A-League.

I guess we can be thankfull that Moss has personal problems (sorry Mossy) and Siggy and Durnate have both retired from international duty.
